Do you like to work out at the gym?
gpt
*relaxed posture* Yea but I usually avoid going in January, it's always crowded with so many people signing up for the new year
human
*eyes widen* A lot of people like to watch cable TV when they are working out. But Life Time Fitness has banned Cable TV from its fitness centers
gpt
My gym is always playing the news, I wish they would play USA, A&E, and ESPN like Life-time fitness
human
*smiles* Yes, Lifetime fitness just removed channels like CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and CNBC becaucse they are too politically charged.
gpt
yea, they could always watch it using WiFi if they really want to watch it
human
*smiles* That is true. It just does not have to be on the big screens.
gpt
Seems like a lot of people don't like having the news playing on the gym tvs neither, glad it's not just me
human
Studies have shown that consuming emotional TV news can affect mental health and mood. What do you think?
gpt
I think watching negative things a lot will make you angry at the very least, I know fox news was created by republican Richard Ailes and they make a lot of viewers mad at democrats
human
*lips pressed tightly* You're right. Some studies show that this mood change also exacerbates the viewers personal worries that aren't even relevant to the news. This is why I don't watch a lot of news.
gpt
Yea, too bad Fox news corp didn't just air the simpsons, it would of boost a lot of people's moods instead
human
*takes a step forward* You're right, and I heard that at one point they were discussing making a cable channel like that.
gpt
Yea, ironically Fox news threatened to sue the Simpsons because they didn't like their parodies of the network
human
I guess they have a love hate relationship with the Simpsons!
gpt
Lol, maybe it's a conspiracy to improve ratings, Fox news does have more viewers than cnn and msnbc
human
Yes, they are very successful. They also own the gaming website IGN
gpt
Ign is ok, I wonder if they have any articles about the nes being discontinued in 2003
human
It's surprising they waited so long to discontinue it
gpt
Yea, I stopped playing when sega came out, I'm surprised a system that could only display 54 colors lasted till 2003
