We really like Fox News at 10 but find certain practices irritating.  Biggest one is highlighting coming items, then making us wait through not just one set of commercials but commercials, then other news items, then more commercials.

Also think could use fewer or no commercials with the news.  Networks drop enough ads on us during regular programming.  The self-sponsoring commercials could be the first to go.  Those are appropriate for promoting the news and its features during the day, but time could better be devoted to more news or more extensive coverage of other items.

Would like to know how many others would like to see ad free news.  It would also be nice to see more uplifting items to balance the usual run of bad news.  There are any number of people and organizations out  there doing really good things we could stand to know about.  Some of the commercial time would be better spent giving us those kind of news bites.
