Fox News Hates You ...

I got a lotta problems with you people!
Of all the lame shit to get your panties in a wad over---seriously. They probably didn't run a banner about the DNC being evacuated because we all already know that the DNC had been evacuated since November.
Besides, you have every other MSM source (CBS News, The NY Times, the Washington Post, etc.) giving the unbalanced coverage in favor of the Left. Let us have our one (Fox News) MSM outlet.
Sheese.

I don't watch much new on TV, so I'm speaking from second-had information here, but I doubt FOX would lose any respect from any quarter if they simply used a motto along the lines of "Providing a Counterpoint to the NYT and Dan Rather types".

"Of all the lame shit to get your panties in a wad over..."
For the record, if my panties are gonna be in a wad, it's over something like this (hat tip: Nordy), not that.
In any event, you can have whatever you like, but would it be too much to ask to do away with the "Fair & Balanced" horseshit?

Pity the poor, wittle conservatives with all three branches of government under their control. Almost brings a tear to my eye.

Sing me from a new fucking songbook Robbie...there is no overt or even covert "agenda" in the media for the left. There is simply the blind chase for ratings and a race to the bottom. Sadly, the Repubs and their mouth organ fox news will win that race too.

Interesting link, BHS, but isn't the word "conspiracy" used w/r/t to Michael Moore and George Soros extremely overblown? I think "conspiracy" and I'm thinking hushed whispers and secret meetings, not Freepers screaming from every rooftop about how Michael Moore is fat and George Soros is Satan incarnate. The rise of MoveOn and the efforts of George Soros were two of the most overreported aspects of the last presidential campaign. Calling that a conspiracy sort of waters down the meaning of the word conspiracy if you ask me.
