WFXT-TV FOX 25 Boston

I never thought I’d review a TV station. But my local station is by far my favorite.
Unless the news isn’t on because of a movie or sporting event, I ALWAYS watch Fox 25. It’s by far my favorite (and in my opinion, the best) station for efficient news, that is reliable. Always the fastest, most detailed news.
I don’t know why anyone would have anything bad to say about this great station! Plus, a lot of the time (depending on what time of day it is), you are able to see people while driving on Providence Highway in Dedham, or at their Beacon Hill Studio in busy Boston. Overall, just a great station that EVERYONE should watch!

My wife and I looked forward to the 10:00 news each evening. One of us would say, «it’s time to watch Maria.» Since Maria’s departure we now get an extra hour of sleep! It was a poor decision to force her out. We now get our news elsewhere, usually on Drudge.

I have to agree with the other posts .I was a loyal fan of the morning show. I work from home and would just keep the tv on Fox. First VB went, I was devasted. I kept watching and the changes c kept coming. Shannon had left the morning show and it was Sorbini, what happened to her anyway? Sarah is just to sweet to soft spoken but I love me some Gene in the morning so I kept watching. Then came that trafic girl Julie and then Daniel and a whole bunch of new reporters it was madness! I couldn’t keep up, I tuned in for Gene and ignored the others. Sure I grown to like Shiri, still miss Cindy, and I like Kevin I mean who doesn’t? I stayed until zip trip 3 they brought in the most boring and uninteresting people, sorry Rich from Kiss 108 and lady I have no idea what your name is. Sorry Fox time to stick a fork in you … You’re DONE! Time to try another station or maybe get my news online.

I am one who gets up in the morning and turns on the news with my coffee. I really enjoyed Fox 25 because there was personality in news, weather, traffic and commentary. Then came Cox Media. They made reporters become just news readers with the same boring stories repeated over and over. No fun, no smiles, no nothing. Why not just tape a half hour and play it over and over with a graphic updating the traffic. I can’t understand why any advertiser would toss money at a show which is obviously lost viewers. Even their popular Zip Trip programming has been watered down to uninteresting. Key personalities have been fired or left on their own. This station has a limited future until Cox grabs some cash and sells it to another and hopefully friendly news station. This was a perfect example of killing the goose who laid the golden egg.

The debate? No we get the insipid tv show bones. Way to go fair and balanced. Yes a horrid series over a debate your channel supported.

This is a pretty good news station. I like to watch Maria Stephanos at night. She is so hot!

I can’t stand watching the morning news on fox anymore. It used to be so different than other news stations, now it’s just BORING. This faithful watcher of Fox News has now tuned out!!!

I’m still having a hard time getting over the loss of VB and all the commentary he brought to local and national news. In addition to VB I miss the regular weekly line-​up of guests (i.e. The Monday Morning Quarterbacks, The Heavy Hitters, etc). The «breaking, hard-​hitting news» that was supposed to replace him is really just the same news being looped over and over again. One can find this on any local news station. Fox 25 Boston brought personality and flavor to local news. Bad move Cox, bad move.

BORING!!! Morning news show way too long to just keep repeating the same news over and over. Used to be interesting and fun to watch, now it’s almost painful! Sarah makes too many mistakes to be a co-​host, and don’t get me started on Julie! Gene is awesome but looks unhappy now. Used to love my Fox Boston. I moved to ABC with Cindy.

they’re not as prejudice as they use to be years ago… The whole (local) fox channel in general has gotten a little better. I’m liberal so this station use to make me cringe but now they are improving so good job. Keep evolving.

Firstly, only four stars because they no longer show Seinfeld reruns.
I tune in daily for the Morning News. Definitely has some personality in spite of the people they have let go of the past few years, ie:. Doug and Kim.
Lastly, Let’s not forget they still have the NFL, The Simpsons and Family Guy.

I find Maria Stephanos obnoxious and full of herself.

I love Fox 25 News. It is the best. I think they report a lot of things the other channels don’t. I like that it comes on at 10 because sometimes by 11 I am half asleep. The only thing I hate about this news is Erin Hawksworth aka Erin Whoresworth, but even she could not ruin how I feel about this news

So, Fox vans have been filming outside my apartment for the last four days. Some Harvard professor, who will remain unnamed, got in a little dispute with a Cambridge cop, and it has made international news. It has also lured in these huge camera/​filming vans, which park day and night in resident spaces, running noisy generators and being rude to civilians. Last night, when I went to ask the cameraman/​van driver to please turn off his generator (around 10 PM), he was lying back in his car seat and watching porn. No lie. Classy!!! I just wish I had had my camera. This whole situation has just reinforced how tacky and pathetic Fox News really is.

You’re baby is going to die!
Is what would happen if you let it drink from the poisonous sippy cups that are on the market today and then drop it out a 20^th floor window. Damn those chemicals in plastic! They should be banned!
I love it when they do that.
Kevin Lemanowitz and the 10:30 weather rocks! I can’t go to sleep until I see it.
Maria Stephanos and those F me boots gets a star.
The channel has some good shows in 24, NFL Football, Simpsons, and Family Guy. Some terrible ones in American Idol. Remember when they just started as a channel and had like two shows, Tracey Ullman and Maried with Children? Now they’re one of the big boys. Congrats.

My butt hurts.
God forbid you actually put some frickin’ salt down in the area in front of your Beacon Hill studio. My butt is still in a status of achiness over 12 hours after I took a decent spill right in front of the studio (luckily, nothing else hurts :)). Thanks a lot.
That being said, I can’t completely hate on the channel. They do a decent job with the morning commute/​weather thing, so that’s always important. And Fox does have Family Guy and The Simpsons. But they also have American Idol, the one with the kids, and that show with the guy yells a lot into his cell phone and then breaks people’s fingers.
But please, if you’re on a slope (which the studio is on, as it’s at the top of the hill near the State House), salt the area on icy days.

I love their morning show. Mainly because the other Boston morning news shows are completely devoid of personality.
So, why the three stars, why not five? VB. UGG.
Yes, I get that Fox has to try and veil their conservatism but this guy is ridiculous. Plus, do I have to watch him stuff his fat face? How often do they need to show this dude eating? Gross. So yeah, he sucks.
As far as news goes you’re not likely to find much but fluff and TERROR in the AM so don’t watch to catch up on goings on in the world. But for a show that will wake you up and the most accurate weather I’ve found so far (thanks Cindy!) this is the place to be.

I’ll keep this review short and sweet.
WFXT Fox 25 get’s five stars because of Maria Stephanos.

Is it really necessary to have a four hour morning show? I mean, you repeat the same stories over and over. I like Cindy Fitzgibbon for the weather — she always seems to get the forecast almost perfect. I can’t really take Kim, she never seems like she wants to be at work. Anquenette is leaving in December. She will be missed. Gene and VB are okay too. The nightly news is okay.

I performed on the FOX 25 morning show with my mother. The studio was really amazing to look at and watch in action. It was a beautiful space, much better than it appears on TV. Also, the news anchors are all MUCH more attractive in person! The camera really does add 10 pounds!
The green room had comfortable chairs and internet access. Everyone was very kind and professional. The whole morning show crew gave a very sweet round of cheers and applause after my mom and I performed.
It looks like a cool, serene place to work, too.
