Obviously many folks can't dissect fact from fiction, there should be a mandate for ALL media to report news as truthfully and unbiased as possible, it's called journalism integrity, what the hell happen to that? Spare me the tripe about the 1st amendment, the freedom of press shouldn't mean the freedom to lie, deceit, and distort.
There's nothing redeeming about MSNBC, MSNBC does not represent liberals and should be banned.

Notice how easily you can replace a few words and it still applies.

FOX "News" would be airing stories on alien abductions, etc. Problem is the National Inquirer always scoops them. So the target their stories toward the people that don't read ...... Anything!

So, because you're upset with Fox you want to ban it? What kind of freedom it that?

Get over it - you've obviously not ever watched MSNBC or CNN or read a newspaper if you think Fox is so bad.

What this is all about is pure jealousy because all the left winger liberal stations cannot compete with FOX News that smokes them in the ratings. What a bunch of cry babies.

Now that is just palin untrue. compare the ratings of all the other stations combined and then compare them to FOX, who has the ratings then? And before you say that is unfair, let me point out that most diehard righties watch FOX only or for the most part, where as most Lefties and Indes watch a wide range of stations. If there were more right leaning national news stations FOX would not get as much attention, but their aren't, I wonder why.

Fox News beats all the liberal cable news stations combined and the proof is easy to find. I see you are also another left winger obsessed with Palin. I am amazed at the power she has over left wingers.

Actually, I believe it is, "Journalistic", integrity.
