    Nah. BUNCH of white folk who can’t stop talking about how great the service is at chik fil a and how they teach people to respect customers will lap this up. Same with the people who insist that chikfila makes the best chicken on the planet because even a single spec of spice would give them an upset tum-tum and the pickle marinade means they can overcook the white meat without turning it into powder.

    People are probably too young to remember but there was very much a time when fox news was “center right” compared to CNN’s “center left” and was mostly billed around being “fair and balanced”. Shit like this is an attempt to get conservative-lite programming out there in preparation for the inevitable push back of mask off bigotry after November.

    In my head I imagine it all religious based streaming, like those weird religious channels you can pick up on your tv over the air.

    It’ll be cooking shows on how to make everything taste like it was soaked in pickle juice for thirty years , and then served up with a side of smug Christian pretension.

    They’re not paying much per half hour, only $400k, maybe this makes sense lol? They’d only need to make $590k per half hour, which for, say, 50 hours total of original content (it is a chicken restaurant after all) with a $5/mo subscription over five years equates to only 23k subscribers averaged over those five years for an over 8% ROI, which given how many people sign up for these $/mo streaming services doesn’t seem insane.
