Islamophobes' unwelcome at Fox News

A cable news channel that represented truly Conservative American opinion would be welcomed!

Meanwhile, thank God for Free Republic and the internet!

An example of why media should never allow foreign ownership or large share stock holding.

America has been buried.....

[verity]

There is CNN.

Makes a person wonder if FR can remain “free” if by chance it were to have several millions sent as a donation?

What would Jim do if one day he had say $20 million or more in a single donation?

Makes a person really wonder, they say every man has a price.

[manonCANAL]

I’ve given up on FOX, and bet many more will soon. Just look at oreilly and beck denying the truth about the messiah. That’s enough to make you puke.

OK do you really think because he owns 7% of News Corp he now sits in on production meetings? Do you see him telling Glenn Beck to shut up? Come on there is plenty to worry about in this country, this ranks 200000016.

Same here bud, but the bulk of America is subject to Fox and other products equally skewed, It not about objective reporting anymore. Its about politics. Clearly, we can see the composites in influence, to the point where we have a zombie representing foreign interests as president....
and from what I see, its no longer about America. ITs about foreign interests.

I don't buy it. I think it would be more realistic to say that most men have a price. I still see the occasional story of people giving away vast fortunes for no other reason than they think its the right thing to do.

[MikeGranby]

Islamophobes’ what, exactly?

[Dewey Revoltnow]

This Islamophobe may have to stop WATCHING Fox if they’re going to cave in.

Then someone else would start a new one.

"Today, I'm not invited at Fox News. Neither is Robert Spencer or Brigitte Gabriel," he laments. "But Ibrahim Hooper is invited to speak at Fox News. It used to be that experts on terrorism who are critical of the Islamic views [were] able to get a voice on Fox News. Those days are gone."

If this is true, then Fox needs to hear about it. I find myself watching Fox less and less and don't know what guests they now have concerning Islam and terrorism. Maybe some of the conservative media watch dog groups are keeping tabs.

Ah, I said this years ago about FOX, and there wasn't even a huge money sum involved.

Matt Drudge had a show on FOX, and he wanted to show a picture of a pre-natal surgeon doing a procedure on a fetus. In the pic, the fetus had a grip on the surgeon's thumb with his tiny hand.

Drudge did not even mention the word abortion, he just wanted to show the picture. FOX nixed it, saying that the pic might be "too disturbing" for some of it's audience. Drudge wouldn't pull it, so he was axed.

I lost all respect for FOX then and there.

[IbJensen]

I believe what's missing is the ' at the beginning. But then you probably knew that all along.

Nitpick elsewhere, please.

PC is a deadly disease.

[thecabal]

What is up with this flood of “FOX News is controlled by the Saudis” stories? I don’t necessary take FOX as the gospel truth, but I have a hard time believing that a <10% stake gets you such an iron fist of control. Smells a bit like a coordinated propaganda effort.

[IbJensen]

Glenn doesn’t talk about Islam and Islamic terrorism.

[Eye of Unk]

I guess this means by my very posting of my opinion it will mean that Free Republic won’t be given any massive donation...with strings attached.

Sorry Jim for sinking the ship.

Well I hope they try, honestly I dare them to try and buy off Free republic like they are doing to FOX.

I demand they put up or shut up.
