why are you down as an independent? when you sound hard left...you clearly don't watch Fox at all other wise you would see that they have just as many hard left folks points of views as they do right points of views....and if you watched Fox you may also find out more of what is actually going on in the world...not just with Obama or Romney but the world itself. I read and watch all MSM and can say that the left MSM does not show a quarter of what is going on.....I look for it...but it is hidden in the darkness of their webpages and on the TV. Being well rounded and watching all takes is important...not just one side....I was a life long Liberal...and was for Hillary's campaign here in our town...I am socially liberal but fiscally conservative who owns a business that was fantastic to a shell of one....Obama has nothing new to offer and I have also changed to a republican/Independent.....Romney has my vote 100%...

Hard left? **** are you talking about. Supporting gay rights is libertarian / liberal / center. IMO Fox news is the worst of the worst, anybody who thinks they are remotely fair or quality coverage is out of their god damn mind, IMO. Media in general is pretty ugly but Fox takes the cake hands down no questions asked. The only "lefties" you see on Fox are straw men caricatures that are lined up to be knocked down to show just how dominant right wing beliefs are, its all theater, how do you not know this?
 
Exactly. ******

If it upsets you so much why do you watch it? I watch MSNBC a lot and generally get a kick out of it. If it upset me I wouldn't watch.

I support Gay rights 100% and I lean more right then left....and give me the names of the ones you feel on FOX are straw men? and dont forget to mention the ones that have been on Fox like Wasseman shultz...and the people that run Obamas campaign.....like Axelrod ...oh wait your right...they are straw men :mrgreen:
 
Everyone is bias, every station is bias, it is a fact of nature. However there is a difference between being decent and psychopathic monsters, NPR and Fox news respectively.

Yeah cuz I said every single "liberal" that has ever been on Fox news is a straw man. :roll: Their regular liberal contributors, on shows, are all ******s that roll over barely making a whimpering argument, this happens on a daily basis.
 
I did not say I was upset, it is amusing watching it though. That was the first place I heard of creeping sharia (taxi drivers in Denver) and Death panels. It is really amusing. And it is on everywhere I go here in conservobot land.

Wasnt old Juan under contract with NPR and always identified himself as NPR analyst? Then said really stupid stuff that took away any sort of journalist integrity he might have had? Not a problem on Fox, but was on NPR. Silly little details.

You mean the NPR that fired Juan Williams for being on FOX ...that NPR ...NPR is left....try another....

you never said anything in your post about stating that it was just the liberals that are regular contributors.....but nice try....I have no problem with what you watch and how you feel about Obama....and if you watch hard left news... unlike you..... I will not insult you the way you insult others who watch FOX for what you prefer to get your news from....you can get your point across without being so hard lined in your ideology....and stating that anyone that "watches Fox is out of their Goddamned mind" does not keep the debate going. IMO.
 
And are probably well paid for it.

Compared to pygmies in the jungle, I'm tall. That doesn't mean the NBA is knocking down my door.

yes....and here is your answer....and I agree with him...everytime I get on the plane I worry if I see someone that looks Muslim......it makes me wonder...and its not like we have not had this problem since 9/11 with our planes....this was no reason for NPR to fire him....

"I mean, look, Bill, I'm not a bigot. You know the kind of books I've written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous."

Would you understand how that could be a problem? What if said the same thing about a bus and black people?

NPR did the right thing there, and if they got rid of Juan for being too far right they got rid of Vivian for being too far left

This is the organization with the most integrity in my view. Yes, most of the people on the shows vote left, I don't need a study to know that, but the vast majority of stories have little to no spin in either direction, and that is nearly unique.

Seriously listen to rush, listen to sharpton, then listen to NPR. It should become obvious who is and.isn't biased.

LOL. The one who screwed up was the moderator. She won't be there to save Obama on Monday. The lie he told is just floating there like a hanging curve ball and Romney will crush it on Monday. It's a perfect set up. Ninety minutes on foreign policy with Obama's lie in front of the entire country leading off the debate.

She did not screw up and if she did at least it was Romney that got screwed.

And that statement says it all.

Really, you started a thread about the bias of FoxNews (a known bias) as if the same weren't true of MSNBC. Heck they thought Obama "won" the first debate. We've already established FoxNews is biased to the right and MSNBC is biased to the left. Both are heavily biased, it's their business model.
