It's called sensationalism. Attach a sense of urgency regardless of the topic, add an attractive blond to tell you about the "alert", play off of the emotional inadequacy of the viewer and you have a recipe guaranteed to draw in the unintelligent masses.

The posters that absolutely hate, abhor, debase FOX are the same ones that adhere to a progressive agenda.

Just an interesting observation.

Motive, perhaps for the hate?

Why does someone necessarily adhere to a progressive agenda if they disagree with Fox? You actually illustrate one of the tactics used by Fox....disagree with them, they label you a liberal progressive commie.

Can you comment on the facts brought against Fox? For example, as pointed out in the video I posted earlier, how can Fox be considered a news outlet when they have openly endorsed, financed and promoted protests and actions in direct opposition of the US Government?

By definition, that would make Fox a political action organization, not a news source.

Beezer, you know better and you know Fox is garbage.

The Hatred That Many Have on Fox News is Simply Partisanship

Yep they don't like competition, they don't want any opinions out there other than their own it is their way or the highway.

Partisanship from those who claim to be liberal, who claim to be unbiased from those who go around claim fair shot fair play, and all that rubbish

No. You're categorising me now. I just pointed out that those who hold a progressive agenda, hate Fox. As seen just on this thread alone. Are you saying that it is not true? I never stated liberal-progressive-commie.

I just stated those that hold to a progressive agenda.

Are we going to nitpick and go back and forth with purile examples by both media establishments? If so, please defend MSNBC's use of the race card.

Or do you not want to be "fair and balanced"?

Beezer, you know better and you know Fox is garbage.

As stated in a previous post, FOX provides for one side, MSNBC for the other.

i dont know if you mean me,?
but i tend to think "the truth" is more important than bias,
and "the facts" are more important than bias
and that "anyone" who goes to court to support the right to "misinform"

should not be called "news"
so call it FOX (fine)
but call it fox NEWS (is not ok)

it is ILLEGAL in my country to "knowingly" transmit false or "intentionally misleading" information in the format of NEWS

this law is to prevent people from being "manipulated"

I'm not picking on you or anyone else.

Just making an observation. I see a correlation between political ideology and preference to a certain news outlet.

as one has already said, fox calls themselves entertainment. that allows them to lie with impunity. they even went to court on this and one. the judges stated that since they call themselves entertainment, they do not have to follow journalistic standards. remember the republican rep. mark foley busted for sexting teen male pages? whne the story broke on fox, they purposely changed his party affiliation when his picture was shown to that of a democrat. and he is not the only one they did that too. that is just one example.

i am on the left, i admit. i do not care for those on my side who bend the truth either. when one of ours does so, i am just as pissed at them.

All mainstream media is filtered. MSNBC just happens to be one of the most obviously biased. Why do you think it's such a favorite channel amongst the left-wing?

There fixed it for you. See how that works?

So says you. Most rational humans hate Fox news because it is garbage. Same reason most hate MSNBC.
