Not too long ago ALL the news services fell for a story about Jenkum and how it was the new drug of choice for the youths in America, thing was, it was a fake story that none of them thought necessary to confirm.

If you don't know what Jenkum is, Google it, keep your barf bag handy.

But, according to you, it was never said it was the dog's own private jet...oh, 'scuse me, the headline used the word 'plane', not 'jet'.

But, let's not split hairs...LOL

I agree. It is so comic and partisan that it is insulting to anyone with more than a few neurons fused together with one spirochete.

EVERYONE realizes that ANY news outlet is going to have partisan views. However, the blind acceptance of the left of MSNBC partisan propaganda is shocking and reveals a dissociation between objectivity and simply acceptance of partisan propaganda. The left, however, has been conditioned to believe that blind acceptance of this pablum is "progressive" and "enlightened", despite the lack of scrutiny and objective evaluation of the material persented.

MSNBC is the new Pravda.

No, not everyone is watching it. Fox News doesn't have a majority of the viewers. They only have a very slim majority among cable news networks, and some of those I'm sure are liberals. When you count ALL news sources most people go to the liberal ones.

Besides, if everybody is watching Fox then how the hell did the "mainstream" media get Obama elected?

If most people are watching the liberal stations (which they are not) why is Fox number one?

Fox news has about 1.16M viewers. Meanwhile over at the "mainstream media" (as if Fox isn't) 5.8M watch CBS, 7.3M watch ABC, and 8M watch NBC
