    I dont show any contempt for any of them. I hold them all on EQUAL ground. I only defend fox to show they are no worse then others.

    or maybe you dont see the amount of Fox bashing that goes on. i.e this thread.

    thats cute.

    how can you be so against someone who is the leading voice for getting Jessica's Law passed in all 50 states?

    I just don't like the way O'reilly attacks people like Glick, tells everyone to shut-up, lies and plagiarizes other's statements. Besides that, I guess he's an alright guy.

    i think fox goes beyond the other networks. for example their slogan of 'fair and balanced' or 'we report, you decide' and yet even you adn the fox defenders will saythey have an obvious bias...so then, you are admitting they lie w/ their slogans! they are not fair and balanced and they don't report and let you decide, they don't give you the whole story. i never said cnn or msnbc does, but their slogans don't claim this

    you're saying there is an equal bias on all networks? that these supposed liberal networks are just as exclusionary as fox is? do they say they are balanced when they are anything but?

    and i think fox's load is a bit heavier. like my example of pushing hte kerry/more foreign leaders comment all the way up until election even well after it was proven he never said this. while i think the other networks distort i haven't seen anything on this scale this consistently.

    and what do i need to wake up from?

    US news is crap, and if anyone wants to go check out some actual intrnational news, they might get some real info...NPR is the only decent news source around right now. bbc international does a decent job at giving some actual INFORMATION, and covers actual EVENTS that are going on around the world. i think their coverage of anna nicole may be a bit lagging, but otherwise they do a fine job of covering international news. and i finally got to watch al-jazeera's international network when i was in vietnam that was developed for the US market, but which no cable company will pick up. it was DAMN good. a very interesting perspective on international politics...i only wish i could watch it here at home!

    i have a new favorite example of fox new bias, BTW...in their fair and balanced reporting, they had one guest on earlier today to discuss unicef's report on America lagging behind the rest of the western world on a number of key issues (health care, education, etc.). this guest was WAY right wing, and the host (can't remember who) was of the same cut. in discussing why the US came in last out of 21 countries for infant mortality, this guest said, "well unicef is not taking into account the high number if immigrants we have that skew that statistic."

    ok, so that means, for white people, we have a great mortality rate, but those fucking mexicans are ruining it because we won't give them access to health care and their babbies keep dying. hard hitting reporting, fox. if only that fence could get built a bit faster!!!

    so these fucking Mexicans that you speak of, that come into this country illegally, should have full access to government provided free health care?

    dude, get outside of the box. try and see how other people live for a change. leave the country, and not just for a beach resort in the bahamas.
    we are not the almighty, as much as you may believe that we are. the silent majority should be heard, and al-jazeera does actually give voice to those in the undeveloped world...plus you've never seen it, and are just repeating talking points that you hear on fox news


    and i think we all should have government provided health care. we are the only "westernized" country to not have it. its bullshit.

    and the fox news "panel" that i was refering to was not speaking of illegal immigrants, they were just speaking of immigrants in general who are giving us white-folk a bad name...*note sarcasm*

    It has been studied that a majority of Fox News viewers actually still believe that the Iraq caused 9/11. Goes to show how much they spin the news. And to prove that they don't report news, I could direct you to my mother,who's a big fan. I asked her the other day what she thought of our hometown being the major weather-news event in national news for a week straight (I'm from a town where they got over 10 feet of snow over 7 days, and it was on all....wait a minute....MOST of the major networks.) She said that FOX News, the only news she watches, never mentioned it. Goes to show that they don't mention real facts, that the majority of their news is nothing but spin. They don't even report the weather.

    Couldn't be more true. All mainstream media is controlled by the government here in the US. You have to look outside of our country to actually get real facts.

    dont take this the wrong way but your mother is an idiot. I watch Fox news and they have never given a case that Iraq was responsible for 9/11. I also have seen several times the reports of all the snow you are getting.

    wow. big swing a miss here. media is in no way controlled by government. it is controlled by executives who want to maximize profits.
