Just a small sample of how Fox is much more bias than any other network

If you've ever watched Outfoxed...this is an example

You will NEVER find such outrageous hosts and such controversial guests used to make liberal points

It's fox that's FILLED with the hosts that are like (don't parry with a "1 hour of KO") this and on every program they try to put in these OFFICIAL fox news contributors, and guests

You see Dennis Miller and go "oh, well he's just a comedian" Bzzzt! He's employed by Fox News, he's not a frequent guest or something along those lines.

Walk in the door, see an hour of Cavuto, who goes "It's really cold out today so that disproves global warming", then check out Gibson who goes "minorities are on the rise, we need white people to start having more babies!", then the 'flagship news program' with the Weekly Standard "all-star panel" of right-wingers, then one brief break with Smith who does an ET style news program, but back to BillO and I don't even have to go there, Same with the next hour of Hannity,

I've just covered the 6 hours of prime time from 4pm-10pm...look how horrible that looks, look at those videos

It's weighing SO HARD, SO RIGHT there's no way anyone could make anything close to similiar claims against CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC...infact I doubt even if you cherry picked from all of those places, you couldn't put together pieces like "outfoxed" or "fox attacks" does

and certainly no network has such a ridiculous prime time lineup, which is preceded by the "cost of freedom" and bracketed by weekend programs like Oliver North's far right wing "America is flawless always" Beltway Boys with right wingers, etc etc

I just watched the first one but

this is hee-uge!!

Diesel66 · 07-31-2007, 08:36 PM

why are you putting up an opinion show ? THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BIASED.

Or using their GUESTS' opinion as proof that the station is biased ?

Not just most, but nearly all...the point is they try to pass off many of these shows as actual news shows, and when its really obvious, they call it "the news, ya know, news analysis"

Besides Shepard Smith (who I don't hear anyone championing) you have 6 straight hours of Fox News Prime Time...that is all bias

If only one show is keeping your entire prime time lineup from being totally opinion...then I don't know whether you run a news network...its opinion journalism

Hannity is supposedly "fair and balanced" as is BillO

Cavuto is supposed to be a straight business news program

Gibson is labeled as a news program as far as I can tell, etc etc

Cox Cable = 240 Channels
Time Warner = 140 Channels
Direct TV = 185 Channels
Dish Network = 250 Channels

Liberals need to learn how to change the station.

But hell. If Fox news gets this kind of reaction every day. Enough to have movies made about them. Web sites created to monitor them. Thousands of threads in various web sites talking about them. They must being doing something right!

You have just given up the right to bitch about CNN, CBS, MSNBC and any "liberal" newspaper.

Do a search and count how many threads I have started about any of those. Hell, Thor has created at least 13 THREADS about Fox News all by himself!!!

It's an unhealthy obsession.

DosEquis · 08-01-2007, 12:43 PM

That daily show bit in the first one had me crackin up. "Obama has binladen with alqaeda problems"

Yeah, it's crazy to talk about a right wing propaganda channel, who spreads blatant lies and half-truths, on a political forum.

Maybe not crazy. But childish. What more can be said that hasn't already been said? I know people are pussy hurt because it gets such huge ratings. But it's the only station that isn't completely controlled by liberals and people like to tune in to hear the other half of the story for a change. I understand how that must bring some liberals/Democrats to tears but they have plenty of other channels to get fed the views they want to hear. Quit obsessing over one cable channel.

I'd like a list of these liberal owners since you're so sure they're run by liberals, surely you have a list handy complete with their affiliations to liberal groups

Liberals and Democrats whine about 2 methods that people are finally starting to get some conservative viewpoints consistently. Fox News and talk radio.

Liberals/Democrats want legislation to quiet down Talk Radio.

Liberals/Democrats want to boycott advertisers on Fox News.

Why are you people so scared to have an opposing viewpoint? It's just talk. Quit obsessing over it. Go to CNN or MSNBC if you don't like the programs on Fox.

don't say things that are flat out wrong... my post was pointing out how innacurate yours was... i'm still waiting for the list of the other networks' owners that are liberal

I'm not even sure where to start here....

Fairness doctrine is a piece of shit. Few people actually care about it or support it, but it's hardly being used to muzzle conservatives. That's a load of shit. They would still be able to say whatever they want.

And as far as the advertisers on FNC; isn't this how you want liberals to handle things? Now you cry if they run to the government and you cry when they vote with their wallets? What are they allowed to so? Are they required to support companies that buy ad space on a channel that they don't agree with? This is the free market at work and you are bitching about it?

Of course it's being used to muzzle conservatives. Why else would only Democrats want it passed???

Hey, if Democrats want to boycott Ford, Chevy, Victoria Secret, etc because of their inane hate of Fox News more power to 'em

I was using it as an example of the extreme hate and obsession that Democrats/liberals have for one cable channel. It's silly. Isn't changing the channel kind of boycotting their advertisers? They need to do that more often.
