The first 20 seconds or so: where Fox News allegedly stacks the audience at their debate, according to one candidates wife!

???

How about this:
Where CNN has their script reading monkey attempt to flagrantly debase a presidential candidate throughout the entire interview, only to conclude with "Right now, looks like you've got some momentum!
... HUH !!??!!


WTF.

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.

    Yes, i've seen it.

    No, i doubt anyone is suprised.

    But they should be really pissed off that such a base act of "fraud" was perped on something as important to the american process of liberty as presidential debates.

    I did find it weird when he was booed en mass like that, because he has said "worse" things at other debates and NEVER got a reaction like that.

    But, suddenly you get Fox, who is openly hostile with him, and omfg, here come 200 people booing in unison ...

    unless BOOM was there, and we just didn't know it.

    Cmon Drifting....Fox is awesome!!

    It's Fox...Foxy...Foxalicious!!

    I watched Fox once and it seriously Foxed up my brain. I thought to myself after...man that's seriously Foxed.

    (p.s. Outfoxed should be a permanent feature in the cinemas btw)

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    When the Court's sanctioned Fox's (the media's) right to lie and the Supreme Court did nothing, it opened the doors to anything goes.

    My question is, can I now yell fire in a crowded, pubic, place and not be held liable for the consequence of what happens? Can I tell a blind person the light is green when its red? I know you're thinking that's different, people could die?

    Yeah they may die instantly, as opposed to long term slow death by cancer causing agents, or lead poisoning. Yet, people don't seem to care that the result is the same because somehow they believe its either ok or unstoppable because it is being committed by a corporation, a faceless entity they can't win against.
    SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.

    FOX is really good at what they do... I mean, 'Star Wars'... come on, that should be one of those 'Enough said' examples. But they have also brought us 'The Simpsons' and the NFL. FOX is great at entertainment... such as 'The O'Rielly Factor' and 'Hannity and Combes'... you'd almost expect those characters to be real... but, they are just more characters... like Jabba The Hut or Homer Simpson.

    I'm starting to wonder why TV debates arent required to be done on several PUBLIC channels as well.

    I'm dead serious.

    If we have a federal law which REQUIRES states & local municipals to offer Public Access Channels,

    why not pass a similar law, REQUIRING politicians to engage in 2 or 3 debates in a PUBLIC forum ...

    ... a forum that is required to be broadcast, regardless of who disagrees, and one that is done by peope who are just ordinary UNincorporated folk.
