They even lie about being fair and balanced. Does anyone here really think they are f and b?

Fox snooze is the worst of the lot by far. The funny thing is, if they just didn't try so hard to claim they were fair and balanced, I'd cut them some slack. CNN, MSNBC and all the others of course have at least some biased reporting, but for Fox snooze to make that claim is just plain ludicrous. O'Reilly and Hannity routinely shout down there guests, and will cut them off in mid sentence when there making a valid point and go to a commericial, lol.
I really enjoy it when a guest get the better of those two shills. O'Reilly will show obvious anger by pointing his fingers and acting like an eight grade bully, and Hannity will stutter, shuffle his papers and rudely cut the person off. Yeah, Fox news is a real circus act.

Personally I think that ALL news channels suck, except for "The Colbert Report". All they talk about is the negative issues(15 soldiers died today in Iraq). What about the good things like this many soldiers came home today to their families, or another new school was built for the children of Iraq. The thing is whether people realize it or not, we thrive upon negativity. I'm not supporting censorship but why is it all they have to report is bad stuff?

I agree.
Fair and balanced with an idiot like Ann Coulter showing her ignorance?
Who the hell wants to live in 'Hannity's America'?
The 'King of Spin' telling us that 'the spin stops here'? (What he means is that it 'starts here')
The only 'presenter' who seems to have half a brain is Brit Hulme, but that is because he surrounds himself with halfwits. (Fred Barnes, Mort Kondracke and Chales Krauthammer, aka the poor man's 'The Three Stooges')
No wonder the world thinks Americans are ill-educated!

They lean a little to the right but they are more fair and balanced than every other news channel which are all extremely liberal and spend all of their time bashing Bush

Yes, they are the biggest fraud on television. The whole fair and balanced thing is just a bunch of crap.

Fox News channel isn't even a "news" channel. It's more of a "We heart George Bush" fan club. Hypocrisy flows like water on that network. Their (supposedly) "star" anchor, Bill O'Reilly's classy and intelligent comebacks to those he doesn't agree with? "Shut up." Hey. Great. That's mature, Bill.
Keep in mind that when Fox News' morning "news" show was co-hosted by a puppet. I repeat, a PUPPET!!! There's nothing like getting your daily morning news from a puppet. Classy.

Basically they are the mouthpiece for the Bush administration. They are about as far from fair and balanced as a channel can be, and they really shouldn't even use the word "news" in their name. It should be "Fox opinion."

You're right. If someone has a different view than you, they should be silenced.
Maybe we could call their different views (lies).That way our views would be known as truths

It is not a "news channel"...it is a pure Republican propaganda machine and an absolute joke in terms of honest journalism...it is essential a paid advertising campaign for the far right
