I love Newsmax I normally watch all day long, but my two favorites are gone Sean Spicer and Grant Stinchfield pretty disappointed. The two of them along with Greg Kelly, Chris Salcedo and Rob Schmitt are the only ones I watch and that’s not too often. not sure why companies get rid of their best people, but it really disappoints me

I love Newsmax
I love Newsmax. I love FOX too, but FOX doesn't let you hear the WH Press Conference. Newsmax does. Newsmax shows the rallies. I'm so glad Newsmax is back on Direct TV.

They don't give the news on hard…
They don't give the news on hard hitting stories until the very end of the program. It's like they are holding people hostage with the news. Instead of making sure they have the important news before they go to work.

Toxic
The workplace at Newsmax is lacking company culture and a sense of shared values. Employees do not feel valued or respected. While there may be a few competent producers, many others have a sense of entitlement and a lack of commitment to their work. The management is ineffective and lacks knowledge and understanding of the industry, particularly an individual named Walter Raps who is particularly lacking in knowledge and skills.
Newsmax is known for showing favoritism and prioritizing financial gain over fair treatment of employees. There is a significant pay discrepancy between employees in New York and Florida who perform the same tasks, with those in New York earning 30-40% more. This pay gap is present across all positions and not just limited to specific roles. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission should investigate the company's policies and interview employees to uncover any issues. Upon giving my two weeks notice, I did not receive an exit interview from the Human Resources department, which is a standard practice to gather feedback and improve the company's culture and work environment, and to show appreciation for the employee's service. The lack of this process shows a lack of professionalism and concern for employee retention.
In the workplace at Newsmax, employees are discouraged from reporting issues or complaints to human resources or management due to fear of retaliation. This includes issues with co-workers that create a hostile work environment, and management's attitude towards addressing these issues is dismissive and unsupportive. The Director of Creative Services, Matt Walsh, has been quoted as saying that respect is not part of the job description, which demonstrates a lack of empathy and understanding of the importance of treating others with kindness and respect. This attitude is detrimental to employee engagement, well-being, and productivity, and can create a toxic work environment. I believe that if this behavior continues, it could lead to legal action being taken against the company.
At Newsmax, there is limited opportunities for advancement and promotions are often based on personal relationships or favoritism rather than merit. The company also lacks work-life balance and employees are overworked. Management at Newsmax also discriminates when it comes to allowing employees to work from home, which is ironic as they themselves take advantage of this privilege. The employee suggests that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) investigate the company's treatment of employees.
I am very critical of the work culture at Newsmax because there is limited room for growth and promotions are based on favoritism, and lack of work-life balance and overworking employees. Management is also accused of discrimination in terms of allowing employees to work from home. I don’t recommend working at Newsmax if you are looking for a reputable company with opportunities for growth. I suggest that if someone or you is considering working at Newsmax, you should document everything, communicate via email, and have a lawyer on standby in case of any potential legal issues. I also recommend researching the company before considering employment at Newsmax.
It is important for any organization to create a positive and respectful work environment for all employees. This includes addressing any toxic culture and behavior, promoting fair treatment and equal opportunities, and fostering open communication and collaboration. Managers and leaders play a crucial role in setting the tone for the workplace and should be held accountable for creating a positive culture. It's important for the company to actively listen to the employees and take necessary steps to address any issues that may arise. This can lead to a more engaged and productive workforce, and ultimately benefit the company's success

Newsmax is the only truthful news on
Newsmax is the only truthful news on. They report the news as its happening. All other news stations never show anything positive about Republicans. Never show Trump's rallies. They are against Republicans and favor Democrats. That's why Newsmax is such a refreshing station. If Direct TV drops Newsmax, I hope American people drop them and AT&T. Democrats don't want a station that reveals the truth. Corruption everywhere

Newsmax does equate to it's competition
While I believe allot of Foxnews viewers left like I did to depend on NewsMax for news, every evening past 10pm NewsMax has reruns. Last night into the early morning, 12pam to 130am, a new speaker if the house was elected and Newsmax did not cover it, it was reruns of Bowling. If Newsmax wants to be the new conservative news channel they need to be dependable and have live coverage of important things that are occurring in our country like Fox, CNN. I had to switch my channel to Fox then Cannot get up to date on time breaking news.

Gives the "other" side
Very much enjoy the other side of traditional news broadcast. This allows me both sides of the story and provides the ability for me to think through the issues and come to a well informed decision.
5 stars for Greg Kelly, my favorite opinion show
PS...Bring back Jim Jordon to interviews.

Disappointed in Newsmax reporting
I've been an avid reader of Newsmax website and I must say regarding the various high-profile races that today I feel that I've been gaslit by my own side.
While I'm used to this from MSM I'm disappointed Newsmax fell for and reported what they were either fed by our side or self reported unrealistic outcomes of several races.
This kind of reporting from a conservative publication is incredibly disappointing. Thanks for treating your readers like children.
