It cannot be helped that one poster noticed another poster's awkwardness with not only this thread, but the truth.

Not sure if troll or very hardcore conservative.
Fox news is thinking of Madison Wisconsin in February: [img]http://www.pensitoreview.com/Wordpress/wp-content/themes/mimbo2.2/images/screenshot-fox-wisconsin-palm-trees.jpg[/img] What Madison Wisconsin usually looks like in February: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3664177/madison-wi012.jpg[/img] So to correct them, we did this: [img]http://images1.dailykos.com/i/user/191280/oreillyvindicated.jpg[/img] As you can see they are hardly "unbiased"
And holding FOX news as the 'White Knight' in reporting stuff. You got to be smoking some crack if you believe this.

Sadly this breed of beast is growing more powerful here in the US. I may have to move if it gets any worse.
[QUOTE=OvB;30271793]I agree that fox is not [i]always[/i] wrong and that they probably get more flak than they deserve, but they are hardly anything to be taken serious all the time. I suggest to all of you that you do what I do. Watch them all when things happen to get a well rounded idea of the story, then figure out your own opinion.[/QUOTE] I was at the gym yesterday and they had it on the TV in the lobby area.

Turns out, that didn't happen. Mike Tobin, reporting from amid the massive demonstration on Friday, claimed that one of the protesters "punched" him in the arm. In another broadcast, he claimed a man threatened to break his neck. In both cases, supporting evidence for these claims was not broadcast -- yet still, Tobin's reports have been widely cited across conservative blogs that seem eager to depict union workers as hateful and violent. What's worse, Tobin's allegation that he was assaulted might have slipped past without rebuttal were it not for a camera-equipped bystander, who captured the scene. Turns out, someone merely touched his shoulder, as evidenced in the video below. The incident he claimed was a "punch" could instead be described as a pat, at most. That was apparently enough for him to later declare that even after being "punched, he was just too nice of a guy to press charges. Fox News reporters have been repeatedly shouted down by union protesters, many of whom simply chant "Fox News lies!" every time the network's cameras set up for a live shot. That repeated reaction led Tobin to complain how there was "hate in their eyes" during the confrontations, leading him to assume that protesters must simply hate reporters and the media in general, or that they're intolerant of alternative viewpoints. He didn't seem to consider their actual allegation: that Fox News "lies." The channel's woeful track record for distorting the news aside, if Tobin was seriously asking why protesters object to Fox News, then he must not watch Fox & Friends. Last week the hosts of the network's morning show literally flipped the results of a Gallup poll showing strong support for unions, relaying it to their viewers as the opposite. As far as we can tell, protesters have not engaged in shouting down reporters for any other networks.[/quote] Another fun read: [url]http://www.spitefulcritic.com/home/10-most-ridiculous-fox-news-lies-creative-edits-and-half-truths[/url]

That's why the general fox viewer base is retarded. They watch fox and only fox, and get tube fed bullshit on a daily basis. If you want to keep an unbiased and open mind then you have to watch a little bullshit every now and then. It's good to know what everyone is thinking.
