Can't take more than 15 minutes of watching Hannity. Big mouth, shouting and interrupting the guests constantly, thinks everything he says is 'law'. He needs to simmer down and act sensibly, if that is possible. His ego gets in the way of facts. Jerk.

Similar with Wallace ... he's right, the world is wrong.

This one is common sense, and (unlike the clock) is not a fluke.

I would be really curious to hear from Trump supporters on this. Even if you like him and support his agenda (your prerogative), how do you square this demonstration of his constant lying, changing the facts, and saying whatever he has to say at a given moment to make a point, even it it contradicts the point he made earlier?

Serious question, would love a serious answer. (Hint: If you just reply by insulting or bashing me, it's indicative that you don't have a reasonable response.)

FOX is much more fair and balanced than any of your DNC operative channels (most of the MSM).
FOX has Chris Wallace as their main Sunday talk show — he is a life long democrat and hates Trump.
Although he recently quit, Shepard Smith was for decades an openly gay prime daytime FOX news anchor who leaned far left.
The panels on FOX are much more evenly balanced and they don’t spew the hate, lies, and vulgarity like the DNC Operative media.
Hannity and a few of the opinion shows are definitely biased and unbalanced, but they don’t represent the totality of FOX.
Neil Cavuto is definitely one of my favorites. he always gives the left respect and plenty of time, and I believe he is an independent.
Martha MacCallum is very fair and balanced.
Tucker is definitely biased right, but he is the BEST out there if you want to hear facts and credible arguments to the left and right policies....

Also Fox News TELLS YOU witch shows are Conservative OPINION shows (Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham) and which are "news" shows, so they separate their bias, but still bring guests from the Left to articulate their position. They present both sides. Yes the host may be conservative, but you KNOW their bias.


Often CNN, NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, etc try top pass off Far Left Democrat Propaganda and "NEWS" as "FACT'. Very misleading and DISHONEST. It is 24/7 Trump hate.

These are not “newscasters.” They are opinion commentators.
Please show one lie, one fake news that these FOX commentators have recently been accurately accused of. Surely you’ve seen almost every week the left media has been found and proven guilty of fake news reports. I think it was NBC last week....
Please show us proof of FOX lying.....this is a DNC talking point.

Wow, all news is false if you don’t like the message and doesn’t conform to your opinion. If this were an outlier opinion it would be disturbing enough. But this is the norm for Trumpers. No wonder this country’s political process is in such pathetic shape.

I agree. I can’t stand Hannity. I couldn’t stand Bill O’Reilly either when he was on FOX.
I watch Tucker, Martha MacCallum , Steve Hilton, and occasionally Levin for opinions, and Cavuto and Bret Baer for news. Steve Hilton’s Next Revolution show on Sundays is really well done.
For learning the left and opposing side of things, I read Real Clear Politics which everyday has articles on both sides to each prevailing issue.

It must be tough to work at Fox News these days if you aren't a fawning Trump sycophant. It has truly become State News. For those independent journalists who want to report the facts, it has got to be rough going against marching orders.

Another correspondent, Catherine Herridge, who has been at Fox for 23 years, just left and went to CBS. I suspect there will be more defections as the election ramps up and more pressure is put on Fox employees to toe the line.

So you are admitting that you don't care what the news source is, you will blindly follow Trump no matter what ANYONE else says. Even the fake MSM argument you use isn't true. And since you refuse to watch even a Fox news clip about Trump, which is sympathetic to him, I'll summarize the whole 3:54 second clip for you.

The newscaster said the job of news is not to demonstrate loyalty to Trump but to broadcast news, no matter what it is. Trump flip flops and lies about many things and he listed numerous instances of it. So there is no fake news. Trump is just a liar and you admitted you don't care. You'll believe it anyway and ignore everyone else.

Trump can change his mind.. like I don't like Cavuto.. he is a total jerk.. What I believe is Mexico will pay for the wall indirectly when we stop giving them freebies that the democrats want to hand out to the millions of them here... that money saved will build that wall. When Trump does trade deals with Mexico, we will make more money to pay for that wall. So Mexico will pay for that wall. They will pay and pay and pay.



Trump can place tariffs on Mexico to pay for the wall. If he chooses. Trump has options.



Fact is I like Trump because he is not set in cement . He told us that he will look at different ways to get things done. If someone is in the way, he gets rid of them if they don't support him.. I like that. best president ever.



Worst offender is Chris Wallace. He puts words in peoples mouth.. he always says, then that is a yes.. before the person can even explain their stand on a topic. Sometimes MSNBC has some credible stories but never had one regarding Trump. It is all Bash Trump garbage. When they bash someone it is total propaganda. When they have no slant , no bias and just objective news it is real news. Cavuto has his opinion. That is all it is.
