Yes because they don't care about what we want. They have their own agenda.

Actually Fox is thet number one conservative news statioin in the nation. Democrats dont want to go on Fox cause the conservatives there will ask them idiotic questions and make them sound like idiots. What I'm still wondering is why none of the Republicans in our administration right now wont come on any news station and talk to the majority of Americans.

Fox = republican
If you were a democrat would you go on a clearly republican station. Would you go on a show that's going to do nothing but try to make you look bad? If fox wants to have democratic presidential candidates on it's shows it needs to move out of the republican camp!!! News programs are supposed to report the news not create it for there republican friends.

You need to work on your math skills, dude.
Do you know how many news stations there are in the USA? If Fox News is the #1 station, that does not mean their viewers encompass the majority of Americans.
Fox News is viewed by the rightest of the right-wing. It's total propaganda and the Democratic candidates won't benefit from being subjected to their biased questions.

Fox is nothing but far right-wing propaganda. Although the Democrats are also a right-wing party who truly represent the same corporate interests and the same gaggle of wealthy elites as the Republicans, for the Democrats to go on Fox is stupid since that gives the far right-wing a decided home-court advantage with which to attack them.
I mean, imagine if a true left-wing news station existed back in 2000 or 2004. They would have demanded answers from Bush regarding his being AWOL from the military, his fascist-Nazi roots extending back to his grandfather Prescot's financing of the Nazis and his inability to succeed at any of the enterprises he had attempted. He would have been lucky to receive 1% of the vote.

dateline and 60 min are the top shows for news products on the networks.
for balanced and fair reporting of the news, i watch the public television news,
the only thing missing from the fox 'news' ultra-neo-conservitive programing is Pat Robertson, Rush Limbaugh and Pat Buchanan as the left wing point of view advocate,then they need to establish the ultra-right-wing thought gestapo. After all they would need to insure that nobody disagreed with them.

Trevor sure they would never ask him questions about little countries and their governments.(roll eyes) in 2000 the media voted democated 5 to 1 and 2004 voted 7 to 1 democrated according to pew polls. the reason is because they will not give softball questions.

Because they don't want to be trapped into a corner by biased "journalists" who ask question that only make them sound like troop bashing liberals?

Why won't they come on the # 1 rated News Channel? They might get questions their LIB friends in the mainstream media would never want to ask!

You nailed it..... When they debate on networks with ratings in the tank, they can spin their answers because no one actually witnessed the debate.
