Is there a "spin" coming from Al Jezeera America? It seems to have a lot of good international stories - like hour long segments on non-political issues that don't appear to be promoting an agenda.
But how about when it comes to reporting on American politics? Anyone got info on Al Jezeera America? Are they slanting it a certain way?
I know the American version of AL Jazeera is different than the other versions and the station is newish (launched August 2013). They hired a lot of news people that were previously on other American networks. One of their slogans is "Fact Based News"
I watched Chris Wallace interview Bret Baier after the debate, and Baier stated, "We asked every question that we thought was important".
My question is, important to who?
Not one question, or mention of veterans, and the terrible treatment they are getting.
The only reason it was not brought up is because that particular subject is a win for Trump.
I don't believe the other candidates have even mention vets in their campaign.
"Fair and balanced, my ass.
Bob.
I think FOX quit using that slogan. Seems it was garnering way too much ridicule.

The questions don't matter. All Trump needs to do is call everyone names and his following will increase. Here's his campaign in a nutshell:
"A is a moron"
"B is a idiot"
"I don't like C"
"D is stupid"
Faux news is especially bad at throwing Obama under the bus constantly. Democrats on that station are just puppets. They know they're place and don't step on toes.
I did not realize that MSNBC (faux news) throws Obama under the bus. Maybe I should contact that station and tell them to stop it!
As for Fox News, do you actually watch that station? The Democrats on that station debate very intensely. The reason they may seem like "puppets" is because they are wrong so often!

I watched some of it when my parents had Direct, since getting cable again because both satellite companies are nuts, we don't get it through Cox as far as I know. I saw it mainly because they had the old CNN Money anchor that I liked, Ali Velshi. I don't exactly miss it with me not having it. It could be good but don't have the penetration to really be good. Plus then you add in the fact that Fox, CNN and MSNBC ate political news similar to ESPN owning most of the sports viewership squashing CBS, NBC and FOX Sports networks.
