Amazing to me that anyone defends ANY cable news channel as a source of credible information. All of it is propaganda, FOX included.

Because FOX doesn’t call people names, belittle them, ridicule them, obsesively attack powerful female conservatives from Alaska over the most thin allegations of made-up wrong doing. They are unlikable, shrill, pompous, arrogant, and wrong all the time. Only the few dozen people that watch them like them.

In the last month, three polls confirmed that America is a center-right country. (Gallup, WSJ/NBC News, and Carville and Greenburg’s DemocracyCorps.)

Gallup found that 40% of Americans are “very conservative” or “conservative”; 36% are moderates; and 21% are “liberal” or “very liberal”.

The WSJ/NBC News poll for January 2010 shows the country is 21% liberal, 38% moderate, and 34% conservative. These results are almost identical to polls from Jan 2006, Jan 2007, Jan 2008, and Jan 2009.

The DemocracyCorps poll showed likely voters are 17% liberal, 34% moderate, and 45% conservative. (People who don’t vote tend to be more liberal.)

So… those who say that America is a center-right country are right. Fox News Channel is a center-right cable news network, the others are not. So it should not be surprising that more people watch the FNC than CNN and MSNBC combined.

Those minorities on the left can defend the networks they watch, and perhaps there are enough of them to make CNN and MSNBC profitable even though the ratings are low. But Roger Ailes knows a little something about the American people; he was smart to hire Glenn Beck and CNN was stupid to let him go.

Monday Night O’Reilly had on:

Joe Klein of Time Mag

Juan Williams & Mary K.Ham.

Gavin Newsome YES! that Gavin Newsome!

Bernie Goldberg

And tonight starts a two-parter with Jon Stewart.

O’Reilly has the A-List.

Hannity, I can’t say I don’t watch.

Greta has had the Clintons, Bushes, Honduran President Roberto Micheletti etc.

Shep is pulling great numbers with a good show.

MSNBC started the same time as FNC, they use to pull some great numbers in their days. Imus, Jerry Nachman, Savage, Phil Donahue, Chris Jansing and others.

Now it just seems…..Iceberg? What Iceberg? I would give Olby some respect if he had just one opposing view once in a blue moon. There use to be a youtube clip of Olby interviewing Mitt Romney after a primary debate (it’s been taken down). Olby and Romney were respectful towards each other So, yes Keith you can do it if you want to.

Same thing with Mattthews, found this one with Beck.

Yes MSNBC it can happen! Just stop being what you are. A DNC infomercial.

I too, after the Scott Brown win, attempted to check in with the other cable news networks to see what they were saying. I could not handle it for long. How on earth does MSNBC think that Olberman or Maddow are watchable?

I don’t get this argument that because cable news isn’t watched like the Lifetime network or ABC primetime, that’s it’s somehow unimportant in the scale of things.

Cable news is 24 hour news coverage. In a world where newspapers and magazine are unfortunately folding up, and more people getting their info from the tube and the net, aren’t ratings for news channels significant?

Of the people who assiduously follow current events, most of them watch FNC.

Arguments that this is somehow insignificant are just the most low-rent sorts of polemics.

As a former ReCon Marine Officer (2.6 Tours in Nam ) and very successful business man at the highest level of the International end of the Furniture Business .
I have leaned more coming from Glenn Beck in the last year … About the left with proven cold facts .. The History of Marxism , Communism ,Fascism , Progressivism and its evil … Their top players and leaders than in my long life before Beck.
Since I am by Nature a Fact man without Emotions and Feeling ….. I believe no one until the facts are proven to me ,
To Date Beck has yet to lie over a real important issue or History .
He showed us Obama Tree and limbs and the Anti Americans , Communist and radical Socialist in his Cabinet and Czars ..
He outed Van Jones Communism .
None of the other nets works did 1 % of what did ….. which is what Journalist used to be about before it turned left of left .
Beck is a breath of fresh air !!!!!!!

MSNBC and CNN both make their big mistakes by constantly spewing left wing hatred and lies and having NO balance at all. You never see guests with views that are in conflict with the hosts view. It’s just a pure string of hate and lies. What a joke! By contrast Fox has balance and even the most opinionated hosts have guests on that present the other side. Viewers are left to decide, not clubbed over the head and preached at like at CNN and MSNBC.

MSNBC in particular has dropped so low that Olbermann should just go over to Maddow’s house and the two of them can sit there and spew hatred together. They can invite their two viewers to the party too. Why waste the energy on studio lights and cameras when NOBODY watches them! LOL!!!!!

This is a perfect reason MSNBC is dead in the water . They twist the truth into a complete lie .

Rachel Maddow said that the Honduras was kicked out by the Military . LIE !

She did not say he was a Communist , tried to change the Constitution in the middle of the night to give himself Presidency FOR LIFE like Hugo Chevez his best friend and Castro .
The Supreme court ruled against him as did their Congress there … None of this was in her Comments .
She lastly said since of Obama supported the Thug Marxist to stay in power Jim Demint of SC should be tried for “”Treason “” ?
In the last election a week ago … The communist Thug got whipped badly not Obama has egg on his face as does the media that didn’t report the Win for Democracy there !

Why did Democracy Win there ? Hugo Chevez and Venzulla is next door and they did the Dictator at work there and his thugs as well …… Enough said !

As experience has shown, if you want to watch news that is completely biased towards Barry barack and his cohorts, you watch NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC or CNN. If you want to watch news that is biased towards the truth, then you watch FOX. It’s funny how many people in the media demean FOX News. It’s as if they cannot or will not accept the truth and I don’t mean the truth as they, in their “elite” minds, believe it.
Barry Barack and his minions are bankrupting this country and the talking heads of the “major” networks ignore that fact. They blame the rich, the banks, and Bush while they can’t get anything meaningful accomplished, yet they are in the majority.
Barry Barack hires or appoints liars, cheats, and progressives that tout the wonderfulness of Chairman Mao, Che, Chavez, Fidel, and Stalin. Barry Barack hangs Christmas ornaments on his tree with the image of Chairman Mao (truly one of the most significant religious figures of our time!) and the talking heads of the “major” networks completely ignore this little tidbit.
Barry Barack aligns himself with SEIU who wants the world to organize itself into their labor union and the talking heads of the “major” networks see nothing wrong with this.
Barry Barack wants a new constitution because the one that has worked since the founding of this country and it’s government constricts his powers, and the talking heads of the “major”networks all think this is a grand idea.
When Barry Barack and his minions (Pelosi and Reid for a couple) run out of arguments to counter those that speak against him, then everyone that falls into that “anti-Barack proposal” category are then labeled racists.
Quite a tactic to advance legislation.
One day Barry barack will have to go before the people and explain how his “spend all the present taxpayers’ money” and all the money of future taxpayers for generations and generations to come is helping the United States.
The United Socialist States of America, the dream of Barry Barack, is now owned by, not the citizens of this country, but by China, Japan, and numerous other countries. The United Socialist States of America is so far in debt that it can never be repaid, and what do the talking heads of the “major” networks talk about: a tell all book about John, the scum, Edwards, the movie Avatar and how everything can be blamed on Bush.
Thank you FOX News. At least there are people that will speak to the truth.

The reason why I watch Fox and none of the others is simple: If Newt Gingrich robs a bank. I will hear about it there and it will be covered. If Barak Obama shows up at a gala event with a lampshade on his head and a Hitler moustache, I’ll hear about that too. The other networks simply dont cover news stories they dont happen to feel like covering. That is their problem. They arent news organizatons, they are mickey mouse fan clubs for the left. Anyone who cant stand to have their own side criticised, will love the Mickey mouse club. I prefer to have the grown ups bring me the news. I have never seen Fox cover up a story like I have the others. They do tell you everything.

I always find it amusing that liberals decry Fox News as being biased, when I COULD know all of their points and the conservative points by exclusively watching Fox.

I could argue the liberal side of things as good as many of the better liberal spokespeople; yet, when you talk to anyone whose sole source of information is one of those other networks, they are simply not even aware of some of the major issues, let alone the finer points of those issues.

Now, I gain my information from a wide variety of sources, but EVERY point the left wing media makes can be found on Fox News. The same cannot be said for the other networks.

Obama propagandists are truly unbelievable.

They want the American People to believe Fox News is bias and the voters in Massachusetts voted for a Conservative Republican who ran against the Obama health care reform plan because the voters secretly hated George Bush and the same voters secretly loved the Obama health care plan.

Clearly this treating US voters as stupid cattle to be led around by lies is not working out so well for Obama, MSNBC, CNN or the Democrats.

Next brilliant moves: Have Obama push hard for recruiting gays into the military, because Obama feels the American peoples pains and knows more gays in the military is one of voters highest priorities, while at the same time have Obama claim he is against deficit spending.

Those stupid American voters will believe any lie Obama tells them, right ???

This should not shock anyone. When you show BOTH sides of the news as opposed to just the liberal-left view point, this is how your ratings will look. Of course, ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC (the National Barack Channel) will never get the message, no matter how far down their ratings go. One can only wonder how long before the stock holders of these companies will let the ratings continue to slip before they speak up? And no liberals, Fox is not a conservative network. It is “fair and balanced” just as they say. While I am conservative, I have friends of all political views. My liberal friends and family even admit they watch Fox to get both views of the story. Congratulations to the Fox News Channel!

thinkbot

Cannot understand how you keep putting out these silly comments. If you don’t like Fox News don’t watch it. But if you comment on it don’t try to have us drink your kool-aid. Look at the statistics, Fox is killing all the other cable programs. Despite your silly comments, a large percentage of watchers in the Fox audience are Democracts, unlike CNN and MSNBC whose audience is one directional only – leftist. You point to BBC, which has an audience of less than CNN or MSNBC in the U.S. and is known as one of the most biased news organizations in the world. Just look at their pitiful coverage of the Climategate controversy in their own backyard. “Thinkbot”, either accept that Fox News is better or just change the channel.

I consider all the Democrats (demoncats) politicians (save Kucinich) traitors that, if we can manage to restore the constitution and the republic, belong in jail for the rest of their lives if they went along with Odrama.

The Demoncats have continued bankrupting this country, you are using Cloward Piven and this garbage health care, cap and trade and other centralized controls based on falsehoods and identity politics and committing deliberate malfeasance to destroy America. The demoncats are profligate spenders and liars, the demoncats have many wars open, the demoncats spend when the USA is broke and the demoncats are traitors. The demoncats will be put into jail one day for their high crimes against America.

This is the worst more cynical bunch of traitor liar criminals I have ever seen in Washington, and I can’t even begin to imagine what demoncat scum think their children and grand children will inherit. By the actions of the Demoncats, they will inherit a weak, broke in debt authoritarian police state with foreign and oligarchical interests controlling our lives from cradle to grave.

The demoncats are against freedom, liberty and the constitution and they are all tyrants yet they can’t even see themselves for the tyrants they are because they all have a mental disorder, liberalism is a mental disorder, that much becomes clear since Obama and the demoncats have been Cloward Pivening America to construct it claiming a utopian ideal as a model but instead are managing to implement INGSOC.

It is WE THE PEOPLE that will end up having the demoncat corrupt profligate bankrupting counterfeiting currency defacing traitors in jail.

Charles Schumer. Chris Dodd. Barney Frank. Harry Reid. Nancy Pelosi. Barak Obama, Ben Nelson, Max Baucus, Diane Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, Goldman Sachs, Ben Bernanke – all of these scum traitors and companies will be held to account.

This criminal Obama and all the demoncat thugs in Washington are using stimulus money to vastly expand government payrolls and using the stimulus as war chest of political money to manipulate politics and the electorate.

The corruption going on now is inconceivable, and Russia, India and China are going to devour what’s left of America because of the demoncat arrogant traitors, THE DEMONCATS are the enemy within and must be stopped. The price is FREEDOM.

The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money

Try watching BBC, that’s more like ‘real’ news. When Fox is in the tank for the Republicans, and NBC/ABC/CNN are in the tank for the Democrats, you need to look elsewhere, where politics hasn’t crept in. They work in unison (for corporate interests) to split the American people and prevent any type of change in the status quo.

Who do you think pays for all those ads ? Financial industry, drug/healthcare industry, car industry, etc. Nothing but interest groups who are looking for the government to write the rules so that they can make more money. So they pay the media industry by running commercials. In turn, they media spins programming to whip up the people and divide them, and then nothing gets done. HOORAY! Look at how well the healthcare industry was able to prevent any substantive changes in healthcare reform. Deadlocked. They’re the big winners. Just think about how many Prilosec commercials you’ve seen tonight?

For those of you that think that Fox doesn’t report the news, please explain to everyone here why you think that is. What makes everyone else so much better in your opinion? Is it because the other networks have less commentary? Do you not like the editorialization type format of some of the segments? Is it because you don’t like the news casting or the commentators? Just because there’s no Fox Headline News doesn’t mean there’s no news there. There is bias everywhere you look.

If you people are really ignorant enough to believe that Fox News is the “Balaced Network” then you need a big reality check. Fox News consistently lies and makes false accusations about major topics. They bring on individuals to debate and then cut their mic when the person states their point of view. How is that balanced? Look at some of the articles I have posted below. People who watch Fox News make me sick.

The other day after the Scott Brown win, I had to indulge myself in a little schadenfreud by watching Olberwindbag and Madcow. As TR would have said: DEEE-LICIOUS.

By the way, when are they going to seat Brown? Hint: ask Imadinnerjacket.
