I could care less about what most Americans think of Fox News...but the fact that President Obama and his thug administration are so angered by it, speaks volumes to his character, or lack thereof.

Oh, and they don't have a proven record of lying, and defending their right to lie in court.
Isn't it sheer hypocrisy to claim that Fox lies but that MSNBC tells the truth?

the hilariously-named ceasespin.org fails to tell you that this ruling involved a local fox affiliate station in tampa, FL, not the FOX NEWS so feared, despised, and babbled about endlessly by liberals nationwide.

Not sure that you know what the word hypocrisy means. I don't run a news network. However, I am admittedly biased myself. MSNBC's reporting is much more truthful and honest than Fox's reporting. I watch both networks, and agree with MSNBC's commentary 10x more than Fox's. Fox has a proven and long record of bending the truth and outright dishonesty. I haven't seen that on MSNBC. You're welcome to show otherwise.

And for the record, I can't stand Olbermann most of the time.

Well, for one thing, can you find a video or news article on MSNBC or CNN that's gotten pounded for being inaccurate at least?

To my memory, FOX has been pounded four or five times on this forum for their inaccuracies, distortions and invented "news".

First you admit that you're biased and then define truth and honesty in terms of who you agree with more often. Strange.

Anyway, we certainly agree about Olbermann

Fox news is not fair and balanced. Neither is any other news station or network out there.

The only reason Fox gets hammered so mercilessly by liberals is because all of the other stations are clearly slanted to the the left. Fox stands out like a sore thumb. For many of them, they are flat out angry that Fox isn't also biased to the left. If Fox were left leaning like MSNBC, CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, NPR, etc., you would never hear them complain at all. I mean, how many times do they complain about the left leaning networks? Extremely rare, usually its only if it is one of the token conservative reporters making a comment that the left says anything.

Choosing not to watch FOX NEWS is the way this Obama loving, pro- choice, pro-equality, gay lovin, whiney Liberal avoids having her ears subjected to the spin and hatred spread on Fox news. It used to be entertaining when Bush was in office to see how they would spin things but now it's just sad.
