Of course, the libs don't know about that facet of their life. When one tells us that MSNBC and CNN carried the speech and howls about Fox not doing it tells me a lot.

I am waiting to see this week's Newsweek since Beck showed what he said was the copy. It appeared to the the stripes on an American flag with a very hopeful sounding bit about the fact that we are recovering so well now and then inside a page with the word HATE in large letters for their article about the right and how it is trying to hold Obama back.

They're showing good taste far as I'm concerned. B.O. tells an hr of lies, Beck tells an hr of truth. Something extremely lacking in the media nowadays.

Broadcasting that speech at the time he spoke it would catch most people in the situation so many say is the reason they don't watch Beck. That would be that they are on the road going home so can't really watch TV. As soon as THEY realize this they will be screaming that Fox should have broadcast it at another time so those commuters could see it. It is all just hate Fox poop and nothing else.

Also, if you watched him why did you do that when you wanted to hear the President?
it is possible to stay on topic? are you, too, trying to hijack this thread to "promote" your boy Beck?

Fox news is absolutely worthless and anyone who thinks otherwise deserves to be mislead by them and their lackies like Mr. Beck.
It doesn't matter if Fox shows him, he'll be on tv every day of the week for something else. He gives a speech every day on tv.

A) so
B) what?

you agree that Fox is not a news station. nobody said making money is bad....WHERE did that come from?.......they've gotta keep their sheep happy, of course.

Its not rocket science.
So, if they want to run a program spouting lies and misinformation and IGNORE a story that tells the truth or informs the people LIVE, it's a business decision? Gee, is everything about making a buck? And that doesn't bother you?

in addition to being off topic, you are clearly a very angry man who appears to hate our President. Sorry to break this to you, but if you really live in this country, he IS YOUR President.

Good. Because when your friends and acquaintances start disappearing you should be asking yourself one question. Will I be next?
