"Reporters are just getting so itchy to just pull the trigger."

1. Irresponsible to call the winner eh? Like Florida 2000 huh?

Hypocritical lying motherf*****s...

[Apollo11]

2. To be fair - FOX didn't call Florida until after everyone was done voting.

I would also like to say that blaming FOX News for what happened in Florida is unfair.

Let's not forget to also blame Katherine Harris, Teresa LaPore and Sandra Day O'Connor.

And Joe Lieberman - who wanted to count late and undated postal votes from US military bases.

3. Really? Oh well okay, stand corrected...

...but having Fox talk about media responsibility is still rich!

12. Well, Bush's cousin John Ellis was the one who made the call at FNC

Their association strongly suggests a conflict of interest.

I don't want to absolve the other folks, I'm just saying I think FNC belongs on the list.

4. Well, the voters called the winner 2 months ago or so

The only thing that remains is to find out by how much he wins.

[Apollo11]

5. Where does anyone get the idea that some Obama supporters are arrogant?

It's a mystery! :eyes:

[dbmk]

8. Arrogant?

I sat down with a spreadsheet, the polls, all the information I could dig up on add-on superdelegates and the general trends and came to that conclusion. And was applying a decent error margin in Hillarys favour.

I wasn't applying disrespect to those calculations. It was a purely logical conclusion. And as far as I remember I was not alone in coming to that conclusion.

16. Hey...remember...

.... like they said on Fox News,

ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!


Y'know, like 2+2 will equal 5

Just be sure to mention Rev. Wright ...twice... and plane crashes...

[smoogatz]

10. Hillary lost on super Tuesday

by failing to score the blowout victory she needed. She hasn't picked up significant ground since then in terms of the delegate count, and now has no remaining opportunity to do so. So yeah, it was pretty much over two months ago.

6. I had to turn it off when cal got on there;

I hate faux and I hate cal and the combination of the two of them was more than my strong stomach could take.

[Apollo11]

7. Whatever

Thanks for the kick!

:kick:

[smoogatz]

9. Why is Faux Nooze trying to prop up the rotting corpse of Hillary's candidacy?

Hmmm. Go figure...

[indimuse]

15. YOur guy is UNELECTABLEIN THE GE!

[smoogatz]

18. If that was the rightwing consensus, they'd be rooting for him to win

the primary. They're not—they're rooting for Hillary. Why?

[AlbertCat]

19. For Hillary to win....

.....she's gonna have to get way more contorted than your pic. Maybe she can get FL's republican votes to count for her?...or something....

[Hyper_Eye]

11. I can't wait until this is over so that Fox News can stop being used here...

...for supporting arguments. The whole network makes me sick. Hurry up and get back to normal DU! I can't take it anymore!

[evolvingsteve]

13. yea, uh...

have to call BS, who the hell defends FOX News anyway, I don't care what the logic is....they have done more bad than good on ALL fronts.
FOX news can suck an egg, they are biased and unbalanced and only want to see the Democratic party continue to battle this out so Mccain can win...

:eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :hippie:

[indimuse]

14. K&R!

They all forget 2000

[underpants]

17. The point about the media taking themselves too seriously is followed by an ED Hill question

referencing the "Wright scandal"

theater of the absurd.

Isn't that Cal guy actually dead?

citizenjanepolitics.com ??? where are they getting these people now?

[mcollier]

20. Fox News is a detriment to our country

pay no attention to those hipocrites...

[eagertolearn]

21. It was the news media that made Hillary look like she was neck to neck

with Obama after the PA and IN primaries. Now all her supporters in W.V. are wondering what happened. It was the news media on Hillary's side that fooled them! Those of us who knew the numbers knew the truth. Again Hillary was fooling her followers.
