willk49 Posted July 13, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thinking of taking the Sun to Alaska in September. Just wondering if the pools are heated and if they have Fox news on tv. They did on the Jade in eastern med. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldsc Posted July 13, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2008 "Fox News". That is a contradiction in terms. DON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywillow Posted July 13, 2008 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2008 "Fox News". That is a contradiction in terms. DON Fox distorts. You listen.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailnd Posted July 13, 2008 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2008 "Fox News". That is a contradiction in terms. DON If not Fox then please confess where you obtain your 'accurate news knowledge'.....perhaps that is the true contradiction of terms. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willk49 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #5 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Fox distorts. You listen.:rolleyes: Didn't mean for this to turn into a political debate but since you started...after many cruises of being forced to obtain my news from the anti-American CNN International or BBC it was nice to finally watch a news station (while on a cruise) that "was on our side".

Coasty Posted July 13, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2008 "Fox News". That is a contradiction in terms. DON I can't believe donaldsc has to put his cheap 2 cents in and try to turn a good question into a political debate. Shame on you Don. You should get back to watching MSNBC with the rest of the Kool-Aid drinkers. I bet they don’t have that channel on any of the cruise ships. So getting back to the original question, is FOX NEWS available, I sure hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jla418 Posted July 13, 2008 #7 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Yes, the pools are heated. Who cares about the news. I cruise to escape! lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willk49 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #8 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Yes, the pools are heated. Who cares about the news. I cruise to escape! lol... That's the news I wanted to hear. A few years ago we did Alaska on the Sun Princess and got just as much pool time in as a warm water cruise because the pools were heated.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilmille Posted July 13, 2008 #9 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Fox News was on the Dawn as well as CNN. We were spared MSNBC which was good since no one really watches it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishbait17 Posted July 14, 2008 #10 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Just got off the Sun yesterday. Our cruise was cold and rainy, but lovely. CNN and FOX News both available. Pool heated to 82 chilly degrees, and the hot tubs were only heated to 98! I am not sure if I ever actually set foot on the pool deck, so can't tell you if people were enjoying it!

MamaSugarBear Posted July 14, 2008 #11 Share Posted July 14, 2008 We just got off the Sun yesterday also and even though it was cool and rainy pretty much the entire cruise, the hot tubs and pools were well used! And besides CNN there was also Channel 32 from Vancouver showing "new" movies continuously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLAalum Posted July 14, 2008 #12 Share Posted July 14, 2008 last summer in Villars, Switzerland, the only English channel we got was Al Jazeera. Give me the Comedy Channel for my news anyday! Love that Colbert Report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitheone Posted July 14, 2008 #13 Share Posted July 14, 2008 On the contrary, many of us would be *delighted* to see MSNBC on NCL's available channels! Fox News was on the Dawn as well as CNN. We were spared MSNBC which was good since no one really watches it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
