Sky is pulling FNC off the air in Britain and Ireland, claiming that 21st Century Fox have made the decision as it's not making any money.

Any connection with Murdoch's continuing efforts to buy Sky TV are purely coincidental. :Bang

Interesting that the Guardian has the people they interviewed for this article bashing FNC, and yet they're begging for online subscriptions because no one wants to pay to read them, on line or in print.

Do I really want to risk another board warning from the WWoW mods calling out the BS from the Guardian? Naw, I'll pass...have fun brainiac and adj40.

That being said, I always appreciate your caps mphillip. Thank you.

I wonder how many people won't pay to read them because those people are staunch FNC supporters. :TickTock

LJS, nice way to call out BS from the Guardian but not call out BS from the Guardian. :Victory It's something I'd do! I read the article and I agree, there was BS in it. Murdoch was slinging a load of it in his excuses for pulling FNC from Sky. :jetserl

The good news is that while Sky have taken FNC off, I still have FNC, MSNBC, CNN, HLN etc, so the caps won't stop.

Didn't know you got FNC. Probably the same international version in Mexico that used to skip Red Eye.
