Default Re: wow foxnews is biased, look at headlines right now

"Fair and Balanced" is an especially good lie becuase is propagates the myth that every single other traditional news source is part of the Liberal Media. Think about it, cons are CONVINCED every network, every newpaper, every cable station is liberal. You would think one station or paper would, you know, try to do objective jouralism, but no! Liberal Media!!

No, but alot of the Media Elite is. It's not hard to see that. I'm not a conservative, and I will admit if Fox, in general, leans to any one side it is the right. I say this because of shows Beltway Boys, Fox N Friends, etc. I agree Hannity is a bully, an idealogue, and selects what facts he wants. But so does Colms, he isn't a bully, but he is just as bad as an idealogue. Still Fox lets everyone on that wants to get on. The liberal arguements that are made on Fox are no worse than the ones on CNN, ABC, and CBS. I know because my room-mate and I watch all of them just to keep ourselves in check. We have the News running 24/7 in our house. My favorite news station is Fox News because of Shep Smith, and (gasp) O'reilly. Although sometimes even I dislike O'reilly, and other times I like him, I don't think you can really say he has a motive for the left or the right.

Again, I love the Hitler comparison. I see what your saying, but I'm not convinced. Don't misunderstand me, H&C and O'reilly need improvement but they aren't super clever con artists conning the entire nation.

You go ahead and believe what you want to believe and I will continue reading the Economist, rcp, pnac, Lee Harris, Shep Smith, O'reilly, Thomas Friedman (from NYT's), William Kristol (weekly standard), CSPAN, and reuters. As well as numerous online forums. And you go ahead and keep on thinking FNC is Nazi like war propaganda.

Is that ok? Or is that not fair and balanced enough?
