I personally don't even watch any of the primary American news channels. I actually watch the American version of Al-Jazeera. They cover more international then domestic which interests me personally.

I don't have a "side" so, like I said, unless you know intent, you couldn't be more wrong. You only assume to know because that's how you are.

I wish folks could take a step back and see how absurd and pointless this argument looks. Cable news is a joke - all around. Keep fighting over left and right so you don't see that it's really us and them. The plan is working perfectly.

Most of them don't know the difference between news and opinion.

I live close enough to the Canadian border that I watch that ( Canadian local and national in British Columbia), BBC ( regular) , Al Jazeera , even the subtitled South Korean news . No endless fighting and analysts . Jeez I cannot take anymore endless analyzing . My husband is European anyway and we live there some of the time so I live on more of an international scale . Besides I see THE NEWS no more, no less, like Walter Cronkite did . No ones opinion of what they just read and no wannabe actors masquerading as newscasters .

In Canada, Fox news has been required to register as "Entertainment " instead of news when they were applying for their equivalent of their FCC license there . They are a joke .

Cooper began his career as a freelance journalist working out of south east Asia. After sneaking into Myanmar he was able to sell pieces to Channel One. He then went on to cover stories in Somalia, Bosnia and Rwanda. Finally in 1995 Cooper got a job with ABC eventually rising to co-anchor of their overnight news program World News Now.

So, yes, being the son of Gloria Vanderbilt was soooo instrumental in his career!

You don't have a side... so, you're uh... one dimensional?

Thanks for posting it. I am sick to death of anyone who uses the words "faux news". they sound very silly. No, it isnt funny. Come up with some other way to insult what you dont like.
I wish the people in charge of the censorship filters on CD would include 'faux', due to its overuse in trying to denigrate people they disagree with.

I am not going to read past this post that I have quoted, at this point because it is a waste of my time.

All news has a bias. By far most news reporting in the West is highly biased to liberal viewpoints...conservatives can easily see it. Now there comes one network that is biased to the conservative viewpoint and Liberals can see it. Fox News is entertainment and they are crushing all other news/entertainment networks...the joke is on you as they are winning and the score is like 100-10.
