I don’t have television, so I don’t watch any of them. Since you have adopted the left’s attack word (Faux) against Fox, which they mean to be fake or untrue, I was curious about what great untruths you have uncovered during watching them.

If you don’t like Fox because you don’t like their format, or because of the stories they cover, then you can say it without using the word that the left is striving to attach to them as a brand.


I'm not going to stop using a term or a word just because the left uses it. I got the term from Freepers and I think it fits. Fox spends way too much time obsessed with the kind of sleaze that only appeals to trailer trash/Jerry Springer/Oprah Winfrey watchers. If you can come up with a short and amusing phrase to describe what Fox News has turned into, then by all means do so.

I do believe you not having a TV means you're ahead of the rest of us. I don't think I could wean myself off of some TV shows, but I've cut out stuff like Fox and made more productive use of my time.

Then you are using a word that the left created as a propaganda word against non liberal news, and that the left is trying to spread into the population as a branding label for Fox news, there is no excuse for that unless you support their goal.
