Fox "news" isn't news at all. It is the Republican Propaganda media arm of the neo-conservative agenda. This not just my opinion it is fact if you watch long enough to see the propaganda.

I love Liddy, North and the other convicted Felons who are experts.
There was an interesting article in this week's TV Guide ( I know, who knew??) asking the question "Is TV Starting a New Civil War?" Talking about Fox and MSNBC. It is scary that people watch these guys and take what they are saying as gospel.

Of course these are the same people that watch those "honest" election commercials put forth and believe those versus doing simple research to see if what they are saying is true about a candidate.

That's why we have idiots in office.

Yup. Really scary out there.

Is Charlie Gasparino on? He recently bailed from one of the other channels to join the Fox Biz channel. He knows some stuff.

Also, on the Fox Biz saturday talk shows I give credit to Jonathan Hoenig, who self describes as a capitalist pig.. The Capialist Pig. He doesn't take much lame BS from the others.

I go to Fox News to get the Republican side of an issue. At least you can be sure to get it at Fox News.

If it's really that bad, then you guys really need to learn to change the channel. Maybe that's why FOX is killing the competition...all the haters watching it just to whine about how biased it is. Wouldn't that be ironic?

Seriously, go on over to MSNBC...Maddow could use the viewers. The current 6 are getting lonely.

Talk about a immature response. There is not one fact in it!

People who watch it aren't necessarily stupid, but those who cling to every "argument" it makes are pretty gullible. Case in point; the other day some guy was talking about government abiding by the Constitution, and the caption at the bottom read, "All taxation is theft." LMAO!

Anyone who states someone is stupid is being judgmental..Variety is the spice of life. Why not watch all the news channels to get various opinions?!

As opposed to "the republican propaganda media arm of the neo-conservative agenda".

It becomes more and more clear why so many of you have trouble with Fox. You truly cannot tell the difference between news and commentary...between facts and opinion.

Not all opinions are valid. "The sky is green" is an opinion, but flat out false.
