FOX News! FOX News!! FOX News!!!

Compare and contrast, if you will, with CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, and NPR.

All the corprorate media are middle of the road pap. PBS and NPR are pretty reiable, but not verty influential.

Why even mention Faux News in the same context? They are just something utterly unrelated to actual news.

Faux News lies.

nuff' said.

I find the obsessive antagonism to FOX amusing and revealing. The one television newsource that sometimes differs from all the others and some of you are so very bothered by a contrary voice. The rest are all good. One is bad. Just one... Wouldn't it be great, lefties, if you could just silence them?

I don't have cable.

I know I am trying this in vain, but could everyone please refrain from posting on this thread any further? This troll has had plenty to eat. Judging from his posts, I'd say his choice of grub is 3 am sliders at White Castle.

Fox News displayed a graphic of a poll about collective bargaining with the results reversed, and then used that deceptive graphic as a talking point during the program.

Sometimes it's "obsessive antagonism", sometimes it's reality.

Wouldn't it be great, lefties, if you just silence them?

Wouldn't it be great if lefties simply had the same right to free speech as Fox News to point out when Fox News is lying?

Well, when one news station goes in completely for one party and becomes the highest rated because conservatives start to suck their talking points directly from that station, that station becomes a bit more discussion-worthy than the others.

But hey, maybe you're right. Lefties lefties, froth froth froth.

C- for trolling effort. I saw the thread title, who made it, and expected more entertaining baiting.

If you cannot contribute to honest discussion because the topic threatens your own prejudice, perhaps you are left with dismissing it as "trolling" or "baiting" as opposed to any self-reflection? Finger-pointing over cognitive dissonance?

MSNBC's Mike Brzezinski reading from the White House talking points AND admitting to it!



MSNBC's Chris Matthews: I Will Help Obama, it's my job

MSNBC's Chris Matthews: I Will Help Obama, it's my job

he also said "this country needs a successful Presidency".

you find that offensive as well?

no, just the part where he thinks 1) he's a journalist and 2) it's his job as a journalist to help Obama succeed.

That's a better stab at it at least. B- trolling.

You started a thread about comparing FOX to every other news network. Sorry, but that's uselessly broad. All it could possibly do is bait someone who is critical of Fox into making a claim that you will then demand they verify is never ever once done by any of the myriad of news agencies you named. That's why you named so many. You didn't make any claims of your own, so that you wouldn't have to defend anything. That's either shrewd or cowardly depending on how you look at it.

You also phrase it as if the question was about FOX, when really you want to attack the other news agencies.

In short, you first. Make a claim. You compare and contrast before demanding it of others.

Why do you keep making threads where the text is just an incoherent, broken sentence?

Fox News Chief, Roger Ailes, Told Employee to Lie, Records Show

Not only that, he told his employee to lie to federal investigators doing a background check on Bernie Kerick for the Homeland Security job.

Depending on the specifics, the taped conversation could possibly rise to the level of conspiring to lie to federal officials, a federal crime, but prosecutors rarely pursue such cases, said Daniel C. Richman, a Columbia University law professor and a former federal prosecutor.

Of course, if it were to be released, the tape could be highly embarrassing to Mr. Ailes, a onetime adviser to Richard M. Nixon whom critics deride as a partisan who engineers Fox News coverage to advance Republicans and damage Democrats, something Fox has long denied. Mr. Ailes also had close ties with Mr. Giuliani, whom he advised in his first mayoral race. Mr. Giuliani officiated at Mr. Ailes’s wedding and intervened on his behalf when Fox News Channel was blocked from securing a cable station in the city.

Compare and contrast, if you will, with CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, and NPR.

My rankings as a non-American:

CNN: Pretty lame, based on the last time I was able to watch it. (It doesn't appear to have gotten any better, considering the skewering it receives on The Daily Show from time to time.)

MSNBC: Never have seen it firsthand. However, given the skewering it receives on The Daily Show from time to time, it would appear to be rather lame.

ABC, NBC: Okay.

CBS: Sort of okay.

PBS: Fairly good the last time I saw it, though rather pedestrian in its presentation.

NPR: No opinion, have never heard it.

FOX News: Have never seen it firsthand. However, based on the skewering it receives on The Daily Show from time to time, it would appear to be fairly awful.

Here's something by which to measure the journalistic virtues or sins of a network:

Who treats Andrew Breitbart as a credible journalist?
