2. Yeeks!
I never go to the site (because I hate the channel so much)...amazing what they report as "fair and balanced"...

I use "My Yahoo" as a start page...I just added the category "Most viewed news stories"...kind of an eye opener too (currently some guy that awakes from a coma)

3. I checked in with FOx last night: an OBSERVATION
I believe their coverage from what I'v seen is slanted toward veiled racism. I think they know a signficant part of their audience are unreconstructed white supremacists...and the way they covered the war in Congo, comments of Chicago Cubs coach, murder of the Brothers family in Cali...on and on and on....I get the sense they are always pandering to the feeling that the African Americans in this country are getting a free pass and we should stop it.

Of course, this is fed by stupid statements like Bush saying America's slaves set America free--WTF?! their friend of the court brief asking for total overturning of affirmative action at Michigan.

Democrats and independent enlightened people should inform AMericans that FOx is not only an unapologetic mouthpiece for Dubya AWO..but also racist.
