Opposing views are fine, spin and distortion of the truth something else altogether. Taking the viewers for utter idiots...
they are probably right there, as far as the regulars are concerned.

I can handle opposing views. I routinely watch Fox and listen to talk radio to keep up on the views and talking points of the right.
What I don't like is that the vast majority of followers of these "news outlets" are like rabid wolves. They are not capable of separating fact from opinion, they truly seem to put no further research into their beliefs and just take as fact what they are told.

Fox lies. Remember Congressman Mark Foley, the REPUBLICAN Congressman from Florida who sent salacious e mails to under age teenage boys? Fox deliberately labeled him a Democrat, not once, not twice, but three times! When Congressman William Jefferson was arrested for corruption they deliberately put up a picture of Barak Obama. They deliberately try to bias their coverage. Please do not think that a boob like Bill O'Reilley or Sean Hannity is a journalist, they are spokespeople for the gop. Fox is a crock.

I once said that Fox News{False News} is dividing America,but people took me to be wrong,however,I am glad that some people are now seeing the rottenness of Fox News.
Fox news is poison to the mind,in my opinion,I think they should be bound from the airwaves,they are bias and they report nonsense.They are a disgrace to the American people.

Faux News couldn't terrify an insect. Those who reject Faux do so because they have become an industry joke as far as journalism goes. If you're a far right winger, they're your cup of tea, if not you probably care about real news, not biased reporting. It doesn't have anything to do with fear, it has to do with actually wanting to see discussions about current events that present both sides of the issue without an obvious bias to one side or the other.

Have you ever heard Wild Bill O. respond to a viewpoint that he didn't agree with?
You should have, it happens at least 2 or 3 times a show.
That's the main reason I quit watching Fox. The political commentary is a freaking joke man.
Your news channel has to learn how to handle opposing views before you come on here criticizing me.

Hehe - Why does the mainstream media make Fox viewers keep watching Fox? I suppose the real world doesn't fit the con ideology.

Opposing views supported with facts, no problem. Ranting about liberals destroying America, big problem, especially when government has basically been run by republicans for the past eleven years.

Because they are afraid. They saw what happened in the mid-term elections. They know the current polls even look more bleak for the right-wing. Worse yet, their best hope for salvation is a liberal republican who believes in abortion.
