Blowhards with opinions and no facts. All real news comes from Associated Press and Reuters. Newsmax is fiction land.

Newsmax needs to catch up on the production end. They are very amaturish! I want to see field reporters and live coverage of Whitehouse briefings. They also need a live morning news show. I want to wake up, while getting for work, get the news... not a documentary!

Their "around the web" and "special reports" sections on their websites are all only bait and click advertisements for useless snake oil products.
It's completely editorial opinions, there are no facts. They are anti-science and their opinions are just downright anti-American democracy. This is like watching state tv in North Korea, complete and utter lies for an uneducated or mentally imprisoned audience.
If a fascist dictator needed a pedestrian looking news outlet to spew their lies, this and OAN would be it.
They should not dare call themselves news or journalists because they are an utter disgrace to the honorable profession.
Unless you enjoy dictatorships and living like Kurt Vonnegut's 1984, steer clear.

Opinion
November 13, 2020

I find the "News" coverage to be noting more then opinion. I'll stick with Fox. At least fox has the balls to tell the truth.

I am a die-hard conservative so I WANT to love this station. The set seems "B" rate and some of the shows are awkward and unprofessional (constantly interrupting guests, awkward music and skits). I'm hoping the quality improves as they excel. God bless America!

Good reporting explaining current news on ballot and voting fraud indicating a stolen election from Trump. Recounts are in process in 5+ states with thousands of volunteers hand-counting ballots. Statements are being taken from those who have witnessed illegal activity (ballot dumping, date changes of vote, votes from dead people. These claims are being pursued by legal authorities. Hand counted ballots are being counted at this point hopefully going in favor of Trump and against Biden. Only complaint on Newsmax TV are the frequency of same commercials - every commercial break is a Medicare bit with Joe Namath! In the space of 15 minutes which may be 3-4 pieces of reported news and discussion, Joe wil l be on 3 times or more. At some point, we have to mute the commercial. Also, the advertising of "Trumpy Bear" (made in China) is demeaning, in our opinion, to President Trump. Pulling the american flag blanket out of the back of the toy is in poor taste. The $40.00+ for the toy should go to the Trump campaign against voter fraud. Newsmax should find another worthwhile piece of merchandise (Made in America) to sell which ALL may wish to use with part of the proceeds going to the President's campaign.

I am so relieved to finally have a channel that I can watch my news on that shows both sides of the table. I myself am republican however I believe in seeing both sides. Newsmax does just that. I also enjoy the variety of hosts and commentators they have. Great job newsmax!

Best news program
November 13, 2020

I used to be an avid Fox News viewer, but I became disenchanted with their anchors and babbling liberal contributors who constantly lied. Discovered Newsmax now Fox News is dead to me.

I have been a followers of NewsMax for the past weeks and they seem to be honest and sincere. Unlike the medias they are providing viewers a fake news mainly because they are liberal who doesn't tell the truth.

It would seem to me the the only thing that is real news on NewsMax is the word "News" in their title. It is very apparent that they don't practice any real objective journalism there, which makes them pretty much all the cable "News" outlet except they make no attempt whatsoever at being anything but a tool for neocons.

Too far right. Obvious bias in hopes of growing by telling or condoning lies. Management seems to have made the decision to model their business very similar to Fox. NOT for me!
