Answer 1

Fox News is trying to bring honesty back to the news.This scares the hell out of Cnn,Msnbc,nbc,abs and cbs.Before fox you heard only liberal slanted news and lies.The reason they are scared shitless of Fox is that fox shows you the truth and has the data to back it up.There is no such thing as investigative reporting any more other than fox.To get on the front page of the New York Times all you have to do isBash America or Bash Bush.If you want to leak top secrets on our troop movements or methods of fighting the enemy call the N.Y.T.One day some young inthusiastic reporter will go through all the material available and proove to the world that the liberal media set our war efforts back by years and that is why fox news is hated by the liberal media.

Answer 2

Orally says dems are afraid? Remember that when a dem somehow got through orally's call screeners and simply said the name Keith Olbermann, Orally threatened to send police to his house.

Orally is a joke, but not a very funny onw. I personally would go on his show any time.

Now here's a question... Jimmy Carter, Al Gore and Bill Clinton have all gone on the Daily Show, so has John McCain
and a number of other contending Republicans. Not one person out of Bush's crew of skulking weasels has ever taken the invitation.

Who are the afraid people? Hint... the ones who use the most fear in their rhetoric.

Answer 3

i'm afraid. do you prefer to comprehend why? that's probable not for the reason you think of. that's because of the fact 3/4ths of human beings are uneducated. Uneducated human beings are somewhat basic to control. additionally they are much less possibly to return to logical conclusions and are greater possibly to have faith what they're advised. Fox information has made this an artwork variety. they're owned via a Saudi Prince. They lie to the yank public to greater an unknown time table. sure, i'm very afraid.

afraid of Bill Oreilly paaleeese

democrats don't watch Fox because they Lie and Sued for the right to do it !!!
The Right to Lie in the "News"
If ever we needed to know why the biggest media consumers in the world are so badly informed, this pretty well tells it all. The Media Can Legally Lie.
According to Akre and Wilson, the station was initially very excited about the series. But within a week, Fox executives and their attorneys wanted the reporters to use statements from Monsanto representatives that the reporters knew were false and to make other revisions to the story that were in direct conflict with the facts.
Fox editors then tried to force Akre and Wilson to continue to produce the distorted story. When they refused and threatened to report Fox's actions to the FCC, they were both fired.
Akre and Wilson sued the Fox station and on August 18, 2000, a Florida jury unanimously decided that Akre was wrongfully fired by Fox Television when she refused to broadcast (in the jury's words) “a false, distorted or slanted story” about the widespread use of BGH in dairy cows.
[...] FOX appealed the case, and on February 14, 2003 the Florida Second District Court of Appeals unanimously overturned the settlement awarded to Akre. The Court held that Akre’s threat to report the station’s actions to the FCC did not deserve protection under Florida’s whistle blower statute, because Florida’s whistle blower law states that an employer must violate an adopted “law, rule, or regulation."
In a stunningly narrow interpretation of FCC rules, the Florida Appeals court claimed that the FCC policy against falsification of the news does not rise to the level of a "law, rule, or regulation," it was simply a "policy." Therefore, it is up to the station whether or not it wants to report honestly.
During their appeal, FOX asserted that there are no written rules against distorting news in the media. They argued that, under the First Amendment, broadcasters have the right to lie or deliberately distort news reports on public airwaves.
Fox attorneys did not dispute Akre’s claim that they pressured her to broadcast a false story, they simply maintained that it was their right to do so.
OK, pick your jaw up off the floor. That some court thinks they CAN is bad enough, that these people assert their right to do so pretty well kicks it all down the hole. And these guys wonder why their credibility is in the toilet and the net is burning them left right and centre.

TALK ABOUT HYPOCRITICAL

In 1999, The Economist reported that Murdoch ( Fox News owner) had made £1.4 billion ($2.1 billion) in profits over the previous 11 years but had paid no net corporation tax. It further reported, after an examination of what was available of the accounts, that Murdoch would normally have expected to pay a corporate tax of approximately $350 million. The article explained that the corporation's complex structure, international scope and use of offshore havens allowed News Corporation to avoid tax[

Support the Troops = Not paying Tax = No money for weapons!!!!

Answer 6

Because any time a Democrat wastes their time by appearing on a Fox News show, they're bullied, ganged up upon, harassed, lied to, lied about and shouted over and unable to get a point across.

Answer 7

Some people are so insecure in their views that they are afraid of anyone with an alternative point of view. I am certainly not saying that all democrats feel this way, but some do. Just as some republicans are afraid of CNN.

Answer 8

Bill O'reilly just paid off a sheep not to reveal their sex affair on TV.

That boy doesn't represent anything but a woman who had a sex change.

Answer 9

Bill O'reilly doesn't give the News..he just gives you his opinion.

Answer 10

Becaue Fox News doesn't kiss their a** like all the other networks. And if by gang up on and shout over you mean they actually ask tough, relevant questions then you'd be correct.
