“Not perfect but at least it gives you a point of view from the right, like fox use to do,”

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

The regular Newsmax TV was so horrible to watch. It was operated by people that didn't know how to do their jobs. The promise of Newsmax Plus and how wonderful and professional it will be, fooled me in paying for subscription. Another poorly run and edited joke. I only watch President Trump rallies on Newsmax. Other than that this is a worthless joke of an operation. Poor editing, unfinished programs and even half cut commercials. I will never get my money back.

Rob Finnerty needs to let guests talk. He can't stop running over them. I believe he thinks he has a better opinion than anyone else.

Needs adjustment

Love Newsmax generaly but Rob Finnity could let guests speak instead of trying to run his own opinions over them. Alex Kramer should be moved to the weekend. She is a bit too giddy for the morning news.

Would love to see them put money into the technical equipment. It's so frustrating whe stories get dropped and or postponed due to screen freezing and audio outages. It happens every 15 minutes! Either get new tech people or better equipment please!

I'm so mad newsmax kicked Greg Kelly off prime time to add Greta! We LOVE Greg Kelly!

She is so damn boring and has zero
Expression or personality while reporting during her time frame on newsmax. She just isn't one bit interesting to listen to, not to mention she just sucks as a reporter. I went back to fox when you added Greta and kicked Greg Kelly to a later slot. What's wrong with the producer, is he blind, asleep? She sucks!

Make some changes and put Greg back on prime time! You hurt your ratings by adding a washed up name, bc she even sucked back when she was with fox!

Hey I'm a high level
Professional, in between jobs, need me to come run your nightly line up?

Go from zero, to a trillion ratings and listen to your audience!

It's not to late! Oh., and get Tucker and you are golden newsmax! That's one dude that kept us going back to fox. The one and only reason!

Week days Morning male host is excellent. Female hosts are lacking. All appear young, inexperienced and some are annoying. Need a serious more mature co-host for Rob. Rita Cosby comes to mind.
I would love to watch the morning program, however turn to Fox business on most days because of female hosts.

This channel is Free and I would hate them to be canceled. This channel is the exact opposite of fox. They are too far right. I truly wish they were in the middle. Truth be said... Trump did some Great things! Trump is not a politician. Plain an simple... One man cannot change all politics in 4 years. And there are good people on both sides as long as they are not trying to break things and kill people. Please stop acting like Trump is Jesus Christ... He really is not, just in case you don't know.

Tip for consumers:
Do your own fact checking ALWAYS!!!!

I am a fan of Newsmax, but am considering ditching this news outlet. The intermission music volume is elevated to the point of nausea. It's just too loud relative to the content volume. What's the point? There's absolutely no reason for this. In closing, TURN IT DOWN OR TURN IT OFF, or I am. out of here.

Tonight, January 13, very excited to watch Newsmax regarding impeachment. Rob Schmitt had 2 attorneys arguing the case against Trump. Of course, the discussion was cut short because of a commercial break. Why I the discussion wasn't continued after the commercial was frustrating. Why bother, it's more about substance and it leaves you frustrated with no closure. They give you a small taste and hook you in, then leave you hanging. Newsmax is now as bad as all the other news channel, too long and too many commercials! A waste of time and they need to organize the guest time and commercial time to give the viewers what we want. When the commercials are given more air time than the guests, that's not right.

I love newsmax all the way with the usa and this coming from a former force recon marine who also not knowing that as a child in the 50s n 60s was in fact indocurated n groomed to be a democrat. Gee i finally woke up in 2016 n believe me wen i say that was the worst 64 year nightmare i ever had. Now newsmax is the only network i watch. Turned off cable tv n all the lieing woke a-holes that run the networks. I love eric bowling rob smiidt gregg kelly and all the ladies as well but please tell me one thing why is your network always having audio n video clintching going on 24/7. Please fix the network issues.

My name is Tom, I watch every day I hear the same thing every day, I am glad that you all get it. I had a boss that told not to come to him with a problem unless I had a solution, you all have not brought a solution or or you would be telling us what you were able to do instead of $#*!ing about the same thing day after day

I have become a viewer of newsmax because of the mostly conservative programming, however, as i noted before, more and more liberal garbage is finding its way into the network. An example is the program trump dynasty, which is a left hit piece. I would hope the network begins doing a better job screening this false crap and understands who there viewers are.

Newsmax needs to jump into the 21st Century with thier tech. Everything they have, whether it be a streaming channel on a smart tv or app completely sucks. Not everyone has cable and streaming is how many folks get their news.

If Newsmax is reading this, please get your sh*t together.

Howie Carr, Joe Pags are fun to listen to. My problem lately has been with Newsmax Now. If you're going to get the views from the left, could you pick more people who have a mind? Robin Biro and Alan Dershowitz are really the only level-headed ones of the bunch. The rest rant about things that aren't relevant to the topic being discussed. They talk over everyone in a uncontrolled frenzy of false accusations. I can get that on CNN or MSNBC. Time to clean some house Newsmax.

Eric Bolling announced twice - hosting on Gregg Kelly show and tonight Saturday,
July 3 at 6:00 pm show said that only Newsnax channel is showing the Trump Rally at 8:00 pm. This is a lie I doubt Eric did not know that OANN will also televise the Trump rally. And, they have in the past when Newsnax did not always feature Trump's live performance.
In any case, Eric is a new addition and is not starting off as credible host. I watch both Newsnax and OANN since I left Fox cable a year ago.
I like both channels. Please be honest so I can feel comfortable, as well as my family and friends, to continue watching Newsnax these next 2-3 critical years. Thanks.

Liquid Lunch should be removed from NewsMax! The kids should not have to look at anyone drinking booze on TV or anyplace. What kind of example do you want to set for everyone, and the kids? You can do better than this. Maybe you don't know a lot of us believe in GOD. The demons are on the the LEFT and far LEFT. DEMONRATS is what the left is. They use the same things the devil uses, deceive, deny, destroy, and divide.

Newsmax needs to catch up on the production end. They are very amaturish! I want to see field reporters and live coverage of Whitehouse briefings. They also need a live morning news show. I want to wake up, while getting for work, get the news... not a documentary!

Initially, NewsMax came on strong with decent reporting and intriguing articles, with opinions that seemed to support conservative views. However, they've made decisions of late that feel like a slide toward liberalism and it is quite a letdown. I was expecting a slant leaning toward conservatism but it has been wishy-washy. It is like they will produce conservative articles and promote them until they get any resistance and then it feels like they backpedal. But, I still prefer reading them over Fox which I stayed with for years until they dumped President Trump and jumped on the liberal bandwagon. Another thing that recently lowered my opinion of NewsMax was the changeover of their commenting system. The new format and company are lackluster compared to the previous one and I'm quite certain I'm not enjoying our liking the replacement. I'd like to see the old system brought back. NewsMax has some solid talent on their broadcast. Stinchfield and Kelly are very solid, informative and level-headed journalists that I enjoy listening to, and whose opinions I value. I have noticed that the broadcast of NewsMax is much more polished than it was even last year. It makes me wonder how much they utilized the conflict between President Trump and everyone against him to their advantage, or more precisely, did NewsMax cover the conflict so heavily in order to take advantage and bring in money? Well, of course they did. They are a business. But, it remains to be seen if NewsMax chooses to maintain the support of the conservative base or start sliding into liberalism just as Fox News did. In NewsMax's case though, they can't really afford to screw it up as their base isn't large enough to keep them afloat.

As a veteran I of course lean to the left but because of shanaigans of my own party I have left. I'm now not political. I like Newmax because it give that antithesis of mainstream news. I'm so confused at this point that the only news source I watch with enthusiasm is PBS. I am sure they will disappoint me as well. Now I don't vote, I care but what's the point at this point and just like everyone else the Working Class doesn't exist anymore even though we are the majority. NewsMax is CLEARLY far right just as much as Main stream is far left. So for that I give them a three because I don't blame them. Fighting misinformation from one side to the other side doing the same is exhausting and dumb.
