Fox News trustworthy? I donā€™t knowā€¦after they got owned by Rachel Maddow tonight for saying that if federal investigators were unleashed on basically any workplace in America, they would be likely to find some racist emails. Say what? Where do those people work who believe that? This kind of put paid to the remnants of credibility they retained with me.

Yes, Maddow is biased - most openly so - but at least she has a sense of humor. If a talk show host has me laughing, at least I know to not take her extra-seriously, and Iā€™m entertained in the bargain.

I used to watch Fox and Friends until a memorable moment years ago when the hosts were discussing something Rosie Oā€™ Donnell said. They didnā€™t say she was wrong because she was factually incorrect but because, as Brian Kilmeade put it, ā€œShe sees the world through lesbian eyes.ā€ Whatever that means. I stopped watching Oā€™Reilly and Fox News altogether shortly after that because it was too much punditry and not enough news. Iā€™m not even sure how anyone could rate Fox on news coverage because almost nothing they broadcast is news reporting except a quick 2 minutes between opinions and puff pieces.

Please provide the source for this quote. I canā€™t find anything on it and I am sure that if this is in fact what was said it would be a simple Google search from my finger tips.

This is, in my opinion, an example of the anecdotal ā€œevidenceā€ which is used to continue hating something or someone who we disagree politically. Itā€™s called gossip. Prove me wrong.šŸ™‚

I stand corrected. I did find the quote of this incident. If you click on the link it will take you to the quote YOU made in 2013 here on CAF. That is the only hit I got on Google trying many different combinations of words about the ā€œquoteā€ you site. In other words, it appears you are the only person who made these comments, or at least in the hateful context you state the words.

Thatā€™s a really good point. It reminds me of why I left the left long agoā€¦ too many opinions, no solid answers and everything going its own way led to nothing good or truly unifying.

Havenā€™t found any video yet at all, so as to the context and the exact quotes on this ā€œstatementā€ there is as usual no verification.

Help us out here, please give us the link to the video, the COMPLETE video so that we understand the complete context of the statement.

Every network is biased.

Better to watch both Fox and [insert liberal network here] than to only watch one biased side and think youā€™re getting the whole picture.

Other than Fox,all the other networks have an incestuous relationship with Obama.This being that many of his advisors or those holding an administrative position are either married to or related to in some fashion ,to someone employed by the major news organizations.
Check it out by googling this info.
So,is it any wonder the media is biased towards Obama,Clinton,etc?šŸ¤·:cool:

Likewise, when people emerge from the swamps and crop fields they tend to become liberal. Maybe because exposure to the diversity of people and culture in cities changes minds.

This sounds pretty swampy to me. šŸ™‚ I talked like this when I was 17.

BTW, a majority of my life has been in cities, including childhood.

I could find neither a video nor a link to the actual Fox source.

What is Demanjo?

Libel.
 
Fow news has far too many sensationalized stories about horrible crimes against children and women, in my opinion. I stopped going to their website when I was pregnant because there were so many horrible stories that my poor husband would find me in tears almost daily (Iā€™m tough, but pregnancy hormones can do that). My hubby would walk in the room and ask, ā€œHave you been looking at Fox News again?ā€. LOL! Itā€™s as if they seek out the nastiest stories. even if they are quite far away, and give far too many gory details. I found it degrading and disrespectful to victims. I also got tired of being told the sky was falling on a daily basis. I have not been back to their website.

Thanks for posting this, it was not there this morning when I searched. Obviously this was not what some would suggest it was. It is obviously meant as a hyperbole to show how desperate the situation is in the Ukraine, it is very bleak indeed.

What is degrading and disrespectful to victims is to not tell the story of their persecutions. I respect your decision to switch the channel but the truth must be told.

Youā€™re welcome. I didnā€™t notice any obvious hyperbole on his part in either part of the segment. He sounded like a standard fox news military analyst and the same as just about all of the military analysts on all of the US networks.

Perhaps Iā€™ve become numbed by the relentless propaganda. Maybe immune? šŸ™‚ That would be nice. I do agree that ā€œthe truth must be toldā€.
