Look, no president in the history of this republic has less reason to complain about mistreatment in the press than Barack Obama. Liberals have academia, they have mainstream media, they have Hollywood. They’re all for diversity in everything but thought. And out here is this, this one channel, Fox, and they’re all up in arms because, in the words of Miss Dunn of the White House, “It is opinion journalism masquerading as news” which some of us would say describes the New York Times and certainly MSNBC.

Sheesh. I’m a J major, but also jobless because we know where print journalism is going. Has gone. But I still have my brains. I think all the anchors need to ask the followup questions and not end with “we have to leave it there.” Jon Stewart noticed that even, & that’s why he might be the best newsman out there & he’s a comedian. I have a hard time watching FOX for very long because they wouldn’t know one true fact if it jumped up & bit them on the ass. Really. Oh yeah, news is what the editor says it is.

FOX “NEWS” made up the whole “denied access” story. Its more fake news from faux news.

There are three “Fox Fanatics” where I worked who insist the TV in the break-room must ALWAYS be tuned to Fox. Any attempts to watch others channels; not just other news channels, but ANY other channels is met with the gnashing of teeth and rending of clothing.
The usual squall is always how everyone else fears “THE TRUTH” and is trying “SUPPRESS THEIR FREEDOM”!

It is the most fascinating PSYCHOSIS I’ve ever seen.

Then I remember Fox Fanatics also believe Terri Schiavo was a chained ballerina and Nuclear Bombs aren’t used enough.

So all you FF’ers here, which world wide conspiracy of Nations do you believe hid Saddam’s Nukes?

50. The Chemist Says: “So… yes?”

If you say so.

“I’m sick and tired of Libertarians inserting themselves into every thread and comments section as soon as they can finagle a segue into Their Favorite Subject (TM). I don’t care if you’re a Libertarian and you just state it as a point of fact, but the details of your philosophy is not relevant in 99.9% of the threads I see it come up in.”

1) I believe this is the second time in four years on this blog that I’ve mentioned my political affiliation.

2) I hope you are as vocal and insistent about relavance when the “big L” is “Liberal.”

The only Fox channel that says the truth is Fox Sports, I think
