@JTT,


Only someone that has no clue what America is all about would make such an asinine statement.

@H2O MAN,
But you are one of those who continually deny what America is all about even with the facts placed right in front of your nose, h2oboy.

Did you find your Depends yet? You've obviously gone far past the wetting stage.

This is asinine. The studies linked talk about political and economic events for which Fox presents a false narrative and their viewers are consistently wrong. Only a fool would think that was the same argument as what you are making here.

You are the one with the false narrative, cyclops. And your arguments are asinine and consistently wrong. If you want to pick on Fox, why don't you actually present evidence, how about that? For example, the Common poet guy report, point out where they reported it falsely. The truth is you don't like Fox because they do not walk in lockstep with liberal fanatics as you apprently are.

You call that poetry, snood? Are you serious? I think a more accurate term would be trash talk, and it is not deserving of the White House.

And I am relieved that he gets the width of the disconnect between the kneejerk rightwing and things that are actually part of modern culture.

I have to say that the race-baiting involved in this Common issue is rather more naked than usual for their side; and it's disgusting to watch.
Cycloptichorn
What is disgusting is the apologies for trash talking on the part of liberals as yourself, cyclops. The country deserves better.

Yeah, Cycloptichorn, take that; the country deserves better, like say, freedom of speech.

I did. I presented you with three different studies showing that Fox news viewers were the least informed on political and economic issues. You refused to read the evidence, because you don't want to see anything that screws up your narrative.

I don't like Fox because they lie to their viewers in order to get ratings; they are the Conservative news station and they tell people like you exactly what they want to hear. They've gone to court to defend their ability to lie to their viewers, and their executives have revealed that they intentionally slant the news and make up scandals for ratings.

@plainoldme,
It's not about what we deserve. It's about what is our right to demand of our government. Are we going to run this country or are we going to be bootlickers like the left? That's the question.

@okie,
There was a link to a Fox story on this page where they misrepresent something

The headline claims American Medical Association Deals Setback to Obamacare yet it isn't the American Medical Association who everyone recognizes as the AMA. I know when someone says American Medical Association I think of the AMA with its 250,000 members.

In reality Fox is talking about the American Medical Group Association which only has about 300 members.

That's not possible, Parados. Fox never misrepresents anything, nor do any of its shills.

@Renaldo Dubois,
The American left was born when the Abolitionists stood against the FFs and the great unwashed that became the right, now that there was a force to oppose it. We have been working since to pick up after the right, correct its mistakes and forge an educated, honorable nation.

@plainoldme,
What was the name of that Republican President who signed the Emanicpation Proclamation? When you get through with that one, you can tell us who the Democrat Senator was that died only a little over a year ago and was a leader in the KKK and filibustered the Civil Rights bill in 1964.

You guys are dumber than a mule fuckin' a goat.

That's true--Fox marches in lockstep with ultra-right fanatics.

@MontereyJack,
As leftist as you are, I would imagine anything conservatively common sense would seem fanatical to you, Jack? Example, anyone that disapproves of a Jeremiah Wright ranting about Jews and rich white people are fanatically right wing? That seems like a weird mindset where I came from, but as I've heard, "it takes all kinds."
