kallend 2,174 #76 March 27, 2010 Quote Quote Quote >I think I'd like to see how the last two questions were phrased. "On another subject, here are some things people have said about President Obama. Please indicate for each whether you believe it is true or false." "He is a socialist He was not born in the United States and so is not eligible to be president He is doing many of the things that Hitler did He may be the Anti-Christ" Another interesting result: "These replies are also strongly correlated with education. The less education people have had the more likely they are to believe all of these statements." One reason, perhaps, that some republicans are anti-education; it costs them votes. It was also determined that the more people listen to radio and TV talk shows, the more likely they are to hold views on current affairs contrary to the facts. You are wrong. No, you are. Quote Fox News Rocks! Explains nicely why you are wrong.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sundevil777 102 #77 March 27, 2010 You're just showing your blind bias. No surprise, it drives libs nuts that they are so successful, and at the same time have been show to be the most accurate, fair and balanced. That's right, many studies have shown it. Honestly, do you partake of that which you condemn? Is it your opinion, or simply what you've been told to think of that which doesn't support the liberal mantra?People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucky... 0 #83 March 27, 2010 QuoteQuoteQuote Recent Harris poll of Republicans: 67% think he's a socialist 45% think he was not born in the US 38% think he is doing "many things Hitler did" 24% think Obama may literally be the Antichrist Maybe more intelligent debate and less crazy might sell a little better. are you asserting that ALL of those are not correct? I'd say 2 of 4. We've already discussed many times some of the socalist parts of his agenda. Last time I brought up the things he had in common with Hitler I was basically told "yeah, so what. STFU" He is doing many of the things Hitler is. And anyone who voted for him should not dispute that (with some qualifications). You're better educated than to just think all Hitler did was the bad things. Yes, I've heard that Hitler was kind to dogs. He also introduced a a very early recycling scheme..... gold from teeth, glasses, shoes, etc. Yea, up until he wantd to test the cianide out to make sure it would work, he tried it on his dog, Daisy.....it worked.

Lucky... 0 #92 March 27, 2010 Quote I find that they will often show their bias, but still come out more fair and balanced than the others. That actually sounds funny; they show bias, but then drop that and show more reverse bias in order to be more fairWTF . Bias measn they are leaning towrd one side of an issue, preseumably unfairly. SO if that's the case, then how do they end up more F & B? I mean, that expression is FOX's cliche. In order to appear to be objective, I think you have to start and finish that way, any straying from that creates a bias that is considered to be permanent. Quote I am quite able to spot the bias, and interpret the content accordingly. Yes, I am too, wheather the TV, in person, etc. I then take what they have to say with a grain and then try to salvage something from it, but once boas is shown, I really can't come back. I generally ignore most of what they have to say and rely on any data or other evidence they have. Quote Can you admit that the others often show their bias? I don't sense any measureable bias from ABC, NBC, CBS, but some from CNN and the likes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another pure example of why so many here find you so funny It seems a fair number of the posters in this thread think you are dodging the question. I don't see ABC, NBC or CBS as being biased, but I do understand the, "with us or against us" mentality of the right, uttered by the old fascist one: http://pachydermcoalition.com/ A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs, which must not be compromised to political expediency or simply to swell it's numbers.... And if there are those who cannot subscribe to these conservative principals, then let them go their own way. We get it: with us or against us. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See, you defend FOX, I defend none but understand the audience they cater to. I'm not saying FOX is anywhere near the other above sources I posted, but they lean rt and try to make you believe they are objectove; they are a bit right of center, just enough to detect but not so much as to make you vomit. Ultimately it's like Jesse Ventura says: The mainstream media isn;t left or right, they're a business and will report whatever sells advertising space via increased viewership.
