It is now very clear I have a problem. Did I sweat while trying to resist the urge of posting again, I will never tell. But I will tell you I have been overcome with a comforting sense of calm since my fingers have started working this keyboard again. I can now truly appreciate what junkies describe as "getting a fix".
Now, on to business... Quote:

2. All this garbage in response to my post: My favorite thing about Fox, though, is that it sends you guys (gals) into absolute conniption fits of pompous outrage, causing you basically to claim that Fox is mindwashing uninformed, stupid voters, and costing your obviously intellectually superior candidates elections. Rock on! And then further garbage to "look back at my posts." All I said is that Hannity is highly unprofessional and FOX is not fair and balanced. And I meant that I don't watch opinion shows much, which was mistakenly taken to think I never seen them which was clarified 9 TIMES NOW but you guys continue to state I haven't.

But, what was CHANGED or ADDED from your posts?
edit - all that was done was to quote what you had typed. You then deny ever typing it, then accuse people of changing what you typed.

Pardon me for the interruption, but wasn't the esteemed Rupert Murdoch (Fox News) the same one who started a news channel in the U.S. because he thought that Ted Turner's CNN was too liberal?
Granted, I only studied journalism for a year, but one of the first things that I learned was to not disclose any bias. The second thing that I learned was that no journalism is without bias. But crap, people, to claim that Fox news is not biased to the right is simply asinine. I understand the difference between news shows and commentary. Sometimes the line is a bit blurred. CNN is just as guilty, Lou Dobbs comes to mind. But, if you must get your news from the networks (actually, that doesn't work, since all they seem to talk about is American Idol or Survivor or the MJ trial) or cable, do yourselves a favor and watch Fox and CNN back to back. You'll find that the same stories are covered in completely different ways, and it's fun to try and find the truth between the two. And, if you want some actual BALANCE, watch News Hour (as someone else has said), or listen to NPR. But please, please, don't tell me that FOX is 'fair and balanced." Jim |

Al Jazeera can provide a quite different POV, as well. BBC trained, most of their people. Always good to be cogniscent of how other people and cultures look at certain events.
Unless you enjoy examining your own navel lint.

Actually, I quite like the BBC's website for news, now that you mention it (news.bbc.co.uk).
Fox was, after all, the subject of a Michael Moore style documentary about it bias - Outfoxed. Not that I've seen it, although I have watched enough Fox News to know that I didn't want to do it again (smarmy presenters, even for TV standards).

Wow! My original post was just to point out what an a**hole the kid was. Not a question of which news channel he was on.
But if he was on any other network , would that make him any less of a moron??

Nope, he'd still be a moron, but might have had more of a chance to explain himself. The optimist in me says nobody can be that much of a loser, and he must either have some better explanations, or be putting on a pretty elaborate hoax and have a great poker face.

In fact, I dare say that if he had the chance to explain himself, his hole would be much deeper. And I'd be one of the first to start shoveling dirt in to fill it up.
