Re: "Turd Bird?" said by pnh102:said by JakCrow:You were the one wanting evidence these guys are not reputable news sources, which I have easily provided. You provided nothing. Your quibble was with an opinion piece presented on an opinion program. If you actually watched Hannity and Colmes you would know that the hosts of this program make it very clear that this is an opinion program and not a news program. said by JakCrow:I have clearly indicated twice that it's the viewers that have a "problem" separating opinion from real news. If you are indeed watching Hannity and Colmes, then you're personifying this problem. LOL, this should be one fo the "10 most pathetic mumb ling of BBR" ever.  |

Sure, FOX NEWS has plenty of opinionated hosts...but CNN has just as much biased opinions flying around as well.
You want to figure out the truth in the news? Listen to a news story reported by each respectfully then put it together because neither side of news network politics will offer the unbiased truth... -- Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy |

There's nothing like that, I agree. However there's a huge difference between CNN or MSNBC and FauxNews and I'm sure you know this.  |

Did you know that the woman she "bullied" into committing suicide tried to sell her baby's car seat 3 days BEFORE he disappeared?

Did you see the interview? Didn't seem very upset, or able to keep her story straight. The only sin Nancy Grace committed is doing this on CNN and not Fox, a shill and bully pulpit for the right wing moral "majority". |

 JakCrow join:2001-12-06 Palo Alto, CA | reply to pnh102 said by pnh102:said by JakCrow:So, using this logic, FNC's 24% downturn in ratings is because they've been caught lying. Seems about right. Meanwhile, other networks have seen an increase in viewership. Hmmm.... Ok, I will type this very, very slowly so you understand it: When has FOX News Been Caught Lying In a NEWS piece? What? We're simply using your logic. FNC's ratings have sunk 24%, so it must be because they've been lying.
Now, just so you don't make the same mistake again, someone stating an opinion, in the context of an opinion show, even if it is something with which you may not agree, is NOT lying about NEWS. His opinion may be wrong, but since its not NEWS, it doesn't count as lying during NEWS.
You sure like to put words in other peoples' mouths. It's a very lame tactic. |

Ok, I'll accept your premise. Now all you have to do to convince me that FOX News is full of BS is to show me an example of a news story that was broadcast on FOX News that was later shown to be a lie. You get bonus points if FOX News continued to stick by the story even after it was proven to be a lie.
I figured this would be a very easy game to play, since FOX News, according to you people, is lying about everything all the time. This should provide you with at least one concrete example. -- Only SHATNER is Kirk. |

 pnh102Reptiles Are Cuddly And PrettyPremium join:2002-05-02 Mount Airy, MD | reply to kamm The Puffington Host? And you people tell me I am confusing news with opinion?
Besides... Given their own slant, I am willing to go out on a limb and state that even though percentages are down, the sheer number of viewers for FOX News still is higher than CNN or MSNBC. That is, that 35% for CNN may only represent very few people, compared to the 24% for FOX News, where it may represent a far greater number of people.
Besides, the article doesn't mention that they are still drawing more viewers than CNN and MSNBC put together. If they were not, then that itself would have been the headline, and not your little story about percentages. -- Only SHATNER is Kirk. |

 cwy1980Premium join:2004-08-10 Monmouth Junction, NJ | reply to wev567 Oh boy did you miss my point... 
My point is none of the supposedly unbiased news networks deserve to be considered a fair and unbiased source of news information.
I think I learn more from the Daily Show and the Colbert Report about current events than I do from CNN Headline News or and Fox or network evening news broadcast... -- Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy |

FauxNews is DOWN BY A LOT, CNN and MSNBC are UP BY A LOT. Hard facts are painful but still true. |

 | reply to Zoly FoxNews is really one of the only reliable outlets in American media. It's funny how the commies label everything that doesn't give the party line propaganda. Really if you watch CNN and don' see their obvious bias, lies,and the way they cater to the lowest common denominator you really are an idiot. |
