What do you mean why do I watch it so much? I don't watch Fox very often, I don't watch television period very often.

:confused:

Try again, this time don't make any assumptions.

I think it is a fair assumption that when you say when you hear it is like ancient times or whatever so you are outraged by them that you would watch it more frequently than not. I hope you wouldn't watch it only once or twice and then be prepared to cast them into the depths of hell.

With the Dems pulling off the "hat trick" tonight (President and large gains in the House and Senate), how will Fox stay competitive in ratings without interviews from the Dems?

It's going to be funny to watch Fox beg for interviews.... I'm beside myself.

Fox is the top rated news network right now and now they will do even better. Now that Obama is coming to power no one will want to hear the propaganda from the other networks. Who wants to hear Rachel Maddow continue to blow smoke up his ass? Things for Obama are going to go south really fast and Fox will be there to chronicle the fall. Remember that Rush became a radio star in the Clinton years. It helped him that a Dem was in the White House.

Missing tonight are say three or four prolific posters Obama Haters. Are they on suicide watch? Or are they downloading new instructions from the Mother Ship?

They've been steadily declining. Recheck your ratings... they've been updated since last year.

^You're so bad! I betcha they'd be flooding the forum if Mccain want. They're probably sitting on the couch in their mom's basement, drinkin' a bear and grumbling under their breath, if not lighting someone's trash can on fire.

Yep even the stupid at some point realize the wallet is empty and the house is being foreclosed and you're out of a job while they give $700 billion to The Masters of The Universe on Wall Street and ZERO to you. While Faux News goes on and on about voter fraud, God-hating democrats and Obama the terrorist Muslim with a nack for socialism.

What's even funnier is this Fifth Column in The Third Estate could not generate enough propaganda bullshit this time to make voters forget the country is going to hell in a handbasket. Damn that Dow Jones, damn those unemployment numbers, damn those failing banks...OBAMA"S A TERRORIST don't you CARE???

1. on the contrary. I am disapproving of people like you who support corruption, and incompetence and then spend their time telling the other side how wretched they are.

I get to sit on the sidelines and watch your sniping, and be objectively disgusted by it.

2. saying i am proud not to touch the same levers you do is not divisive at all...since, after all, your lever pulling forbids independent candidtates from having the same access that your candidates enjoy. You can't call me divisive when you are busy denying 3rd party candidates entrance into your little playground. It can't be divisive if people can't get in to produce dissent.

3. Oh yea, you don't support divisive diatribes? What about when you were busy making up your story yesterday of Obama Fucking McCain on his bed with his legs spread while his wife ran upstairs to see what was wrong? Yeah, that is class all the way. Not divisive, but unifying...

you are a clown, and just as bad as those you despise across the chasm of hatred that both sides sit there yelling over.

Frankly, taking relish in "get[tting] to sit on the sidelines" is not what I would consider an admirable position.

I am in full agreement that knee-jerk partisan sniping and bickering is a cancer. And clearly, Republican and Democratic candidates, elected officials, and administrations are rife with imperfections and thus deserving of criticism.

But sitting on the sidelines and casting aspersions on those who are actively engaged in the process is indicative of either an immature attitude or a lack of a sophisticated understanding of political practicalities.

As an intelligent, thoughtful member of society, one would better serve oneself and society by being actively involved.

And you voted for....? (I can't wait to hear this)

don't why it would be so exciting to you.

I voted Libertarian, as i have in the last 3 elections before this one. they are the only third party that approximates some of my views and has a realistic shot of making any kind of dent into the corruption your parties have chained this country with.

I don't, are you smoking crack tonight? When have you ever seen Marley engaged in racism? Oh, is it one of those "facts" that you can speak into existence? How do you breathe with your head that far up your ass?

Oh I'm not specifically citing you as racist, but blatantly partisan and divisive? Hells yes. Not that I find too much fault in it, but I mean cmon. Fox News isn't that bad. If you have a problem with it don't watch it. I don't. And no one who disagrees with it should. The people who you'd call ignorant and plain wrong think the same thing about you if you watch MSNBC, listen to NPR or read the NYTimes

EDIT: Ya gotta admit, as a business model, Fox is brilliant. There was no major outlet for conservative news media on TV prior. And they've cornered that market. Fox will not lose its audience. Besides, like the left leaning outlets under Bush, their party is not in power. They don't need to defend anything or anyone. So now they can do nothing but attack and draw viewership dissatisfied with the Obama victory.

Once again, ridiculous. I'm one of the few Obama supporters that gives republicans credit. Although it's annoying to have to post disclaimers, I often mention that I'm not talking about ALL republicans.

Not that I find too much fault in it, but I mean cmon. Fox News isn't that bad.

Yes the fuck it is that bad. The racism is so blatant I can't imagine how people don't see it.

If you have a problem with it don't watch it. I don't.

Why do you think I watch it? I don't, the ONLY time I turn on Fox is for King of the Hill, Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad. I hear about the propoganda and discrimination when I'm on youtube.

I'd kindly advice you to stop making assumptions, I wouldn't want you to make an ass of yourself.

i am actively involved in the process....i simply don't care to join those voting for corruption.

I vote, i simply do not vote for the two parties that are responsible for creating the mess. and i criticize and critique those who are responsible for supporting these two parties that have utterly destroyed any sense of deceny, idealism, functionality, honor, and true democracy that once existed if not in our government then at least in the ideals of what we thought our government should be.

there is no excuse for what the republicans and democrats have done to the government and the political system...the only ones to blame are the people who keep sending these two identical corrupt parties back to power year after year, without any care for true change.

Bullshit, you're saying 3rd party isn't corrupt? I can only hope you're not that blind.

Yeah, let's vote your party in so they can get their piece of the corrupt pie!!!:tongue:

That's a nice little racket you've got going for yourself.

Absolved of all responsibility. You're never wrong. You get to make sweeping statements and blanket generalizations without any supporting citations. And you get to self-righteously blame everyone else for everything.

it is rather sad how both the left and right are so hateful towards each other, and take such delight in the others misery.

what an embarassing example of america.

I am glad i do not pull the same voting levers as either of you partisans do.

frankly those of you on here bitching about Fox, are just as bad as the pundits and partisans on it...you just don't have the viewership. no other difference.

Flashy- there is a huge difference between being party to a large scale and coordinated disinformation and propaganda media consortium... and being incensed at the kind of moral turpitude that is at the heart of being party to it.

Your comments are as illogical as they are off base.

By your logic no judge could condemn a man for libel... because you see no difference between making shit up about people and finding them guilty of something they did in fact.


In Fact... FOX has waged a campaign of misinformation, bias, and slander... and has actively promoted and promulgated fear and hatred between various groups in this country.


Condemning THAT is NOT equivalent to doing that.


Saying that I am unwilling to put up with the kind of hateful fucks who Lynch black people or tie gay men to fences is NOT "just as bad" as the rhetoric of hatred that incites such horrific crimes.

I am acting MORALLY in agitating against the propaganda mill that is FOX news.

They are acting IMMORALLY in their willingness to distort and outright misrepresent information with the intent to convince their viewers to think things that are not true and back agendas that are NOT in their interests of their viewers.


Sorry, dude... you are just way off the mark...

Too bad about your vote not really counting for anything...
Way to miss the bus on one of the most important and historically significant days in US history...!
