10. Too Far
Fox News, and I may be scorned for this comment, presents a much more balanced opinion of what is really going on. I started watching a month ago after CNN pissed me off. I was really surprised because I vowed never to watch that network. I can't stand Hannity ans O'Reilly but most of the time they report the news just like they say Fair and Balanced. They talk about all the bad that is going on in Iraq but they also report some of the good.... and yes there is some good going on over there... just not enough.

12. Yeah, and I'm Mary; Queen of Scots
Edited on Tue Apr-04-06 04:30 PM by Touchdown
Everything is spun so it's teh Democrat's fault. Plane crash in Oregon? Tom Daschle is to blame.

Get real!:eyes:

BTW: "Fair and balanced" has no place in news reporting. Accuracy and complete presentation of facts is all that's required. There are not two sides to every event, not two sides to every story. There are the facts, and there is Truthiness.

13. "Everyone's entitled to their own opinion,...
...not their own facts." For you to register on this website and have that defense of Fox's "balance" as your first post seems to indicate your thinking is not in the broad DU spectrum.

19. Hah!
There is nothing balanced about Faux News. Watch the little nuances of their reports. Behind the flashy graphics and the bigoted hosts catering to the lowest common denominator, there's nothing but bias.

I don't want the personal views of the journalists in my news. I don't want news that only defends our leadership and tries to justify wars we never should've been involved in. I don't even want news that tells me how fantastic our economy is while the soup kitchen lines continue to grow.

I want the straight facts. Let me make my own opinions.

16. On pic number two: "We now break to a live report from the rescue
ship's doctor, Dr. Bill Frist . . . Dr. Frist, what's the situation there?"

Frist: "Hey, it's not as bad as those liberal networks are claiming. We've only had one fatality, and that was from a bad omelette . . ."

22 BBY: Senator Binks (R-Naboo) votes emergency powers to president to combat separatist threat
19 BBY: President Palpatine declares martial law in the interest of galactic security
19 BBY: Left-wing Jedi extremists executed for treason in aftermath of assassination attempt on president
0 BBY: VP Vader slays Jedi terrorist in self-defense
0 BBY: Empire launches pre-emptive strike on Alderrann
0 BBY: Empire under attack: Rebels destroy Death Star in an apparent terrorist attack on our galaxy
3 ABY: Empire brings democracy to Cloud City
4 ABY: VP Vader betrays Empire, assassinates President Palpatine
