Is English your second language?
Furthermore it is not that big of an issue compared to many other issues like taxes, immigration, school vouchers, ect. Its mostly just left wing kabuki theater to draw away attention from the massive failures of leftism.

No, just my voice to text on my Iphone crapping out....

It is an issue of Freedom from Association Why should churches and business be forced to do things that violate their faith.

Furthermore gay marriage is just a smoke screen issue that left loves to pull out as to draw attention away from their failures.
 
Yes, what else is new?

Fox news is just like any other station in that it panders to its demographic which is extremely lucrative . If parading around candidates and distorting facts get it ratings it's going to continue doing so.

All Fox News' ratings prove is that there's a market for right-wing lies and GOP shilling. Doesn't surprise me. Conservatives often trend more toward self-affirmation than liberals do. That's a generalization, of course, not a truism, but it's pretty obvious.

How is it obvious?
 
WARNING...if you get all your news from Fox News, then you have virtually NO IDEA what the world is really like - NONE.

All major U.S. news networks suck...but Fox sucks by far the most.

Great for sports - HORRIFIC for news.

So tell us oh learned man of the world, where do you get your news?

That's an interesting argument. Can you show us where Hillary Clinton has tried to get on FOX and been denied? Or even where Hillary has made herself available? Or even where Hillary has been willing to expose herself to actual questions in a non-softball atmosphere at all for the past several years?

Everyone on Fox would be breaking their necks to get an interview with Hillary if she would accept. You can bet your sweet bottom dollar on that.

:shrug: nah. FOX does plenty of stuff that annoys me. It's quick to zoom into The Story Of The Day Can You Believe This Kitten Was Caught In A Tree / This Famous Person Had This Happen To Them stories while real news is happening around the world. That's a general media thing, mind you, but it's still annoying.

I am certain Fox would love to have her and maybe she will eventually go on Fox, but she just recently announced so I don't think she would do it until she was nominated.

I don't know. Hillary is extremely paranoid and controlling when it comes to information control - it'd be interesting to see what kind of restrictions she would try to put on an interview.

Hillary v Kelley would be interesting.
 
they invite plenty of Democrats who refuse to come. They can't drag them in.

Claiming Fox News distorts facts is a subjective and BIASED assertion.

You should probably pick a new pseudonym

Really .. so you claim they don't dstort facts ? Even when they got caught when they claimed that Paris had no go zones . That assertion and blatant distortion of facts had Paris ready to sue fox it for such outrageous claims

I'm not biased because you don't admit that fox distorts facts
I'm not biased because I think that the majority of news outlets have lied and distorted facts , because they have

Several articles of that have stated this happening , you may look for yourself or I will post them if you so choose .

But the media matters graph lists 15 candidates and that is what you used. I know its been near the end of March since Cruz announced, last week Paul announced and Rubio announced over the weekend.I seriously doubt Cruz, Paul, and Rubio been on a total of 244 times since their announcement.

Obama only won 2008 because the media propped him up. Obama had Oprah Winfrey's endorse and appeared other talk shows and the media in general did positive name recognition stories about Obama.

In fact, the legitimate position can be substantiated that the MSM pushed forward more positive coverage and less negative coverage on Obama, and the reverse for the GOP candidate. This clearly demonstrating their bias.
 
No. The GOP is the mouthpiece for Fox News.

I am not complaining that Fox interviews all the Republican candidates because I think the fact that they do will result in noninating the person who have the least chances of winning the election. I believe that happened in 2008 and 2012,

Best bet to date is that Hillary will avoid any and all questions she doesn't like, any and all journalists she doesn't like and / or asks hard questions she doesn't want to answer until the very last possible moment, or until she had a Democratic nomination challenger, of which there are now a few. Images of journalists chasing after the 'Scooby Van' (Hillary) are bound to be repeated in various forms and venues.

I believe O'Reilly's staff have invited Hillary to appear multiple times, but she's not accepted, and that's only a single program that's no doubt invited her to appear. I'm pretty sure that most all of them have.

No, it's not that Fox is the GOP mouthpiece, it's that they do invite Democrats to appear, but so few have the courage to accept and appear.

Democrats are far more willing to accept and appear on programs that restrict their questions to the pretty much pointless and uninformative softball questions they want to answer.

Proof positive would be the Obama / Hillary 'Love In' that Steve Croft conducted on 60 Minutes. It was little more than an administration / DNC propaganda piece. Talk about a what is claimed to be a hard news program being a mouthpiece, this would be the definitive definition of such.

Quite true. I think you can probably use the 60 Minute Steve Croft 'Love In' with Obama as an exemplar.

I doubt that it'll ever happen, or that she would allow it to happen. After all, Kelley asks hard questions.

I was listening last night on my drive to glenn beck play a tape of an interview Hillary did last summer with NPR. Even with NPR she was struggling.

Your criticisms fall under the typical leftist tripe thats posted here on a daily basis.

As you claim not to be biased you went straight to a Liberal talking point narrative to justify your highly subjective opinion that Fox News " distorts the facts ".

Again, you should change your pseudonym and be done with it.

I have more respect for a Lib who throws out lies and misinformation in a attempt to justify his ideology than someone who misrepresents themselves as " unbiased ".
