Primetime MSM cable gets new nationwide-coverage all-hard-news-no-opinion competition from Nexstar (owner of WGN-TV, Chicago). "News Nation" reinvents "Bozo's Circus" studio to tweak the clown noses of CNN, MSDNC, and Fox. Interestingly, it'll have no regular sports reports! Starts Tuesday night 1 Sept 2020 running from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET.
There's a Find Your Channel app on the press release website plus it remains to be seen which cable or Hulu or Roku channels carry it.
