I laughed so hard I scared the dog.

HOW? how do people believe this? I mean, seriously did they just break the knob off on the old black-and-white on the Fox channel?

My dad gave me an essentially band-new television that he had for a couple weeks. It already has the Fox News logo burned into it, complete with the scrolling news banner and a distinct line down the middle (the line that splits two talking heads).

I thought televisions these days don't burn like that?

OLED will always burn but it needs thousands of hours of continuous static usage and a screen refresher here or there will prevent burn in

It's burned hard into the screen, and it's a smartTV-- not sure what kind.

You can try playing a screen refresh video on youtube (I can't recommend any specific ones sorry). For model number there's likely a sticker on the back?
