We need to be prepared to do some Freeping this week to counter attack what MoveOn is doing.

I am furious that they are trying to attack Fox. They are just jealous that Fox has outdone them as far as viewership. It drives them crazy they can no longer control every angle of the news that gets fed to the American people. Arrggggg.

Forgive me, I am cranky this morning and need another cup of coffee.

""Fox effect" that supposedly forces other networks to bend conservative or lose market share."

In other words, Fox gives viewers an option to avoid watching rabidly leftist TV news that we did not previously enjoy.

...Democrats want the organization partly funded with tax dollars to hire a lefty pundit--

That's funny, I don't hear them whining for a conservative pundit to be added to the NPR lineup...

Did they ever consider that most of the American people are tired of the leftist propaganda we are being served night after night on CNN, CBS and MSNBC? Rush and Fox News have done us a favor and opened a lot of American's eyes to the left wing bias that the media have.

What ever happened to the saying, "Give the customer what he wants?"

This is supposed to be a capitalist democracy not a leftist gestoppo.

"It's more evidence that the loopy left has taken over the liberal left."

This is all that needs to be known. The real scumbags of the left are now directing the party and they are going to pay dearly for decades...Let them keep putting these LOONEY LEFTIES out in front and center, attacking Bush and America for doing the RIGHT thing.

This is better than any ad Bush could ever "approve."

Oh good Lord! Horrible Hillary and her minions can't stand it that ONE news show (FOX), out of all of them out there, is trouncing the other shows soundly. Yep, sounds like more of that VRWC business to me.

In Rush's case, he's under fire for something he didn't do. See, he's the only political commentator on Armed Forces Radio

That's true if you believe that NPR doesn't offer "political commentary." AFRTS carries virtually the entire weekly NPR lineup, including Fresh Air, The Diane Rehm Show, Talk of the Nation, All Things Considered, and Morning Edition.

The whole right vs. left argument would be rendered moot if they would openly declare their bias.

It seems that they are finally admitting, in a roundabout way, that there is great market demand for news with less of a liberal bent and perhaps more of a conservative slant.

The days of left and center-left monopoly control of the mass media message is over. They used to be able to get the ball rolling for a leftist program with a bunch of favorable news stories. The newsies would tell us "that's the way it is," and we would believe it, and Congress (or the courts) would enact it.

I almost never watch network TV, but I saw most of a NCSI (or something like that) and most of a JAG recently, and they seemed to me to be written so as to appeal to a center-right audience (like my parents). The NCSI show dissed the recovered memory stuff, and the JAG episode defended the US war in Iraq and had a great Rumsfeld-like character who said some pretty Freeperish things. In the show he was Sec of Navy, but the character was obviously based on Rumsfeld.

And 65-80 year old center-right folks tend to vote in large numbers, and know how to use the voting machines.

With the cover of darkness that is allowed by our biased press, we have allowed a sickness to grow much like a batch of home-brew beer gone south. We are creating such mutants as Joe Wilson, Michael Moore, and the Hollywood left to name a few.
These people create havoc for the security of America world wide by defaming our good name. They claim they have freedom of speech to say what they want. They say is is their right to call the President a thug and debase his name as if it were disgusting pubic hair. However, is it free speech when the press hides the truth that refutes everything they say? Is it free speech when the antics of the Hollywood left at a Kerry fundraiser almost escaped any scrutiny had it not been the presence of a New York Post reporter? Is it free speech when the lies cause great harm and those who try to speak the truth are destroyed with character assassination (Rush Limbaugh for instance)?

The demon in past election cycles was Richard Mellon Scafe. His name became a mantra.

Looks like Richard's been replaced by Rush and Rupert.

Democrats are just like a bunch of little kids -- albeit very nasty and dangerous little kids.

. Its point: Fox is too cozy with the GOP, and Murdoch forces his righty bias on his staff.

Gretta .. Alan Colmes ... Geraldo are really members of the VRWC???

BTW ... what are the ratings for Rush and Fox???

Guess the people watching and listening are all part of the Big Bad VRWC too huh??
