Liberals can’t wrap their pointy heads around the idea that at least half the people in America don’t want what they are selling. Therefore these Americans must be, just have to be, under the influence of Fox News, Rush, etc.

“fair and balanced” instead of “factual and true”

Fox isn’t reporting news.

The idea that women can be very attractive and wear short, form-fitting dresses, and this does NOT make them stupid.

They’re reporting more news than the liberal media, even with the liberal spin having crept in by degrees over the past decade.

Fox News needs to cover the stories Bartlett complains about as a “loss leader” to suck in grassroots conservatives to lead them to the puff piece interviews with RINO politicians, spokesmen etc. so Fox can serve its purpose of helping the GOPe keep the grassroots behind its agenda and candidates.

The founder of Fox News (Roger Ailes) worked for RIchard Nixon. Nixon used Pat Buchanan and William Safire to write powerful conservative speeches for delivery by Nixon’s one man “Fox News” Vice President Spiro Agnew.

Agnew talked against liberals and the liberal media to keep the grassroots behind Nixon while he cut deals with Communists in China, the Soviet Union and Vietnam, signed off on EPA and OSHA and did other liberal things.

So many comments “awaiting moderation”. The libs are really trying to shut down dissent over there.

“The echo chamber, so the theory goes, has deluded the party into thinking that support for its radical-right views is greater than it really is. This, in turn, has convinced the party to run radical candidates who aren’t as electable as they seem to be.”

Oh really? Who controls both chambers of Congress again? I forget...

Liberals don’t want to “understand” FOX News. They want to destroy it.

Democrats control both chambers of commerce. Nothing has passed in 2015 without at least 93% Democrat votes.

That they are the only major TV news source that even comes close to exposing Obama for who and what he is. At least they are in the ballpark. The rest is just liberal snooze media.

The liberal is the child. All things are new, all things are possible. All is kindness and lovable little puppies. The Conservative is the father who whispers in the child’s ear that most things have been tried, possibilities have problems, kindness is expensive and lovable little puppies may turn into mean ugly dogs. — FReeper Captain Compassion

Isn’t interesting how the media never looks at whether the leftist positions are the ones that are “extreme”! Even though they are, sometimes to the level of fascism.

Exactly! I mean, if Fox's audience is so small and powerless, as this claptrap article suggests, why are they so far upside these leftist's heads? LOL

I once heard a lib complaining about Fox’s “fair and balanced” theme.

I said, OK, maybe they aren’t balanced, but they are attempting to BALANCE every other news source out there.
