FOX News memo from my favorite journalist, Keith Olbermann

Now, I don't think Fox News is biased. I agree with Steven Colbert that it is reality that has a liberal bias. Remember, facts may change, but the opinions of the people at Fox never will.

Such a thing is wholly illogical, I don't have even the slightest belief that the Iraqi insurgents would party based on a minor defeat for Bush's evil empire. If Bush died, there might be partying in the streets (and at my house, and in various other places in the US) but I doubt Moqtada Sadr is putting on his party hat cuz a slightly different political party has begun to return the system of checks and balances.
The point is though that no news network actually determines the news before reporting it. That's not news, that's the two minutes hate.

BBC has far more credability than either.
but saying that, CNN is still far more respectable than Fox. Fox News is a fucking joke. They're up their with the black texter marks on old russian newspapers deal. Thank christ they don't control the "facts" and that you have somewhere else to go.

They've always been that way. It's not as if they're doing anything different now.
I'll be honest, I don't watch Fox news much, if at all anymore and haven't for a while. But in the Clinton years; Now That was Entertainment.

that would have been fun, i didn't know i had fox news until after bush got in.
man, like i said, CNN is a dirty little opinion whore as well, but they at least try to be a little subtle about it. fox news are all like: "ALL DEMOCRATS ARE N4ZI FAGGOT TERRORIST QUEERS!!!"

And if any of those are tuned in, they ought to know better than to be watching Fox news if they don't want to be offended!
Seriously. Somehow, don't you think, the subtle approach is more an affront to ones intelligence? The blatant fox attitude you cite doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. And I appreciate that.

Republicans got rid of wasteful welfare, and they weren't even in the white house. I guess what I'm espousing is that nothing is cut and dried according to party. Except conservatives believe in developing the individual and democrats believe in keeping them impoverished.
But it's a one party system anyway. That's why I've basically given up caring.
One thing I thought about coming into work today: The recent immigrant crackdown is the biggest meat-packing bust since they raided mark foley's (rep) office. that was a joke on Leno last night.
So if we went the other way, we could make fun of a democrat that extolls family values? Like if somebody wanted to prove Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton sleep together? (shudder)

despy.... if you know me at all by now you'll know I'm disgusted by both.
