Buffoonery
November 19, 2023

Rage inducing seniors with utter buffoonery. Humiliating to have to endure elders screaming at the screen. Elder abuse at best.

I have to turn it off when they put their commercials on because they seem to be twice as loud has their news broadcast.

Poorly written app.
November 6, 2023

I'm using a fire stick on my tv. I constantly need to sign in. The app randomly locks up. Strange video problems on the sign in screen. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and I'm still having problems. At this point it doesn't work at all.
Update: I reset my fire stick to factory defaults and it's more stable when loading the app. I still get an occasional error message but then I click on clear cache and it loads. I only had these problems on one of three fire sticks.

Switching back to fox
November 3, 2023

I've really counted on Newsmax. Now they say streaming must sign up to watch regularly broadcast shows. I've gone back to Fox. So very sad that money has taken first seat.

Sad fan
November 3, 2023

I am very disappointed that Newsmax went off air live for free and is now $4.99 a month. It was the only dependable news to watch and now there is nothing. I'm not paying for another television app, it's so ridiculous.

Greedy!
November 3, 2023

Marketed as a free news service and talked down about other news services that charged.
Now they are exactly the same. Hypocrites.
Not about informing public anymore. About the money when people are hurting the most. Typical greed.

Disappointing
November 3, 2023

I've watched newsmax free streaming for a long time, but now I have deleted it from all my devices. I never thought they would follow the swamp and be obligated to cable t.v., direct, it goes to show you that nothing cannot be bought out!

Pay to stream Newsmax?
November 2, 2023

I like a few of the shows, however this new paid streaming and phone app is a bad move. The app does not work well, the streaming service screams with commercials and only 4 shows a day are worth watching. I deleted streaming and phone app and stopped the dozens of daily text. Bad move Newsmax, should have focused on viewers

Watched Newsmax religiously. Overlooked the terrible app. Drops viewers all the time is very unreliable. Now to add insult to injury they want to charge for the mediocre service. I'm out, there are other sources for news. Sorry Newsmax. Bad move on your part.

The other extreme
October 27, 2023

No better than the opposition news channels. Just the another extreme world view. No one wants to meet in the middle where compromise is required.

How on Earth..
October 10, 2023

..are otherwise, decent and moral people, still buying Trump's rhetoric?
From the About page "Newsmax has become a go-to place for readers and viewers seeking real news." And yet the recent poll overwhelmingly says that trump is the victim of a political witch hunt.
Trump will go down in history as the greatest snake oil salesman of all time, because of websites like this that perpetuate his fables.

WW2 is not news!
October 2, 2023

Seems every 5 minutes, this channel does an expose on WWII, Opra, or some other bs besides news. I gave this channel a chance when fox sold out, but getting alot tired of Newsmax.

WORST REPORTERS
September 9, 2023

The reporters are very unattractive, boring and stiff. Can't listen to the monotone reports.They also
Need to stop putting down Fox news. Their whole mission is to get ratings, but their appeal is
Lacking.

Uncensored by the DC bureacrats, not funded by CCP aligned corporations. Not controlled by CCP ministry of information like all major internet news sources. Doesn't accept CCP Money in exchange for publishing propaganda. Newsmax is a beacon of truth amidst a totalitarian medias war on the American nation.

Kobe Bryant Video
August 18, 2023

Kobe Bryant sexually attacked a young girl in Colorado not far from where we lived!
It is a disgrace that you eulogize him making him to be some sort of role model...
Shame on you!

Someone please explain to this guy how it works. He's supposed to let his guests speak. Instead he talks over every single one, every single time! It's hard enough to listen to the news through all of the commercials so when you finally give us some meaningful content from a knowledgeable guest, tell your Anchor to shut up!

This isn't news! A reported should keep their personal opinions out!
They give their little comments to influence viewers.
Keep to the facts!
Just started watching this and I've heard this so many times,
" I've heard, I feel, I think"
Give use facts not your opinion. Don't care what your reporters think because they don't.
They are not qualified to think. All they have to think about is what suit they will have on.
There is nothing special about this. Just another news nation trying to advertise.
