^^ News commentary is also a part of news, dumbass--and it has been for a long time:

Cronkite's Vietnam Commentary - Feb. 27, 1968

STFU, stooge.

as of now, the Republican leadership is horrid.

the same old will not defeat BO in 2012.

12/8/2009 2:52:52 PM

There are places for commentary. That place is not in a news story as innuendo, right under the "Fair and Balanced" motto.

Just because it has been happening for a while, or that it happens on other networks, doesn't mean it's okay or that it shouldn't be criticized.

12/8/2009 3:25:41 PM

^ Your lack of understanding of news commentary, graphics as editorial devices, and visual rhetoric in general is appalling.

12/8/2009 3:58:47 PM

1/2 you trolls are just jealous that fox news literally leads all news ratings by and far by a huge margin. therefore you bash it.

while obama sits at an approval rating of- GALLUP: 47% and falling.

if CNN threw away journalistic integrity and turned into an entertainment network like Fox News is then im sure they could whip Fox's ass

The Daily Show had a great skit on that picture last night. Anyone else see it?

12/9/2009 7:49:00 AM

I saw it. Making fun of fox news is way too easy. Thinking about the ignorant American viewing public that actually watch that bullshit really bothers me.

12/9/2009 8:21:58 AM

thinking about people that actually give a fuck about what other people are watching bothers me

12/9/2009 8:26:05 AM

When said people have a vote in a government that can impact my life, it's not all that unreasonable.

12/9/2009 8:32:56 AM

I have a feeling that most of the people that are hardcore Fox News watchers would vote Republican anyways, regardless of how unfair and unbalanced the coverage is.

The moderates and those that actually consider both parties when voting won't let a certain media outlet completely dictate their voting process.

12/9/2009 9:06:16 AM

It isn't about being conservative or liberal. It's about being ignorant.

But their opinion determines if we get a David Brooks Republican or a Sarah Palin Republican.

12/9/2009 9:19:22 AM

Don't worry, the GOP is going to NY23 itself here soon enough. Wait until they start ejecting blacks and non-Palin women.

Has a clip about that poll

And a great segment about Gretchen Carlson dumbing herself down for Fox's ignorant viewers.

so the other networks dont 'dumb' themselves down?

they dont have obvious bias?

please.

12/9/2009 11:19:06 AM

^some bias, yes,
dumbing down like this as if she's talking to 5 year olds, NO

12/9/2009 12:20:41 PM

She googled Czar because she didn't know what it meant. Now she knows it means King!!!!!!

"We have all these kings now" she said. I LOL'ed on that one. Woke the wife up watching that last night.

Faux News: "We Distort, You Decide"

I do love seeing all of these citizens of Glennbeckistan giving O'reilly a hard time pretty much every night for being "too soft on Obama and the left". If it wasn't for the $$$ I doubt he'd allow himself to be subject to Beck's baffoonery on this joint tour of theirs.

12/12/2009 12:09:43 AM

Maybe if O'Reilly shilled for the gold industry, too... hmmm...

12/13/2009 12:37:42 PM

he does

12/13/2009 3:23:46 PM

To be fair (and balanced?) so does Alan Colmes. But then again he doesn't preach ad nauseam on his show about how we need to invest in gold because our money sucks.

that's what i thought

but this guy wants to kill me with hate and not with laughter

12/14/2009 10:50:57 AM

i actually am rooting for the msnbc's, nbc's, abc's, cbs's, cnn's etc of the world.

we need people preaching more about conserving resources, being overly policitally correct, stay inside your house on the internet all day, while i go out and exploit resources and make money all while polluting.

i'm sick of foxnews propagating evil 'coorporations' that help people make a lot of money and naturally spread the wealth amongst competition while driving us to create new technology to survive.

absolutely hate it.

12/14/2009 11:09:17 AM

you're over-thinking it

this is about perpetual improper and over-usage of the Impact font and crazy sound effects

12/14/2009 11:33:36 AM

I guess a liberal would judge the quality of a news organization based on their choice of font

12/14/2009 11:56:48 AM

^only a fox news watching donut brain would trivialize the debate of journalistic integrity in this way
way to go, keep it up and you'll have a job with fox news

I think pack_bryan is the most annoying of all current posters

Not so much because of what he's saying or how pointless it is...but because I know he's just sitting at his computer chuckling to himself at how funny and smart he thinks he is

12/14/2009 1:36:50 PM

I think ElGimpy is the most annoying of all current posters is an actual al qaeda operative inside the USA

Not so much because of what he's saying or how pointless it is...but because I know he's just sitting at his computer chuckling to himself at how funny and smart he thinks he is Not because of any logic but I just want to sound like a fucking dumbass like ElGimpy.

12/14/2009 1:54:42 PM

agreed...I am an Al Queda operative

12/14/2009 1:59:23 PM

^ Al. . .um. . .it is? Seems legit--the terrorists probably don't know how to spell it, either.
