They only want media sources to exist that THEY can control. They're having trouble dealing with the fact that large sources of media can call bull **** on their lies.

I don't object at all, and I'm a total lefty.
I actually do watch Billo, Rush and Hannity sometimes. It's hard to....but I do...if anything just to keep up on the other sides' views.
I try not to let personalities get in the way of principles.
As far as Coulter, she absolutely nauseates me and I avoid her as passionately as she avoids pies.
Not every liberal hates you, you know.

I don't object to your reading Coulter, listening to Limbaugh or watching Fox News. I only object to the notion that anyone would offer those references seriously, or expect others to take them seriously. They're all reactionaries. They have an a priori conclusion for everything, and their 'facts' are contrived and configured to support their conclusions. They simply don't care what's true. They're in the business of creating impressions based on little or nothing.

Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are liars and hypocrites of the highest order. Faux News is just hilarious to watch.
I don't care what you watch. Ann Coulter is known to take things way out of context. And I mean way out of context. I've read a lot of her "source" material and in no way does it back up her arguments. In fact, several times it contradicts what she wants it to say.
Rush Limbaugh is a master liar. Before he got caught with his pills, he was all about punishing those that abused prescription drugs and went doctor shopping. Especially those that used their celebrity to get out of it. Yet, what was it he did? He used his celebrity to get out of the charges.
As for Faux News, I don't know where to begin.

I don't know that there are objections, as much as there are criticisms. I'm certain that the dems aren't worried about your being 'dumbed down', but I can tell you as a non-partisan individual, it does concern me. When I read, watch and listen - OBJECTIVELY - to the list you've provided, I see a group of people fueling the fires of hatred in this country. Fanning the flames is irresponsible - and something that could blow up in everyone's faces!

This liberal doesn't give a damn what you listen to or read.
I don't pay attention to Ann, Rush or Fox, but enough people obviously do or they wouldn't be on the air.

Ann Coulter makes remarks that are just plain scary. For people to listen to what she says, or a majority of what she says, is scary to me. I don't listen to Rush enough to know anything more then he is a typical entertainer who follows an ideology. A republican Micheal Moore if you will. And Fox News is fine as long as you understand they are bias.

Frankly my dear I do not give a damn what you watch. I am a Liberal and I watch them also and chuckle. LOL Laughter is good for the soul and silly people make me laugh.

Object? No, but I do get a good laugh at the fact that so many people seem to think there fair and balanced when its been proven over and over that they aren't.

Read, listen to or watch whatever you want, it's a free country. Just don't complain when you make comments that are untrue and you end up having to eat your words.

This liberal has no objection. Do whatever you want. It's a free country. I just think it's pathetic.
