He would change FNC to a liberal propaganda machine in a heartbeat if there was more money in it for him. He could care less.

I absolutely agree with you. Fox is the way it is because it earns Rupert millions. He couldn't give a flying fig about what Hannity and co think.
Love your posts Ozzie.

It is so sad that in Todays America, Hatred, Bigotry, sex, violence and a unquenchable desire to be sensational pays the bills. Common sense is only in vogue when it benefits the wealthy.

There you go again ELOrocks posting facts and figures only to be questioned as to the validity of your numbers. You can never win with these people so stop trying. They are elitists who "ALWAYS" think they are more intelligent and correct. Stop wasting your typing. The reality is in 3 1/2 years when this country is on the brink of disaster and bankruptcy (don't worry your kids and grandchildren will pay for YEARS to come) these same people will point to "failed Bush policies" and strip the annointed one of any blame. Unfortunately there is a "middle" in this country that I have to believe will not be so easily fooled. Out of the fringe I expect it and refuse to debate because I am just wasting my own precious time, but the middle, they are the hope for calling it as they see it. If not, we are doomed but more importantly, we will be gone, say prayers for your children and grandchildren.

Default A Media Out Of Control !!!

There was a time when the media had journalistic "integrity" and didn't believe everything they were told. Now they "BOW" to him (literally in Brian Williams' case)
Greeting's,

There is a great deal of wisdom in SgtAJC's Thread !

Unfortunately the American People are currently experiencing a similiar situation that those of us who served during the Viet Nam War regarding
the idiotic liberal press experienced.

Many of the fellow soldiers who served with me at that time would frequently state: There is "Too Much Freedom Of The Press"!
Many of you well remember the extreme "Postulated" content of the vast majority of their reporting during this tramatic time !

I believe this most certainy applies during this current juncture in U.S. History. It appears that the press of today definitely has distorted & abused it's vitally important role of reporting all the news, without bias, to the American People.

I watch Fox News for this very reason.
I too became totally disgusted with only receiving one aspect of a news story that a particular media conglomerate wanted me to know about. While of course disregarding the other part of the story.

I fear friends that the media of today has truly exceeded it's time honored function as the friend of America's citizens and had grossly developed into a most insidious traitor in whom it can be rightly stated : As a Press " With Entirely Too Much Freedom" and as such is doing much more harm than good on the world scene.

The American People Deserve Much, Much Better.

Thank You L. F.

Not only Obama, the loony left is positively unhinged. It is so funny they control every organ of media except AM radio and Fox. It gives them fits, it is so funny to watch.

I think Obama is dreaming about Fox News and maybe is hoping that one day he will be the owner of Fox News.
What a worthwhile and thought provoking thread, thank you.
