30 reasons why FOX is not legit

[FJO]

I am not going to quote post #1 because I have no intention to repeat and give credence to liberal stupidity.

But I am going to ask the OP to give not 30, but just ONE (1) reason to think that CNN and/or MSNBC are legitimate.

"FYI, Fox News is only good for wacking off to the bimbos".

Those "bimbos" have a degrees in law, journalism, philosophy, theology, medicine, music and any other discipline you care to name.

The fact that you are pissed off with them is because they are also better looking than any off the harridans you can see on the competing (now here is a laugh based on viewership) networks and they are more educated than you could ever hope to be and you are probably uglier than Helen Thomas or Madeline Albright. Or Candie Crowley. Or Rachel Maddow.

That FOX so irritates liberals is reason for conservatives to lie to pollsters and tell them they're watching FOX continually even if they're not. Hey, liberals are required to lie so why should conservatives not be allowed the option?

But it is easier for some to be told "what to think" than given an option to make up their own mind.

LMAO..angry, bitter, frustrated partisans chirping and chittering about television shows...

The desperation is almost palpable...

Fox pays taxes. Tax exempt Media Matters is not legit. MM has some nerve bring up the legitimacy factor since it is an intentionally bigoted and biased arm of the democrat party, personally bankrolled by a ruthless thief who was kicked out of France for insider trading and almost ruined the British banks with a money/pounds scheme that netted him a billion. Soros is a corporate pirate and everything left wingers should hate except that he is politically far left.

That is not how TV ratings are done. they do not use polls.

To find out who is watching TV and what they are watching, the company gets around 5,000 households to agree to be a part of the representative sample for the national ratings estimates. Nielsen's statistics show that 99 million households have TVs in the United States, so Nielsen's sample is not very large. The key, therefore, is to be sure the sample is representative. Then TVs, homes, programs, and people are measured in a variety of ways.
To find out what people are watching, meters installed in the selected sample of homes track when TV sets are on and what channels they are tuned to. A "black box," which is just a computer and modem, gathers and sends all this information to the company's central computer every night. Then by monitoring what is on TV at any given time, the company is able to keep track of how many people watch which program.
Small boxes, placed near the TV sets of those in the national sample, measure who is watching by giving each member of the household a button to turn on and off to show when he or she begins and ends viewing. This information is also collected each night.
The national TV ratings largely rely on these meters. To ensure reasonably accurate results, the company uses audits and quality checks and regularly compares the ratings it gets from different samples and measurement methods.

Hypocrite left wingers have ABC, CBS, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, Al Jazeera, NBC and probably a dozen other left wing propaganda venues so why are they so focused on Fox? You almost gotta laugh when the admittedly biased Media Matters which is tax exempt and bankrolled by a left wing corporate pirate decides to bring up the legitimacy of a popular legitimate network. The dirty little secret is that left wingers long for the good old days when liberal Wally Cronkite was the king and only liberal news was spoon fed to Americans.

Progressive media is far too intelligent for most people, especially for the Dem base who, according to the Obamas, don't even know there's an election on Nov 4!

That's why Liberal media is a Fail, they're talking to a dumb audience

 

[HenryBHough]

Dumb but loyal!

Change the name of the news organization and the president and you could apply that article to MSNBC...

True. Notice they don't go after any other news station
They know where their bread is butter is and how to milk people like the op to support their idiotic Obsession

One might say that Media Matters is trying to tell people what to think...

And faux isn't?

Fact is, there's no such thing as unbiased "news" but Fox is by far away, the worst and its for one reason - they lie. It has been proven and RWs know it.

Some RWs like being stupid because it makes them feel like they belong. Hence, the popularity of an entire "news" whose purpose is to make the rich richer and kill the middle class.

That definition matches the drones who watch MSNBC (well, all 150,000 of them anyway) but not the watchers of FOX. Joe Klein (a very famous liberal indeed) says that if you want news, you have to watch FOX.

Time 8217 s Joe Klein Can t Stand Watching CNN Would Rather Watch Fox Mediaite

From Media Matters, the most "unbiased" source of news there is.

Oh, Jim, you're so entertaining.

Media Matters is a 501c3 begging to be audited by the IRS during the next Republican Administration

You think that speaks well for republican administrations, vendettas?

Vendetta? Why should Media Matter be allowed to claim an exemption they're clearly not entitled to?

I would fully expect that to happen. It's what the right wing does. Media Matters doesn't ever advocate for any specific candidate, but they do a good job of pointing out the documented lies and disgusting behavior of the right wing. You might note that I said DOCUMENTED. That's very different than the innuendo that fox uses.

But the fact that Carl Rove can have one is OK with you....right?
