Fox News: Fair and Balanced. Really

[pontooner]

Hey 'tooner how've you been?

You've posted links from left wing web sites attacking Fox News, further proving a point. I could dig up stories of how much GE (the owners of NBC) have given the Dems in donations and publicity, but I'm too lazy.

The left hates Fox News because they no longer have a monopoly on the news. You want true proof go to PEW or another unbiased source and look at the numbers. Fact is Fox's view line up better with the majority of Americans'. That's why they are shellacking the other cable networks.

Mr. Obama and any other Dem that matters never miss a chance to take shots at Fox. Why is that? IMO they are angry the other side's message is getting out along with theirs

Is Fox critical of the Democratic leadership? Oh yeah... and rightfully so. Anyone who isn't is blind as a bat.

Good to see you posting again.

I've been good, haven't got to fish as much as I'd like but besides that I can't complain.

How have you been?


I'm not saying one news source is more balanced/better than the other, just trying to put an end to the myth that the Fox News of today is truly "Fair and Balanced".

The thing I've learned with most news being reported is that the truth usually lies somewhere in the middle and your best served to watch a few news programs and do a little digging of you own to get answers.

Now I do have some issues with what and how Fox reports every now and then. They seem to get behind some stories and run them for days/months that really aren't what they sell them as and then you get a 10 second apology or they just let it go with most viewers never getting the memo.

Also they use the words could, maybe, if........... a whole lot and that's when I change the channel.

I'm okay man. Still managing to hold down a job to support the fam and my fishing habit.

This has been one of the best fishing years ever for me. This spring was off the charts, and over the summer I've had some decent trips too. Fall is here and Dale Hollow is calling. Can't wait to get my strang stretched by a few of them nasty tempered brown girls.
