Considering the lack of ratings on MSNBC, I would say they’re pretty much a failure as well.

And the Daily Show is the same as the SeeBS Evening News. Both are pwned by Viacommie and both are as “factual” with their presentation of the news.

Fox News isn’t conservative (NEWS, not commentary).

It is just to the right of CNN just as CNN is to the right of CNN International.

With News Corp executives endorsing Kerry and Murdoch giving money to Hillary, they are hardly a voice of the Right Wing.

No, Fox News is the mirror of CNN.

MSNBC is a cartoon network.


How about they are all the same - Fox News loves to exploit tragedy as much as the other two, and they love to run crap like Geri Halliwell Parties Panty-Free at Children's Awards Show, Fox News' Sexpert, a glowing review of Obama's cabinet picks, Huge Stash of Marijuana Found in Ancient Tomb. All of that was found in just a minute or two on the main site.

I'm personally done with them. I stopped watching Faux News for a long time after I saw Captain Mascara, you know "Shep", exploiting the hell out of an Israeli family whose son (a soldier in the IDF) was kidnapped. I don't know why I watched Faux again, because the questions he was asking were just horrible.

This time around, I quit after the election night, when they began trashing McCain/Palin and praising Obama/Biden and talking about how great it was for America.

I have a few friends who still watch the crap that Fox calls "news", and I have no idea why they do - they are intelligent people, and even they admit that it's gotten pretty bad.

I should have read the whole thread - you summed up why Fox News is garbage. We’ve all seen the video where Murdoch was praising Obama. It should have been pretty clear where their loyalties lay when they were backing Rudy Giuliani - they lean to the left more than some will acknowledge. They pretend they are conservative, but if you looked at the majority of their stories, they are exactly as you say - tabloid.

Bill Maher is hands down the worst individual on television next to Keith Olbermann.

No doubt about it. Especially since that nutcase O’Donell left The View.
