I readily admit that pundits like Hannity, Limbaugh and Beck have a predisposed position on political issues, as do your heroes.

Honesty and fair play exists on TV, a little bit. But your posting indicates that you have yet to find it.
Give some links that prove they've been dishonest.

Meanwhile this thread is about one of the Faux heroes being caught in a big fat LIE.

A lie that Faux knew would go unnoticed by its poor blind faithful.

And now those PBF are DEFENDING the lie!!!!!

Actually, the thread is about Jon Stewart being a phony, because he is selective in his criticism, as are the others listed in my response to your posting.

And selectivity can be (and in their case, is) a form of dishonesty.

So you are going to spend the whole day shoveling? Sh** in the morning and snow in the afternoon? Don't hurt your back. Sounds like it's a little weak already.

Lol. Look through this thread, there are posts with links about him taking out after Obama too. Olbermann and Maddow do the same. All you have to do is step outside the bubble....

If you cant find any links that show he's been dishonest, what are you attacking -- and what are you defending?

Finally, something original.

Really nailed me there.

Tell you what: take a walk down to Powell's. Steal a copy of The Color Purple or somethng.

Uh huh, I'd like to take a count of the number of hours spent going after the various parties. Think it would look pretty fair and balanced?

Save your ink, the clown doesn't even pretend to be objective. When he goes after Obama and Biden like he went after Bush and Cheney, I'll be more impressed (not just an occasional clip).

I find it funny that someone actually thinks they are fair and objective. Why don't you just say "I have a specific point of view, and like them because they reinforce my predisposed political sentiments".
