Gaetz to join OANN

From Brian Stelter's Reliable Sources column for CNN:

"Former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz is expected to announce he is joining One America News Network as an anchor," CNN's Kristen Holmes scooped last night, citing a source. OANN lacks distribution and big-name hosts, so Gaetz will be a big gain, although he may feel like he's shouting into the void, given the channel's small audience.

>> When I called OANN president Charles Herring last night, he declined to comment on Gaetz's hiring, but a quick search of the channel's website showed a "coming soon" page for "The Matt Gaetz Show..."

Even a drunken Justice partying with an RV full of billionaires at Bohemian Grove would notice the flies coming out every time he opens his mouth.

Tough to watch, especially on prime time cable.

...on Apple TV, Roku, etc. now that they have been dropped by AT&T's DirecTV and other networks.

ONAN...er...OANN is also buying time on marginal TV sub-channels around the country to broadcast their "OAN Plus" service to those who have standard over-the-air antennas, which have become more popular again with the changeover to digital TV broadcasting.

...serial prevaricators. Well, at least it's ONAN...er...OANN, which no one has ever heard of.

I'm sure Gaetz will enjoy the rather provocative sartorial choices of Chanel Rion, who is currently OANN's big "star". Although since she's over 18, she might not really be his type.

I remember when these pervs were ostracized from general society.

I guess he's a white male and right wing, he gets a pass.

America is such a pathetic country now.
