Imagine, this from networks who are about to hand off the reins of one white male network news anchor to another white male network news anchor.

How shocking.

Can any of you remember the last time you saw liberal religious news reports, liberal religious programming, etc. on TV in the US?

My answer: never.

It has never been on TV that I can remember. It's been all Billy Graham sorts of shit, all the time, including among Catholics (remember Fulton Sheen?) and their current network. You also don't see much of anything about secular moral values, or programming on, for, or about other religions. It is usually WASP or fundie Protestant stuff, or a tip of the hat to the right wing Catholic line.
No wonder some many dumb fucks think the US is a Christian country, eh?

Maybe instead of demonstrating in front of and against government institutions, we should be shutting down people's access to the networks, eh?
