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!


People who deny Fox News accusations can't even say Fox News is good....they can only say the other networks do it too....
Which isn't a solid argument at all!!!

Especially seeing as NO ONE is saying the other networks are great or anything....they are saying Fox News is the WORST!! and your defense is other networks are bad too....but we're not saying they aren't bad, we're talking about just how bad Fox News is....

Do you see it now?

Just so it is understood, and I know this wasn't the OP point, but do you actually watch Fox?
CJ

I love John Stossel and Judge Napolitano


Thanks for the response. I was just curious.

All the threads on these boards,all the cries to take them off the air, all the support for the fairness doctrine yeah silence any viewpoint other than their own.

A famous mantra from the infamous group who claims to be liberal.

Books are thoughts put on a page of a book read at choice and far too many just want to take that choice away from people who "are just too ignorant" to make their own choices.

Fox news exists for them simple fact that not everyone buys the tripe the other side sells.

Kill your TV.

Seriously.

Just hook it up to your PC, stop watching the pre-programmed crap, it's all scripted.

Why even participate in the mind control BS that you willingly place yourself in?

Buy this, buy that, think this, think that, this is right, that is wrong. You need this, this is how much your life sucks, etc.

The internet allows you to break free of most of that, you then become your own guide, what information you seek is up to you.

You'll still be able to find stuff to argue about here with out your idiot box, I promise you this.

I see what you are saying yes, but read the thread
NO ONE is saying otherwise?

I see a thread on Breaking Alternative News and it's source is Fox and the OP always gets hated on for the source
I do not see the same when the source is MSNBC

I understand what you are saying but I disagree with the image that you are painting
I am not saying that everyone who hates Fox loves MSNBC
What I am saying is that there are many that represent a larger number then you seem to think that do feel that way.

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.

NP
But that doesn't mean I like all shows on Fox
I'm not an O'reilly fan or a Sean Hannity fan
And it doesn't mean I dislike all shows on MSNBC, as I said I may sometimes watch Dylan Ratigan

This is just like politics to me, I won't argue about Democrats in an Obama thread, I will argue about Obama the individual.
Same goes for Romney

I don't believe anything is absolutely corrupt
So I never speak in absolutes

Books make people think. Use their imagination.

I have been of the belief that people don't like to think. To use their rational mind.

They just want to stay at the emotional level. Thinkings hard.

Yo use ATS search feature hundreds of anti Fox threads on these boards.

They are easy to find, and a dime a dozen, and worth as much.

I don't like O'reilly considering his support of gun bans and its just fine to take more money from him, and then Bill Crystol support of taxing the rich, and he also supports gun bans.

Those decry Fox never watch the majority of what is said on there.

Does anyone else see the irony in the fact that the religious right (big Fox supporters) are the ones who like to burn books? I don't remeber the zany liberal book burning spree but I may have just missed it...

Here's a guess
Those in this thread saying that Fox News is way worse than MSNBC, they are both bad but Fox is way worse where do you guys stand politically?

Are you liberals, socialists?

If you consider yourselves independants ok but who did you vote for in the end?

Are you really afraid of posters on ATS organizing and getting Fox off the air? Really?

Ok. You are calling out, what, 37 people? Your brush is painting some broad strokes.

I don't think that there has been any zany liberal/conservative book burning sprees lately.

I'm just commenting about how people like their news presented to them in 30 second sound bites.

It's just not good.
