Fox is the best news operation on TV. That’s why liberals hate it.
FOXNEWS isn’t perfectly conservative, but it’s still my #1 choice for TV news.
This gets me to thinking about where I’ve worked. Other than the union bosses and grievancemen (who were syndicalists of course) there were very few progressives or liberals. The counties were run by Democrats but they were not the socialists of today. I’m wondering just how we got to the septic tank we’re in today.
” The alphabet networks have always had left leaning producers, writers, and hosts. The reason is that most “journalists” have been indoctrinated by liberal schools of journalism
...the networks a product of years of leftist education and intent on being advocates of social change—change away from traditional American values that they view as archaic.”
Sheer pap.
The networks are in it for the MONEY.
A: They make money from ‘progressive” government spending and borrowing programs that boost the consumer spending they get all their money from.
B: Their advertisers prefer easily manipulated viewers IE: Liberals.
By being balanced FOX gets a share of the liberal idiots and a larger share of ‘normal’ people so their business plan works.
FoxNEWS is what CNN was originally meant to be, when it was formed back in the late 70s: the go-to place when news happens. Their collection of panelists are the types of people one would expect to have seen on Washington Week in Review in the 70s or The MacLaughlin Group in the 80s, maybe as late as the early 90s: not necessarily fair, not necessarily balanced, but not indoctrinationally polemical.
Nobody really presents the news. What they do is postulate an opinion on a story, then give two sides to it. You very rarely see an investigative look into facts, just a headline then the arguments.
I just don’t watch the news, anymore.
TV news is TV news, the point is to sell your eyeballs to advertisers, any information you might get from that is purely accidental. It’s all crap, some of it is just a different kind of crap.
