Yeah Sunny, Fox is slanted to the right, and most others are slanted to the left. That kinda balances things out don't it? ...Ron

Fair and balanced is what they claim I believe, and I was kinda messing with Lonnie a little bit. However I see the mainstream news media with a left slant, and I will admit that Fox leans a little right, imho....Ron

Even if I felt that Palin were qualified, she is so far right it's scary.

And we all know the right is more dangerous than the left. Riiiiigggghhhhttt. Extremes on either side is dangerous. You'd swear by reading some of the stuff here that Republicans are wearing swastikas and the Democrats are wearing sickles and hammers.
When did the west become the bad guys of pure evil and this is coming from the people themselves, with the help of the media.

The frightening thing is Tim with each generation they get more and more extreme. In some parts of the world they are absolutely crazy.

Fox News is biased, but they do touch on the issues that others don't. We know they're biased, and no news organization IS unbiased.

those 2 shows are the bomb Lonman..I watch em every day..Obama was on Daily show tonight..it was awesome. I think Stewart has done a lot for the Dems by finding humor and irony in politics. I agree, I actually have learned the most by watching those 2 shows

It would seem only fair if the slamming certain media personalities like Sean Hannity is all the rage, that one certainly wouldn't want to leave out the ever vigilant and of course totally unbiased dynamic duo of MSNBCs Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow. Every time I see these clowns I can't help but think that MSNBC must indeed be owned by the folks that run the National Enquirer or perhaps the people that package professional wrestling for the entertainment of the masses. How ironic that John McCain risked his life so others might have the freedom to ridicule him and use as a source of amusement.

I couldn't understand why the people that want to slam Fox are so silent about the obvious bias on the other side (which you gave a good example). There is so much bias, unfairness, and bs which is one reason why I loathe politics in the first place. The other is that I see both partys as the cause for what is hurting this country right now. It does seem once again LL, that you make a lot of sense, and your post is a breath of fresh air in all this.........Ron
