I was reading a few threads on ATS and alot of people are bashing Fox News
They laugh that Fox News was your source? HAHAHAHA and posts like that
But how come these same people don't say that about MSNBC or CNN?
MSNBC is a horrible news station, maybe Dylan Ratigan is sometimes good but other than that it's SUCKS!!!
So why do they only hate Fox?
I'll tell you why... it's because though MSNBC spreads propoganda all the time it's liberal commentary so it's fine!
Same thing like all those who hated Bush for what they considered as war crimes now give Obama the pass after he expanded the war into the entire middle east after campaigning as a peace candidate.
Some people really really need a reality check
And some consider themselves skeptics yet still behave like this

Obama won the election, the dems are in power and she, the spoilt little rich girl cheerleader (as I see her coming across) expects the person with the popular mandate to be the one to be conciliatory. The sheer arogance of this stuck up little b!tch.
Maybe I have a skewed view on things, but imo, if the people of the USA have voted Obama in over the other bloke, then shouldn't the other party capitulate and allow their elected leader do his thing?
Journalists can editorialize however they want. Most people can see that for what it is. One person's opinion. The person may be right or wrong.
Opposition parties in parliamentary governments never capitulate but they are usually forced to accede to the government's wishes because they are out voted on every bill.
Under the US system the President's party would have to have a majority in the House and Senate for this to occur. At present they still have to deal with a Republican majority in the House and it is the House that is supposed to control the nation's purse strings. The President has to make them see reason or to compromise with them on spending bills. That's just the way it is for the most part, in the US.
As previously noted in Pawns of the Global Elite, Barack Obama was groomed for the presidency by key members of the Trilateral Commission. Most notably, it was Zbigniew Brzezinski, co-founder of the Trilateral Commission with David Rockefeller in 1973, who was Obama’s principal foreign policy advisor.
For anyone who doubts the Commission’s continuing influence on Obama, consider that he has already appointed no less than eleven members of the Commission to top-level and key positions in his Administration.
◦Secretary of Treasury, Tim Geithner
◦Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice
◦National Security Advisor, Gen. James L. Jones
◦Deputy National Security Advisor, Thomas Donilon
◦Chairman, Economic Recovery Committee, Paul Volker
◦Director of National Intelligence, Admiral Dennis C. Blair
◦Assistant Secretary of State, Asia & Pacific, Kurt M. Campbell
◦Deputy Secretary of State, James Steinberg
◦State Department, Special Envoy, Richard Haass
◦State Department, Special Envoy, Dennis Ross
◦State Department, Special Envoy, Richard Holbrooke

Care to point out an example of where anyone has tried to get Fox off the air? Pointing out something is a joke obviously is fair game on either side...who is trying to take away anything? Fox does a good enough job of highlighting their own absurdities that no rational left winger would ever want it shut down...it truly is comedy gold.

No way you can say Fox News, CNN and MSNBC are equal. Fox News takes the blatant lie and manipulation of their viewers to another level and it's not even close. The reason I hate CNN is because they are getting very sensationalist but they don't blatantly lie to their viewers every day(well most of the time anyways) like Fox News does.edit on 19-11-2012 by Flow101 because: (no reason given)
