No, but it would be nice if they'd change the name to something more accurate.

Maybe "The GOP Channel".

or "Fox Editorials and Opinion Pieces".

The fact that you can't even provide me with a description of a situation when this occurred tells me you don't have any evidence to back up your assertion.

Did he say you "started a bunch of threads"? I'm betting if I cared to do the research, which I don't, that we could find your vomit all over more than just one or two FOX News bashing threads.
LOL Yeah, keep making assertions where you can't back them up. *yawn*

Why; because you say so?

I find such arguments specious, as are most arguments about how "biased" Fox News is. Most of those arguments come from people who never spend any time watching it but get their views fed to them by Left Wing blogs devoted to disinformation.

Every attempt to suggest that Fox has a profound bias can be shown to be specious. Care to try?

Then you better stop supporting Liberal politicians eh?

Here's a video of how successful the Liberal controlled American education system has been creating an informed citizenry capable of making decisions of political import in our elections for political office:

Oh don't you worry your little head, we do have a country of people educated enough to see the "Fox News is" crowd for exactly what "it is".

See Nifty's quote below.

Look, I don't have the time to post on here (or even get on the computer) nearly as much as I used to. My fiancee has been out of work for the past month and I'm working 2 jobs to make ends meet. If my unwillingness to put forth a little more effort because I'm either working or too tired to do a little research is confused with "unable to back up my assertions", then I'm sorry.

The facts are indisputable - every cable network has a slant. When one only attacks a single network and gives the others a pass, it's called being dishonest. They all pull the same crap and use the same tactics, but only one of them is demonized the way FOX News is. I'm not sure what the "FOX News crowd" is exactly, but I would bet they are eerily similar to the "FOX News bashing crowd" in that they live under rocks. I'm sorry for you if you are either unwilling to admit, or too stupid to realize, that MSNBC is just as "evil" as FOX News. No single news outlet should ever be trusted completely. I tend to watch FOX News more than the others simply because it's on at work more often, but I do watch CNN, MSNBC and FOX News and I see the same twists and turns in the stories, depending on the slant of course. If you don't see that, then your eyes aren't open because your partisan hatred fogs up reality for you.

I'm hoping to get an intelligent response from you, but I'm sure you will let me down as always. Keep trying though, I'm pulling for ya!
