Yes, We cut the TV off about 3 months ago & couldn't be happier.
In fact, it's been a big relief!
I've found we can watch any news-channel in the world! livestreaming for free. So do so in the morning, there's weather channels, etc.
Netflix for movies at night, etc.
I've found since the change we watch far better quality programming!, are far more productive, & less frustrated with the 'PC' garbage programming coming out of hollywood & the FCC these days.
Best yet, no more: "Fake News"!

Great Idea & Best Regards!
