Leave it to a show on Comedy Central to expose FOX News for what it is - A propaganda channel. This piece is not only hilarious, but it is also true. Their evidence? Clips from FOX News itself. Here is part I Here is part II
After watching this, one has to wonder about the journalistic integrity of, not only FOX News, but also that of the other corporate media whores, and their own embedded presstitutes. When bowling scores become more important than the Fourth Amendment, something is very wrong. What is wrong, you ask? We are being treated like mushrooms by these corporate elites - Kept in the dark and fed bull****. That is what is wrong.

I like that Oliver show segment. It's exactly what it is like watching Hannity and O'Reilly.

Both sets of videos, Dana's and Mikail's, lament about the Clinton News Network and More Snotty Nonsense By Creeps trailing Fox news in viewership within 1 minute of their beginnings...
I'm not defending the work done by Fox News, but I'm also not about to lend any credibility to anyone who's whining about CNN and MSNBC - 2 extremely biased news channels, trailing Fox News in viewership. | |

The thing I find the most terrible is the outright lying.
Most of Fox's bias is due to simply having bias. They are usually not lying but merely presenting a 1 sided view.
But look at the woman's eyes and facial reactions as she talks about Obama being a Muslim in Part 2.
Forget the content. And just look at her.
She knows she is lying. She feels silly and guilty as though there is a hot lamp shining on her.
You can see it all over her face, in her neck and eye movement, and in her voice as it reacts with her eyes.
Anyhow...
Just showing Fox only is a better way to show it's bias.
By adding a bunch of Liberal bias from the comedy show itself it did nothing but remove credibility from the entire segment as a whole. | |
