On the other hand, most of the time if one needs to bring in a bloody-handed dictator in as a scare tactic, it's because you lost the argument already and have to resort to dramatic effect.

It's interesting how CNN, MSNBC, and the NYT seem to read from the same crib sheets most of the time. One might even think they were working in cooperation towards an agreed-upon goal.

You say this **** when a CNN producer has been caught admitting that their stories are "90% bull****?" When "bombshell" after "bombshell" on a completely made up attempt to oust a sitting president demonstrably turn to duds? When three CNN reporters had to resign for making up sources? When they continually refuse to even cover the fact that lead investigators on the Trump "collusion" case were openly texting, on government phones, about their attempts to oust the president? And on, and on?

You are brainwashed. And you only know what Pravda is because you heard it from Michael Savage.

By the way, this phony collusion story is directly sabotaging the true democrats in Russia, and it is shamefull. You and yours should be ashamed.

I am sure the supporters of Chavez said the same thing any time anybody tried to compare Chavez to Hitler.

Yeah, they did. Because Chavez is bad enough on his own where you don't need to invoke Hitler's name.

Fox News has invented an entire economic framework to push forth a libertarian agenda.
Fox News is anti-union and while it rarely mentions unions, it supports candidates who are anti union.
Every move that Fox makes is pro-corporate. It cleverly disguises the pro-corporate agenda by calling it conservative.

Fox News has been very successful in appealing to those who at one time made a good living with a HS degree but can't earn enough anymore. They've convinced the people who buy their line of garbage that the liberals and the unions are their enemies. These people who buy into this new line of crap from the new Pravda are not capable of understanding that there is noplace in the USA where they can compete one on one with the Chinese worker.
yes and no.

yes of course they are.

But no they are worse.

Pravda was enforced, Fox is the privately held entity run by an oligarch . Rupert is an evil man who has damaged the west more than Putin more than Trump. He has undermined democracy in a way that nobody thought was possible. He should be stripped of all assets and flung buck naked back to the aussies. Only problem they don't want him back.

On a daily basis, Fox News reaches about 3 million people. Less than 1% of the USA. That alone makes your argument moot. But.......

Here's a top tip: The legacy MSM, all if it, is irrelevant. I assume that you make this argument to justify your own reliance on the rest of it. How many times have you quoted CNN, WaPo, the NYT, etc as fact?

Please translate this into English. How does one 'satan' a network? What does that mean?
I also presume you meant to say bias. But if biase is a different word, please define it.
