Does anyone not "get",.... Fox News

There's a LOT of "bread and circuses" nonsense in America today.

Certainly for the same reasons.

I mostly just call it Reality-TV Drama. We love it, and it's dumb.
 
That's the idiotic right wing logic. The entire world but Fox is biased against them. All of science, all media, all universities, education centers, etc. it shows where the real bias is, in Fox news an the bull**** the right wing clings to. And its proven to be true every day when they can't defend their positions with facts, logic and reasoning. Just deflections and making statements with nothing to back it up

That's why Fox has such high ratings, right wingers like to flood to the propaganda. They even brag about the Fox ratings, like tha'ts a good thing. Meanwhile, liberals get their information from numerous sources. So they pathetically try to deflect to accuse liberals of things they are guilty of 100%.

It's always the same, make a dumb statement (or just copy some hacks statement) and deflect with dumb one liners. Proving they have nothing

???

science? all universities? education centers?

Dude...we are talking about Mainstream Media. Dial back your hyperbole a bit, eh?

Trump hating useful idiots, as you say, get their information from numerous sources. The problem is, though, all of those sources are part of the Trump hating multimedia echo chamber. The useful idiots would be better off cutting out the middle man and just get their info from the Trump hating Mainstream Media.

The really lazy useful idiots already do that.
 
Does anyone not "get" that Fox News is a straight propaganda outlet for the Trump campaign?

Honest question. Anyone that naive, brainwashed or stupid?

Just changing the channels everytime I go by Fox News it's an infomercial for TRump.

People, this is not good.

I always get a chuckle out of these pro or anti Fox news or pro or anti CNN and MSNBC. Fact is all three are propaganda wings of their ideology. One might even say all three are propaganda wings of the RNC and DNC. Want you news from an anti-Trump point of view, watch CNN and MSNBC. Want your news from a Pro Trump point of view, watch Fox. The cable news networks are purely biased.

Why not? Each is corporate owned and their number goal is to make a profit, make money. Not delivering the straight news fully, accurately and fair. Each network tries to give it viewing audience the news in the way their viewers want. First priority, keep existing viewership. Second priority, add viewership. The more folks watch these news channels, the more money they can make from their commercials, the more profit each makes.

fox is unique in that it is the only station to slant their news toward a conservative point of view. Hence they have the largest viewing audience. MSNBC and CNN split the liberal viewing audience.

Our biggest problem with almost all news organizations these days is that they have taken sides in our political battles instead of just reporting on them. All are biased and all slant the news to fit their proper agenda. Fox is not different.
 
A free press is actually quite important. What we have now are media outlets owned by a small number of people and all vying for ratings. They sensationalize everything, spin, and distort. I watch Fox, but I also watch CNN, BBC, NPR, etc. I take all news media outlets with a grain of salt, as unfortunately, we are in a realm of captured media.

But a true free press is an important function, as it can report the actions and concerns of government to the People so that the People may be better informed and in turn control the government more appropriately and intelligently. If we had an unbiased free-press we would be greatly served. Although...I wonder if modern America would even watch such a thing. Perhaps it's our appetites for sensationalized garbage that has driven the media into the place it is currently.

I agree that a true free press is important.

The Mainstream media is not important.
 
And look, dumb deflection, no argument. To you everything but fox is kooky left. You are just proving my point.




You just proved my point, I even posted about it. It's clear you don't read people's posts or you wouldn't have embarrassed yourself. Bragging about ratings just shows right wingers flock teo the propaganda while liberals go elsewhere for news.

THat's how dumb right wingers are, they don't realize how stupid they look with their dumb one liners and childish attempts at deflections LOL

that would make anybody who may be questioning their intelligence feel like a genius here, constantly destroying the dumb from the right.

It's hardly deflection to show you practicing what you preached about others.
It's called irony that addresses your lack of self-awareness.

nobody educated, honest and objective takes fox news seriously and thinks its a honest fair and balanced news outlet or even close. If they do, well that tells you all you need to know about them
with that said, at the same is this is also true of MSNBC and many other news orgs also.... :shrug:

now i rank fox the worse with MSNBC second but thats just my personal ranking, to each thier own as long as those are among the worse.

There is a VERY big difference between Fox and MSNBC.

Watch Fox News and you will see.

It features raw hate for one, something absent from MSNBC and it "collaborates" with Trump. mSNBC has no nightly phone calls with Pelosi to strategist and work on "messaging."

Fox News stands alone, very alone.

Bragging about ratings is ignorance and of course often used as a fallacy of logic to claim some sort of correctness in this measurement.

If you believe this than you simply do not know what you are talking about.

Read my posts in the thread for your edification.

again, you are unaware and did not read my post in this thread that explains this.

You just don't get it. Your view is the popular one. The view from those who base their decisions on sound bites. The vast majority. Sometimes you need to peel the onion a bit before you understand situations.

Plus Fox was not set up as a "News" organization. It does not do the journalist thing as the others do. CNN has real reporters, around the world.
 
1.) There is a VERY big radiance between Fox and MSNBC.
2.)Watch Faox News and you will see.
3.) It features raw hate for one, something absent from MSNBC and it "collaborates" with Trump. mSNBC has no nightly phone calls with Pelosi to strategist and work on "messaging."
4.) Fox News stand alone, very alone.

1.) sorry i cant logically agree with "very big difference" between them
2.) i already watch both and i dont see a "very big difference"
3.) you are free to have that opinion all you like but the point remains if you think either is fair balanced and unbiased it says more about you
4.) nope just the ****tiest among ****ty IMO

Biases, one either looks at this through deep red tinted glasses or deep blue tinted glasses. Depending on the color of glasses one wears, ideology is how one views Fox, CNN and MSNBC. I also think as times goes by, more and more Americans are becoming aware of all this biased reporting. "Americans' Trust in Mass Media Sinks to New Low"

You clearly reject reality.

There is nothing I can for that.

Bias and partisanship always enter the fray when it comes to Fox and CNN and MSNBC. Liberals, Democrats love the later two, hate Fox. Conservatives love Fox, hate the latter two.

Reality to one is another's fantasy. I don't trust none of the three. Not to report the news fairly, accurately and fully. None do. I don't need help in determining that. All three are in the hip pockets of either the RNC or DNC.

his post contains more reality than every post you made in this thread added up. lol
 
Since I have complained about it endlessly here, I should note that CNN and MSNBC have stopped referring to everything under the Conspiracy/Collusion umbrella as Collusion and has finally begun to call it like it is.

Conspiracy is a crime for which a Prosecutor can Indict to Prosecution and the bar to make a Conspiracy case is very high. Collusion is not a crime that a Prosecutor can Indict any American Citizen for including the President. Collusion is something a President can be Impeached for but is not something anybody can be Indicted for. Month after month after month, Cable News has referred to the Mueller Probe as "looking for Collusion" when there was utterly no reason to assume that he was. Finally, FINALLY at least two of the Cable News channels are distinguishing between the two. i cannot tell you how many times I wanted to pull my hair out hearing this nonsense. Why do you think we had newspapers printing big headlines "NO COLLUSION" after the Barr Letter was released.

So I would suggest that there is at least one glimmer of light.

I thought I was the only one that was pulling hair out everytime I heard them say Trumps made up nonsense.
Thank you.
 
Repubs see real propaganda as news, and see news as propaganda. Up is down, black is white.

It's a sibling of a mentality that would shout, "Dems hate jews". If they believe lies like that, then lies can propagate in republican circles, like algae in a stagnate lake.

If this were not true, Fox "news" could not exist. Shows like Hannity are tabloid TV.

There is no way in hell anyone can say that about Rachel Maddow.

I can, and have not a bit of problem with it.

Don't worry CNN and MSNBC are killing it in the ratings because everyone agrees with you.
 
This sounds like a cry for help!

It is, one more people in america should be repeating but hey, if we're going to have a dictator it might as well be trump, I saw a wonderful lady saying on television.
 
The fact it unhinges hard core leftweenies is more than worth it.

And that my friends is half of the mind of a conservative. If it bugs liberals, I'm for it even if 'it' hurts me.
