OAN, a Dependable Trump Promoter, Faces a ‘Death Blow’
nyslimes ^

Posted on 07/26/2022 6:05:49 PM PDT by janetjanet998

The future of One America News, which established itself as a powerful voice in conservative media by promoting some of the most outlandish falsehoods about the 2020 election, is in serious doubt as major carriers drop it from their lineups and defamation lawsuits threaten to drain its finances. By the end of this week, the cable network will have lost its presence in some 20 million homes this year. The most recent blow came from Verizon, which will stop carrying OAN on its Fios television service starting Saturday. That will starve the network of a major stream of revenue: the fees it collects from Verizon, which counts roughly 3.5 million cable subscribers. In April, OAN was dropped by AT&T’s DirecTV, which has about 15 million subscribers.

In its statement announcing the termination of its OAN deal, Verizon said only that it had been “unable to reach an agreement to continue carrying One America News,” and made no mention of the public pressure campaigns it faced from activist groups like Media Matters, which had been calling on cable providers to drop the network. A company spokeswoman declined to comment further on Tuesday.

You can get OAN directly for about $30 per year.

How does OAN compare to Newsmax?

My cable company, DirecTV, cancelled OAN. That’s why I’ll be looking for a new cable company when my present contract expires.

Could merge with Breitbart and create a channel to rival Fox.

OANN should’ve taken the same route that RAV (Real America’s Voice) did.

Offer their programming for free (to the viewer).

We stream and pay $2.50/month, to subscribe to OANN/KlowdTV.

Well worth the $. I hope they can stay afloat.

If all the OAN fans would drop cable/satellite and subscribe to OAN directly ($4.49-$4.99/mo.) then they would probably be better off financially (OAN).

That is the way.

We cut cable after the 2020 election and never looked back.

As soon as UVerse dropped OAN, I dropped UVerse and started subscribing to OAN Live.

I subscribed to OAN Live. It’s easy and inexpensive.

Just go to OANN.com website.
