It is fascinating to watch the whiney diatribe Liberals blather the internet with about how biased Fox is.
Have any Liberals here watched Chris Mathews Hardball on MSNBC?
Have any Liberals watched Keith Olbermann and Countdown?
If you can argue that these shows are LESS biased than Hannity and Colmes or The O'Reilly Factor, let’s have that debate.
I watch Chris and Kieth and quite honestly, I find it hard that anyone could make an argument there is no Liberal bias on those shows.
I also watch the news on CNN and Fox, and quite frankly the ONLY difference in their coverage is CNNs news reporters show a surprising lack of curiosity when it comes to interviews and getting fed a story line as opposed to Fox News reporters.
Is Fox News Fair and Balanced? It depends on our own biases. I would suggest that it is more balanced in that almost ALL their shows try hard to include BOTH sides of every issue on their talk shows and that Fox also balances out the profound bias found on the mainstream news channels like MSNBC, NBC, ABC and CBS. The notion that there is balance in the media is laughable at best. So yes, they should be able to claim that they are “Fair and Balanced” just based on this.
Fox should be seen as a blessing by Americans that provides an alternate forum for presenting the news and ideas in an intellectual effort to get at the truth and the facts which allow us to make more informed and BETTER decisions.
The incessant attacks from Liberals just proves the case that they would prefer to control the news Americans get and illustrates that opposite of what they profess about being more open minded, they exhibit a narrow closed minded myopic view that seeks to destroy any information or ideas that may conflict with their already pre-conceived notions about the environment and the world.
What is sad is that their desperate grip on the American education system has given us a generation of derelicts who probably couldn't find the country of France on a world map without help.
Liberals think there is balance because in their feeble minds, they think they actually are the middle and majority opinion. Yet when one polls Americans and their ideas, Liberalism gets its butt kicked.
Liberal policies are FAR from the norm that most Americans desire. Yes the Liberal media has worked overtime to convince Americans that BIG Government programs for the disadvantaged are good, that the burden to pay for such largess will be born by those who can easily afford the largess and that Liberals with high self opinions about their own intellect and closed minded regarding alternate ideas are better equipped to tell them how they should live their lives.
How profound that we have a major political party in this country which operates on a platform that higher taxes and BIGGER Government programs are somehow good for society. Yet the historic evidence constantly suggest otherwise.
I will remind you all of the formerly Liberal ideas that made this country great in the first place. And it was nothing close to a Socialist Government that controls how we live and think and creates a dependent class of voters that will keep those high opinion Liberal intellects in power for the next century.
