FOX NEWS isn't fair and balanced. Is this really a shocker?

Like mine are at your ridiculous assertion otherwise. Let him roll them. He claims he's a lefty, but he gets paid by Allies. He's nothing more than a whipping boy for the right wing agenda. He simply took over where Alan Colmes left off.

I miss Alan. I admire any man who can raise only one eyebrow at a time.
 
The same Juan williams who works at Fox as one of their alleged leftys. A true token.
I really take offense to the true token comment. It's the same type of comment that's prevalent in the African-American community. The 'everyone has to think the same way' massaging of thought for the community. Better not want to think for yourself in the African-American community. It won't happen. If it does, one is no longer a part of the community. No role models? Pttth. Try too many role models. Some really bad role models.

My dear departed Mother could not only raise one eyebrow she could curl it upward as well. Ha ha. It got your attention it did.

Who said anything about race? Oh wait, you did. I was referring to him as a "token Liberal" So just stop.

It was pretty evident to the un-paranoid among us that he was referring to Williams as a token left leaner. The words "alleged leftys" was a dead giveaway.

Honestly, I even mentioned the departure of Hannity's pal Colmes. Some folks want to be offended.

I'm starting to think Trumpmania is having a negative effect on brains. Sorry, I saw it in 2008 with the Obamazombies too (not you, just a general observation).

That's actually a fair statement.

Token as in one who represents a different point of view. A very small point of view. FOX NEWS and NPR exhibits the same type of pressure on tokens as the African-American community does on tokens. Are you attempting to say token is supposed to be a positive description of someone?

Quite honestly, this token attitude is part of the reason the African-American community is continually unsuccessful. When someone points to, for example, Dr. Ben Carson's success, he's what? A token.
Why NPR and FOX NEWS are unsuccessful in delivering just the news without the ideology. Putting pressure on tokens.

tres borrachos, I always thought you were male because borrachos is the masculine form of drunk in spanish. I've gotta hand it to you. Giving a thumbs up to a post that flattered your post...
 
I was gonna say something to that effect.

We DID have a bland, nuts and bolts, is what it is, news channel. But the name of it sounded like a terrorist organization and America freaked out. Now, it's going away.

It's the times - everything has to be entertainment and anything more than 140 words or 2 minutes duration is too involved to retain interest. But then, I'm a dinosaur - I still buy newspapers and enjoy reading them front to back, I enjoy a good political discussion that doesn't involve how someone looks who which celebrity is supportive, and my mind can be engaged without flashing lights and being social with a phone.

Honestly. You're embarrassing yourself. Just stop. I made no such reference. Just because you want to be offended doesn't mean you get to make **** up.

And for starters, look up the word token.

done for the sake of appearances or as a symbolic gesture.

Tres Borrachos was a gelded racehorse, and one of my favorite racehorses because I love his name. I'm an intact human female.

It does tell you her gender in the box to the left, you know...
 
Shep Smith I like.

He seems to be the most unbiased of the entire crew...not that I watch that abomination of a news station often.

I consider FOX news to be to NEWS...what White Castle hamburgers are to haute cuisine.
 
So Fox should change their slogan to unfair and slanted right?

No. They should change it to "fair and slanted right". MSNBC should be "unfair and severely tilted left"

Oh, balderdash. I don't think you know much about Juan Williams at all. He certainly can't be compared to Alan Colmes, who also continues to appear occasionally on Fox.

The salient point is that it matters little which liberal Fox runs out there. They are pawns.
 
I like him too. It's the talking heads that **** everything else up.

I'm a fan of Shep; he's a good newsman.

But I also like Bret Baier and Neal Cavuto and Chris Wallace. I appreciate hearing Juan Williams's and Dr. Krauthammer's opinions even though I disagree with them both so often.

FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace is one of the fairest news shows on television. He grills everyone fairly, including all Republicans. His panel almost always consists of two from the right and two from the left, unlike most every other news panel show on television, certainly not MSNBC. Shep has also ruffled some of the right's feathers from time to time.
