FOX News vs the State Run Media

Truth my arse. Brainwashed ugly 'Merican Pub dupes! See sig pp3 for some PPM lies. Off the wall hate alternate universe...
You are not smart enough to make sense. Please stfu and leave.

If one ever wanted to know why I have Franco on ignore that incoherent response is all you will ever need to see why.
 
It sounds like it needs to be clarified as to whether you are talking about the NEWS or the talking heads? There is a huge difference.

The NEWS is reported pretty much the same at the 3 cable news stations. The "information" that comes from the talking heads is vastly different.

IMHO, you're not completely truthful there. How many times have CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, and their affiliates buried stories that might show Oblamer in a bad light. Then on the other side, how many times have the above stations blown conservative views out of proportion or gone after the Tea Party? I wonder if Obama can see Russia from the steps of the White House?

And, of course, you have examples of this, right?

OK, a diagram for the lame brained...

Fox etc tells the truth? Ridiculous.

Their listeners are brainwashed, known around the world as Ugly Americans, They are the dupes of greedy rich idiot Republicans. Look at my signature below for examples, in the third paragraph, of lies repeated often on the Pub Propaganda Machine. All together, they form an off the wall alternate universe for idiot haters.
 
Republican News vs Liberal minded media.

Take your pick. But they are all biased. Some more batshit than the others.


Only "Pub news" makes up facts and spins "questions" so half the GOP believes total BS: ACORN stole the election, NBPP EXISTS lol, Obama gutted workfare, is Muslim, Kenyan, Marxist...

Total Pub Propaganda BS: ACORN, Kenyan Muslim Marxist,Tides, Mosque, Death Panel, lose your doctor, huge costs, DEBT CRISIS, Obama Recession, stimulus failed, Barney Frank, Nazi Soros, Nazi socialists, Volt suqs, Iran making bomb etc etc.

One Dem lie? ONE- not a pile of BS?
 
Once again, in a last aptain Ahab-like dying effort, a losing leftie lashed out in frustration with the claim that I get my information from FOX News. After I informed him that I don't watch FOX News, he attacked me for listening to Glenn Beck, which I informed him that I do not and I get my information from the Orlando Sentinel, USA Today, and the internet (mostly here). I have had this experience here on the USMB many times. The lefties use it as if it makes a point of some kind.

If that were true, you wouldn't be such an ass-clown idiot.

You watch fox news and repeat what you're told.

You're a mindless sheep-fuck.

We busted you.

Called you out.

And now you're a piss-poor liar, loser.

Basically this. If you cut through the spin, most of the talking heads are basically saying the same thing, just with some bias mixed in.

I for one have almost stopped watching any news on TV, and prefer to get it on the 'Net. If I do, I'll split my attention between FNC and CNN (which is easy cause they're 1 channel apart).

I know that at least two of the Major outlets of the State-Run Media have had to apologise publically for lying or falsifying information that they claim was news, but has FOX?

I have on occasion listened to Rush, and Neal Boortz, and Sean Hannity but it is rare because I'm usually at work during the times they are on, and although I have heard them omit details sometimes when they are making statements, I have never heard them lie.

So, I started this thread to discuss why FOX is so demonized by the left (I have my opinons on the matter) and to get to the bottom of the question of whether being accused of listening to FOX or Rush or Hannity, or Beck, is something to be concerned about or if the lefties are just trying to marginalize them because they don't like to hear the truth.


THe state doesn't run any media you retard.

The theory is that FOX pushes the rightwing agenda uncritically, without providing a deep analysis of both sides of the argument. Here are the things that FOX preaches in a way that lacks journalistic rigor:
  • Low taxes.
  • Deregulation.
  • An inability to explain why the postwar, high tax policies pursued by Nixon and Eisenhower were part of the most robust economic growth this country has ever seen.
  • Has an audience which knows nothing about Pinochet, or Iran's Mozzedeq, or (say) Reagan's Amnesty Bill. FOX cultivates an audience of historical illiteracy.
  • An unwillingness to acknowledge or appropriately value Government's role in the Hoover Dam, the Interstate System, the development of commercial aviation and the internet, or the great public university system and the whole modern industrial & civil infrastructure upon which commerce depends. The FOX viewer is lead to believe it's all just spending. The FOX viewer is not being educated or challenged to think about the other side of the story. The FOX viewer is simply being indoctrinated.
  • An unwillingness to talk about Reagan's foreign policy, specifically his relationship with Hussein, the Mujahideen, and Iran. This unwillingness is buffeted by a treatment of Reagan that borders on religious euphoria. It is literally unbelievable and completely divorced from the historical record.
  • An unwillingness to talk about the Iraq War in complex geopolitical terms. A failure to ever mention PNAC.
  • A deeply uncritical commitment to Ayn Rand, Hayek, and Friedman.
  • Does not draw theoretical distinctions between Marx and Keynes. (Literally, FOX makes it's money catering to under-educated revanchists who are seduced by paranoid fantasies about how an invisible network of socialists, illegals, muslims, liberals, and gays are destroying our traditions, borders, language and culture. Yet FOX never mentions the role the private sector plays by getting their labor from China and the global south. Meaning: FOX tells only one very familiar side of the story. If FOX says Saddam Hussein played a major role in 9/11, than its viewers believe it. This suggests a degree of control-over-audience that resembles the old Soviet Union)


Here is video which attempts to explain why FOX is so partisan. (I'm assuming that the OP is young and means well)

Listening or viewing any of the above mentioned outlets, or any similar outlets will garner a similar epithet as "racist". There is no reason, just emotion...and they don't agree with your source.
 
Our hometown Orlando Sentinel is kinda-sorta balanced except in the editorial department. Many of the writers are decidedly left as well.


you are full of shit good sir. The Slantnel sucks, its a shitty rag run my UofF douche bags. We have a serious lack of decent political rags in the Central FL area.
 
I assume so. So?

Then make up your fucking mind. Either your infamous "mainstream media" is state-run, or it is corporate. Or--can it be both? Are you suggesting that our government is actually CORPORATE?

Who knew? LOL

Boom! :clap2:
Well played sir, well played indeed. They walked right into it. That was like the best rhetorical trap door ever! :udaman::lol:

Not at all true. By "State-Run" I mean controlled by the State. Not the same as being owned by the state.

.......and so who controls the State? Come on, connect the dots, you can do this...

Seriously you ask this?? Is this a tactic to get people out of the way consumed with hours of amassing compendia of Fox Noise Fabrications?
Because you must know, that's already been done. It's like taking the census; you have to keep up or it grows to unmanageable proportions.

This is one of my faves -- make sure you click resize so you can see 'em all:

For the other part, did Fox apologize for all those? I doubt it. But of the ones they do, one of the better smackdowns, plus the apology, is summed up here:

BTW this should really be in the Media forum. I loooove me some Media forum.

LMAO So fox is biased right.

The rest are biased left.

Kinda funny how some folks get all bent out of shape because ONE news organization is biased right. They say FOX tells nothing but lies but are all set to believe anything and everything their lefty organizations put out there. As I said. LMAO.

Guess their lefty bias is showing big time.
