Sure jeepeer_peeper, I actually don't have an affliation to any network news or news channel. They all have their own issues. I do read the NYTimes everyday, however.

You know I used to watch fox, especially O'Reilly and Hannity, as comic relief. Then I realized how many people actually believe that fox is the unbiased truth and I began to fear the influence (unwarranted) that this propaganda channel was having on a huge segment of our population. Conservatives complain about a liberal media, someone should force a fact check on fox, Hannity and O'Reilly make things up to suit their ratings and people buy into it, it's really terrifying.

could be and probably is. Louis Black said it during an onstage act of standup that I respect because he says what others are afraid to. He said that he should run for president, that he could sit, watch tv and guess with the best of them. In comedy it was funny, but in contrast it was because the denial of information of hurricane katrina. We watch the storm for 72 hourse with 120+ mph winds move for the mainland and did nothing until the members of congress discussed the tradgedy as , did you see the new show last night, where did they get those extras and the special affects are so real. Yet, Mr. Bush said he was uninformed and we saw him watching the news, aids informing him of them yet the day it happened he wasn't informed. That is the style of leadership that tv promotes, practical joke or not.

Of all the networks it is the one that comes the closes to give you real info and news and not a prepared agenda like the so called the "Big 3" for example, ABC, NBC or CBS, which I don't even watch much anymore.
How funny that now that things are getting quiet in Iraq and the trend in slowly getting to be of control and good for our side all you hear in the Big 3 is stories about medicine and other things while in the past when things were going bad for us in Iraq all you could hear about in those Big 3 was Iraq Iraq Iraq uh?
So do the Big 3 have an agenda? I wonder!!!!!!!!
So I stick with Fox, it may not be perfect but it is closer to the truth!

Why because the give a fair and balanced report using reporters on BOTH sides rather than the rest whom use only the left...LIKE THE NY TIMES...how is that story about the soldier going...seems like they failed to check the facts and bashed GW only to find out he was a fraud and was NEVER deployed...GREAT FAIR REPORTING....bet you loved the"honest" Dan Rather as well
Sorry lib but the Fox (#1 Rated) News gives BOTH sides much to the displeasure of the libs....THEY HATE FACTS
There are opinion shows on that station...but they say they are OPINION shows...
Unlike the other major networks that get 4 libs together and call it news...so whine all you want...as # 1 in the polls the BALANCED REALITY NEWS on Fox...is here to stay

Firefox News
Key people Roger Ailes, Chairman & CEO
Ailes carried out Republican political consulting for many candidates during the 1970s and 1980s, but returned to presidential campaigning as a consultant to Ronald Reagan in 1984. He is widely credited with having coached Reagan to victory in the second presidential debate with Walter Mondale
Fox News: Owner News Corporation
Rupert Murdoch, CEO and Chairman
In the US, Rupert Murdoch has been a long-time supporter of the Republican Party and was a friend of Ronald Reagan. Regarding Pat Robertson's 1988 presidential bid, he said, "He's right on all the issues." Many Christian conservatives were dismayed when Robertson sold his television network to Murdoch. Murdoch's papers strongly supported George W. Bush in both the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections.
Still think Firefox is unbiased ? It's OWNED by 2 republicans =) lol

Yes it is, all of American citizens listen to the media and believe all they hear. I am one of the sheeps following the herd. Breaking loose of the herd to learn more about how the media is takes research. Talk to anyone that came back from Iraq. They will tell you the truth.

I just think they are rather silly and robotic. . It's not as though they are using their own brains. All they do is read the prompts. The women cross and uncross their legs all of the time and men are forever pressing their hair back with their fingers. And they all grin a lot. They aremind me of a moire adult brand of Teletubbies

Not here. However, some questions on here appear to be nothing less than a mirror image of the asker. A Joke.
