Wanted to thank you for offering guests and tenants news in the Harwood lobby . During this time in our nations history, there feels like a great divide is developing in our country. To help minimize this divide, would it be possible to keep the news more neutral. Fox News tends to see the news from the far right perspective, which can be offensive for many guests and tenants. I know the Harwood Center wants to be a place of inclusion and not a place a division. Thanks again for all the good you provide.

Perhaps you of the building management feel that a majority of your tenets (and our guests/clients) are too dang liberal, and thus could deserve to be shaken from our "Mainstream Media" echo chamber with a strong morning dose of FOX News. Or maybe Anderson Cooper gives you the heebie jeebies. Whatever, I'm game. I'm open to other points of view, so why don't we try and land on a news channel more within the realm of journalistic objectivity, as opposed to outright lies and racist/sexist propaganda? How about BBC or NHK? Oh, and f you choose RT or One America News, then we'll know you're just trolling us.

Let's watch something a little more serious and trustworthy than Fox News, like a 24/7 loop of Teletubbies.

I'm not sure that Fox is the best content supporting the interest of the building or the Harwood brand.

Would that be the FAKE NASA channel? (The one with the moon landing.)

CNN was a near neutral news source. It is inappropriate for the building's owners to attempt to influence tenants' thinking by forcing us to hear right-oriented political viewpoints portrayed as "news."

Everytime I see the Fox on in the lobby I get worried that my father-in-law is coming for a business lunch. Don't scare me like that.

I previously complained to building management about the switch to Fox News -- which is justifiably perceived by many to be sexist, racist, and divisive. Personally, I find it offensive to be forced to watch a network where women were routinely sexually harassed and demeaned.
Common areas should be free from the polarizing viewpoints that Fox is famous for. CNN, a music station, cooking channel, or sports channels would be more appropriate.

I'm also tired of the forced political conversations this forces with coworkers and others in the building. It is not conducive to a pleasant work environment.

An alternative could be switching off every other week. But yeah, if we pick one, I'd prefer CNN.

Any channel that covers the impeachment hearings will be acceptable.

Fox news is sensationalist journalism. They bury the truth behind bias and opinion.

Fox News is dishonest and divisive. Anything else would be preferable.

I didn't bury myself in student loan debt for this.
