Re: What statement would you like to hear from a world leader?
You want to know the reason so many journalists hate Fox? Simple. Because it doesn't broadcast facts.
If everyone else reports an Apple is an Apple, Fox will report it's an Orange because an Apple would make Obama look good, and we can't be having that now, can we.
Yes, as I've said, the other media does have a bias and a liberal slant. However, that doesn't stop them from reporting the facts. They keep their bias for opinion shows. Fox doesn't. And therein lies the difference.

In a survey conducted by the American Society of Newspaper Editors in 1997, 61% of reporters stated that they were members of or shared the beliefs of the Democratic Party. Only 15% say their beliefs were best represented by the Republican Party.[24] This leaves 24% undecided or Independent.
it was revealed that the Democratic Party received a total donation of $1,020,816, given by 1,160 employees of the three major broadcast television networks (NBC, CBS, ABC), while the Republican Party received only $142,863 via 193 donations.[22] Both of these figures represent donations made in 2008.

They have changed from a 'news' show to an 'opinionated' show. Fox news can go and **** itself. Its a reactionary tool against the left wing controlled media in the us and elsewhere. News corp generally has been pretty showed up recently hasn't it, or is that without substance too?

It is a well known fact that the media is generally quite leftist not only in america, but elsewhere. That is a fact obtainable from non dodgy sites, observable infact. Perhaps you just never switch off fox news.

i think perhaps that someone isnt stealing enough oxygen, as they display some symptoms quite common with oxygen deprivation.

A former Cop and paid Fox news commentator claimed on O'Reilly's show that Pink Pistol packing Lesbians were terrorising America.

Looks like you should practice deep breathing and read the thread before you jump in. It's your anti-Fox buddies that are claiming that US media is not tilting to the left, spuoting banalities and quoting dodgy websites along the way.

Indeed. Fox is a dodgy news channel and has been found to have a problem with facts many times. We're not talking a little bias here. Glenn Beck, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Cannity...I mean, come on. Have you listened to them?. Anyone who can't see what Fox are is deluding themselves.

Rumour has it that Murdoch is even afraid to try to tackle some of these guys. I'm glad that these nutbags and their behaviour would never be accepted on european television. Well, I have never seen anything like it.
Well, fox news was obviously not good enough for glenn beck..

Thats irrelevant. I merely replied to your post which quite clearly states 'no substance'. That is all. I had no intentions of commenting on anything else.

Personally? I think Fox is far too left wing.

And your posts are deluded and bordering on paranoid. "We have good manners and respect for pluralism"...did you see Bill in action in the video posted up there?
