Since when do you put in quarters to turn on or off the TV in an airport. I don't travel much anymore but the TV is sort of ... just on.... in one section of the airport like at the bar or at the waiting area. Passengers don't have the option to turn on or off the TV.

Plus how can air travel increase nearly 500% because of a "TV channel". Nope... I'm calling bullshit on the entire idea.

The phrase to warm the cockles of one’s heart means to give one a comforting feeling of contentment. The noun cockle now denotes specifically an edible burrowing bivalve mollusc with a strong ribbed shell common on sandy coasts (Genus Cardium, family Cardiidae). But it was formerly applied more vaguely to other bivalves and their shells.

The small white shells along the beach here, are called cockles in SA and kickaVic call them pippees. they are bigger than you get here, and both eaten and used for bait.

Here in WA we have mussels, and it just sounds wrong to say 'warm the mussels of my heart'.

Yeh nah, actually, fuck knows Op, where that sayin came from, neither makes sense, unless spelt 'muscles'.

The airports are paid by the Commie News Network to run their drivel 24/7. It makes the network rating look good, even though nobody actually watches. I suspect the airports are also getting the money from people that don't want to be force fed communist propaganda.

My brother manages a popular sub shop, where the owner insists he has CNN on for the customers...when the owner isn't there, it goes to FOX or ESPN.

He said he would quit his job if he had to endure CNN crap everyday.

Relax. The story is from the Babylon Bee. It's a satire site. It is a funny story because it's ironic. You know, fake news about CNN..

And, FYI, there used to actually be coin operated televisions in airports.

I was just in Atlanta and fort lauderdale airports...I was totally and pleasantly surprised that CNN was not to be found on any tv screen that I was around.

It was all sports.

Wasn't there something a while back where CNN lost their contract for airports and places like that?

In any case, maybe something has happened behind the scenes that we don't really know about.

Again, no sign of CNN at those 2 locations about a week ago.
