My grandmother was always mad about politics and Obama...just very angry. I found out that she had been sitting in front of Fox news all day. I blocked the channel. She is a much happier person now.
Look at you employing censorship! No wonder you like what Obama and company are doing.
Indeed, the cross section for MSNBC or CNN would mirror your analysis of FOX news, just switch conservative to liberal. All the digs on FOX apply to MSNBC and, to a lessor extent, CNN as well. The difference though is that FOX News and many of their fans like to actively deny that they are a Republican mouthpiece. Why not just admit it? Why not brand it "the voice of the conservative movement" or something? You don't see MSNBC so actively pretending to be something that they are not (fair and balanced).
Kind of hard for Fox News to be a "Republican mouthpiece" when there are this many non-Republicans on that station as hosts or frequent guests:
- Juan Williams
- Geraldo Rivera
- Susan Estrich
- Geraldine Ferraro
- Harold Ford Jr.
- Alan Colmes
- Lis Wiehl
- Bob Beckel
- Ellen Ratner
- Ellis Henican
- Mara Liasson
- Mort Kondracke
More proof that you and your ilk would rather restrict personal freedoms than face dissent.
I'll bet you're a big supporter of "net neutrality" and the "fairness doctrine."
Absolutely. I don't care whether she watches fox or the cartoon network...pretty much the same. I do care that she was angry all of the time. I have no idea where she gets her news now. She said that she is glad that she does not watch it anymore. She said that it is kind of addictive. However, since I pay the cable bill...my choice! You want her to watch Fox...you pay the cable bill! Friends don't let friends watch Fox.
For something to be "propaganda", it has to be false and misleading information. Reporting actual news and events, honestly and truthfully, is not propaganda.
I believe that Fox News (I just don't listen to the other networks anymore, or at least rarely) employs some of the most professional journalists, and has the most honest reporting of any other news organization you can name. Their people are second to none in the business.
Who can take someone like Chris Matthews seriously? He gets a "tingle" up his leg when he hears Obama speak?
And why do the others not report so many important stories? Where have they been in reporting on the numerous Marxist/socialists that are Obama's "czars", whom are advising him on polices that affect all Americans. When did we become a Marxist dictatorship? Why arent' these other news organizations asking questions?
If anything, it is the other so-called "news" organizations that are "not news". They are shills for the Obama White House. They are not worth listening to for five minutes.
They not Fox, represent a "propaganda machine".
According to liberals, anything not far left is "biased."
In the liberal's mind, when Fox runs news which mentions both a positive and negative story about Obama, it is "biased" for mentioning anything negative.
Because Fox News isn't ultra-left, to liberals it is "biased."

As for you paying for the cable, I agree, it's your service and you can dictate what it's used for, but that's not the point, nor is the reason you censored what your grandmother can watch. You're trying to justify your moral deficiencies, and frankly, it's pathetic.

If she wants an equal coverage of the news, she is missing out not watching Fox News:

My moral deficiencies?? I told you Fox makes people angry and mean. Maybe someone should block fox from your T.V. I have porn blocked out on my television as well so my children can not watch that.

Tell yourself whatever you like. Your words are posted and their meaning is clear.

That is profound. I never advocated suppressing speech only the fact that I don't have to listen to it or pay for it. In another great move of censorship, I will put you on ignore.
