CNN Internationale is to the left of CNN USA.

My dentist offers a choice. I usually go for HGTV or History while in the chair.

CNN has veered left so much that they are running in circles.

CNN makes so many left turns I call it NASCAR.

1. Politely of course, ask the agents to change the channel or switch the sets off.

2. Write the airport manager (again, most politely) asking for removal or options from the CNN anti-American, anti_America activism.

23 Mar: Variety: Pierce Brosnan, CNN’s Van Jones Speak Out About Climate Change at UCLA IoES Gala
By Ariana Brockington
The UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability held its annual gala Thursday night with celebrities, philanthropists, and business leaders to raise funds to protect the environment...
“I know for sure we don’t have any throw-away species. We don’t have any throw-away resources. We don’t have any throw-away children or throw away neighborhoods either,” Van Jones said. “It’s all precious. The idea that we have a disposable planet and disposable people—that is the sin.”...

Keely Shaye Brosnan mentioned President Trump’s administration. “Those of you who support these values have likely noticed the tendency of the current administration to cast anyone who disagrees with their agenda in a light that suggests we are somehow un-American,” she said. “Well, I’m here to say that I believe the environment is a bi-partisan issue.”

A highlight of the night included a guitar signed by Ed Sheeran being sold for $6,000 during the event’s auction...

Why don’t the airports just refuse CNN’s money?

“If I traveled a lot I’d carry a universal remote with me and change all the channels myself.”

Good luck with that! There are NO OTHER CHANNELS. CNN owns, by contract with the airports, the right to exclusively broadcast their channel and only theirs.

I vote that all airports air reruns of “Rocky and Bullwinkle”. The show is written to appeal to all age groups, has a sly sense of humor and is just darn funny.

This confirms what I have speculated for years.

The only way CNN can attract their viewers is by force.

They have to pay for them to watch.

Well, that just sucks. I’ve noticed the VA hospital usually has DIY type shows on

“I’ve noticed the VA hospital usually has DIY type shows on.”

That’s probably because even CNN does stories about how bad the VA is today.

But for me, when my dad was treated for bone cancer in the 1970’s ( and he died relatively young, at 62 from it), the VA Hospital in Palo Alto, CA was wonderful! When the treatments at Stanford got too costly, he was able to get the same doctors to treat him across town at the VA since he was a WWII Navy Vet.

Speaking of sin, in just two sentences, Mr Jones seems to condemn himself and publicly voice his dishonesty and hypocrisy. Throw away children indeed. A democrat dunce be he.

use the TV remote control function on your smart phone

Is that an app? I didn't know that I had such an thing on my phone.

My LG phone has it built in. There are apps but they don’t work on all TV’s.

I put on whatever channel I want when, for example, waiting at the doctors office. At the Airport sometimes all you can do it turn off the TV that is playing CNN. Not always able to change the channel.

Just need the make of the TV, then scan the list of TV in the LG and most of the time it gets it on the first try.

veers left

Veers? This is like suggesting that the Trieste might disappearing below the waves after it has been exploring the Mariana's Trench.

You could go to H.R. and demand a safe space.
