OAN???

I'll have to look that up

One America News Network, also known as One America News, is a far-right pro-Trump cable channel founded by Robert Herring, Sr., and owned by Herring Networks, Inc.,

so, is Robert Herring a known racist?

I heard of it only because they allow one of theirs at the press briefings and they always ask the softest of softball leading questions.

It's trying to outflank Fox News, who according to some folks is now too liberal.

Never heard of it.  Certainly not my cup of tea.

Coaches are always telling kids that EVERYTHING they put on social media can have repercussions, so they need to understand that.  It's Gundy's right to wear that shirt, but it's not necessarily a good idea and it's obviously not going to be free from repercussions.

It's a f'ing t-shirt. Would it be OK if it said "CNN" on it? 

Is this where we are?

WTF is wrong with people?

OAN isn't news. It's just basic propaganda. It's not like CNN and should be rejected because propaganda loosely disguised as news should be rejected.

it's a message on a T-shirt

it could say, Black Lives Matter

it could say many things - It could say "Boomer Sooner"  it doesn't

it's a statement - apparently the grown man with the mullet is proud of the statement

I lean to thinking every news outlet is "propaganda", some are slicker at it than others.

Yeah but simply comparing these propaganda networks to CNN as if they are remotely the same thing is kind of silly. It's like saying a Harlequin romance and Romeo and Juliet are the same quality because they both contain words.
