Ahh....so all the left wing ball washing in the 90's wasnt reality? Gotcha. Fantastic.

We need all left leaning networks now godammit!

Ball washing? What are you on about? Did this so-called ball-washing strip the country of it's constitutional rights? Did this ball-washing just hand over £700 billion of taxpayer money to Wall St? Did this ball-washing get the US stuck in Vietnam Part II? I'm curious as to how many senseless deaths and innocent lives this ball-washing caused.

It blows my mind that one network out of a hundred leans right while the others lean left and people only bash the one leaning right for leaning right.

Preach!

there is no major network that balances fox. Fox is so far right they slam neutrality and spin it neocon. No network on any other program does that.

and that's a balance to the entire Fox news network? You're talking about 1 program that's what, an hour, a half hour? Please. Fox is on 24 hours a day.
This one show couldn't possibly counter that.

They are as similar as apples and oranges. The Daily Show does not try to pass itself off as a legitimate news source, but the Factor does.

I'll agree to that. But the Daily show does have a pro left vibe to it. Fox goes for the older conservative crowd with shows like O'Reilly factor that use anger and outrage to piss off viewers as a way to twist facts. The Daily Show pans to the younger liberal crowd with humor and edited clips of politicians that are so taken out of context; they can make anyone seem completely fucked up. Don't get me wrong, that shit is funny; if you watch it enough you can see it has an agenda at its core.

Just my two cents. Not fact.

the daily show might be the only accurate news program on tv. And admittedly, they are a fake news program.

seems if you can laugh about it you have the upper hand.

What upper hand? Obama has really got off easy by the media compared to McCain. You don't even have to like McCain or Obama to see it.

fox supports Mccain. But when a show like the daily show quotes mccain as saying he wouldn't even vote for an immigration bill he proposed, it makes you wonder.


ridicule them. and if they still have a point, maybe they are worth listening too.

oreillly has a point like nazis supporting hitler had a point. It may make sense at the time, but given context and common sense, history will prove them to be fools.

It's not really. A lot of similar tactics and a shitload of devastation. Just because it may not be as bad doesn't mean it's any less despicable.

I do believe MSMBC comes close. Olberman may do that in 1 hour lol. He's insane. Just my opnion though. I think we can all agree that the news media today is in the toilet. LOL didnt mean for this post to head to a conversation on the state of the news media, it was just ment for a quick laugh for my fellow jammers. Only here on the MT.

Please, give me a break. Read into your history a little, this is nothing like Nazi Germany. I can see how you want to connect our current wars with Nazi Occupation, and the Patriot Act as Gestapo tactics, but thats really over the top.

Oh, I hope your not trying to assume you know me personally enough to lable me with out having any idea as to what you're talking about. I think your views are a little blind myself, but I wouldn't compare it to a Nazi supporter.

There are of course many networks that are left... however I would argue that most of the major networks slightly lean left... and that Fox News is waaaaay right.

I think that's why they get so much crap.

Yes, Fox does lean waaaay right...and yet it still doesnt balance out.

Because I don't want to wipe out an entire race. Because I don't want to kill woman and children.
Whats the matter with you?

Do you really not think the US government is guilty of this? Are they not killing tens of thousands of civillians in their wars? And how many of those civillians do you reckon are of a race/religion other than that of those in power?

Funny how some people tend to think that anyone who supported the nazis was some sort of cold blooded killer. But keeping telling yourself whatever allows you to get to sleep at night.
