Fox News : The News is What We Say It Is

Reporters Blow Whistle on FOX News

Does this disgust you as much as it disgusts me? What bothers me the most is where I work, the only station we can watch is Faux (because it's the 'best' news). This is frustrating; the people aren't hearing this because they believe the lies that FOX News spreads. Is there anything we can do? Anything?

[Aeiralo]

Ah, Faux news.

They're the so called 'conservative' baston in the 'liberal' media.

At least the 'liberal' media don't lie about CAUSING CANCER.

 

[Mathematician]

Disgusting.

 

[Djamila]

Back in the USSR, you don't know how lucky you are...

 

[Bishka]

Ah, Faux news.

Oh, I've never liked or even agreed with Faux news. It disgusts me to have people act like that in 'the name of Christ'.

It's not as easy to fool the public as it once was. The masses have been lied to through out history. Do you know who is the father of lies?

Dubya.

Just kidding, if you are referring to Satan the Father of all lies, yes I do know.

I've been known to cause cancer.

I don't watch TV. TV rots your brain like it's crack cocaine.
I look up the news online so I can get more sources.
The problem is, the news stations are run by people, people are biased and cannot be trusted.

Fox news is, as I have said before, proof of what happens when you run such a service at the lowest common denominator

 

[nutshell]

Fox news is no different than any of the others. Get over it.

May I reccommend two films?

First is The Corporation, the documentary that the clip in Becky's OP is from. I'm sorry for the low quality of that link, it's the only one I know of. It's also on Google Video- but in 23 parts.

Second is OutFoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism, which you can watch there.


Also, if the *spits* Monsanto *spits* Corporation *spits* bit interests you- please please please check out these films I'll link to. Seeds of Suicide by PBS's Frontline and The Future of Food. Monsanto is a horrible company- they've done everything from artifical sweeteners to Agent Orange to sterile seeds. They're killing my people, please think about that next time you pick up a bottle of RoundUp.

You have anything to else to say or contribute to this conversation, or you just want us to all get over it?

This company is influencing so many people I know, and they refuse to see differently because they see Fox News as the only conservative news out there. I have the owner of the company I work at telling his employees that there is a "War on Christmas" and that we must combat that evil. My good friend and co-workers are being influenced by these idiotic ideas.

This is another video I just ran across.

One point that blew my mind, one of the Faux Reporters stated, "My religion doesn't teach me that." What does religion have to do with her journalism? She is a journalist, she reports the facts. This frustrates me!

 

[Mathematician]

Fox News is to conservatism what Comedy Central is to liberalism; only stats show people learn more from CC.

Yeah , it's like when those who oppose gay marriage say "my religon doesn't condone that.". What does religion have to do with a persons sexual preference?

FOX is a drop in the media sea, liberal media spin being a tsunami.

 

[Bishka]

Fox News is to conservatism what Comedy Central is to liberalism; the only difference is CC is open about its bias.

What can we do? Nothing. I just want so semblance of the truth....a shred of it.

 

[Mathematician]

I could argue all night that the "liberal media bias" is contrived by conservatives, but I'll just point out that people shouldn't excuse this as more "bias reporting."

I love CC because of South Park, it's cornerstone and a show which predominantly mocks liberals. Matt and Trey laughed in an interview with Newsweek when asked if they were liberals.

Yeah, I don't know what it is about South Park, but the jokes I laugh the most about involve me. The atheist and WoW episodes --- :biglaugh:

The WOW one was freaking hilarious!
