I cannot believe how biased the media has become. I am talking about mostly Fox News. All I ever hear from Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly is how bad President Barack Obama is. They don't tell how their group of loudmouth buffoons in the Republican Party are any better.
Fox News is driven by the same warmongering neoconservatives who hijacked the nation's foreign policy and destroyed the Constitution.
It also bothers me how they view Muslims. The way they act makes it seem as if all Muslims are radicals and want to strap bombs to themselves and kill everyone. I disagree. There are radicals in every religion.
It also sickens me that the neoconservatives on Fox use fear to prey on the uneducated, who really do not know any better.
When George W. Bush was in office, commentators on Fox News had little or no criticism for his actions, which showed there is nothing fair or balanced about that network.
If people really want the truth, they should listen to Ron Paul, listen to Dennis Kucinich, study history, watch the History Channel and C-Span. They should not let the slanted, corrupt Fox News tell them their version of the truth.
People should get educated and find the truth for themselves.

The biased media is the
The biased media is the liberal rags like the NY Times and the awful MSNBC shows like Keith Obberman, or how ever that left wing attack dog spells it. The reason FOXN is so huge, and still growing, is the left wing media that under reports, doesn't report and distorts according to the left wing agenda.

Response of a rational person:
No, you are actually describing yourself. In true right wing Republican fashion, you didn't offer a single idea, a single point, nothing of substance. All you can do is offer an insult.
OK, what do you think of the Wall Street Journal praising the stimulus and noting that it has stopped the slide to insolvency among banks.
We're waiting? Oh, I know, you're a "conservative" and that means never having to actually do anything but stare at the sun and get someone to occasionally drain your sippie cup. If you knew better you'd be a Democrat. As it stands you're merely an embarrassment.

I can't believe you called Fox News biased. Their news shows are the most fair & balanced anywhere. Bill Oriellys #1 new show is very fair and balanced. Special Report & Fox News Sunday are the most independent news shows on tv. Sean Hannitty is a conservative republican, he doesn't hide it. Glenn Beck is a Libertarian who goes after both parties. All I can say is thank God for Fox News. Just because FOX doesn't put a liberal spin to the news , like all the other major networks do does'nt mean they are anti Democrat.

Everyone keeps saying Fox News is bias and false news. When asked for one story that was false, no seems to have an answer. O'Reilly, Beck and Hannity are commentators and analysts, of course their will be bias. Listening to those three is like reading an op-ed page in a newspaper.
So again, could someone please give me an example of a false news story by Fox News.
Oh yeah, "anything they report" does not count. I want a specific example.

Now some serious stuff:
1. Bill O'Reilly: He voted for Obama at least he did say that. He has mentioned time and time again how smart he is etc. He also has expressed a great desire for him to succeed but now I think he maybe changing his tune slightly. He continues to be surprised at what he is doing and that is what shocks him.
2. Glenn Beck: He's a good watchdog! he is doing what the other media outlets should be doing getting to the bottom of government corruption, Acorn, Alan Jones etc there is a connection here and he will find it. And to say they say nothing about GB is? he has criticized him quite allot. He has not discriminated in his views or reporting.
3 Sean Hannity: Like wise has criticized GB along with Rush, Laura Ingram and other conservative talk shows. I will say Sean has stretched the truth a bit like the other day he sd 100 day instead of 70 days that McCrystall had spoken to the Pres.
So I believe you have sir have said something that is BIAS on your part, simply because you really don't know these people like I do and you should apologize to the good readers here about providing false info!!

The liberals can't stand when someone tells the public that the Tin Pot Dictator has no clothes on. I can't stand to listen to the Lamestream media. They are just a conduit for the socialist agenda that the liberals have been trying to push through when Roosavelt was in office. Would the People who call Fox news biased and slanted like a news system like they had in the USSR? Pravda (truth? according to the government.) Take the corrupt Acorn, They were willing to help,without question, a pimp and a prostitute start a brothel with underage girls. and I know it was a investagative report. But how many times did you hear about it on the alphabet channels or see anything about it in the lamestream media? zip...., only after fox news showed it over 300 times did congress decide to cut off funding, And when Mr.Bush was in the Whitehouse, there was no liberal press bias? they called him an idiot a traitor and a war monger, and had no regret about that. where in fact he is a collage graduate, and has an IQ that was higher than most, Including Owl Gore. so yes I'm glad that Fox news is on the air,so there are two side to the story being reported on, Atleast Fox doesn't have a great big box of shine@ss rags to polish the seat of the Annointed one, Keep your head in the sand hum the song, you know.... mmmm mmmm mmmm BHO. the savior of the world.

How about real news, like when Dan Rather was a news reporter...ooops that's right he was fired for itchy trigger finger reporting lies before checking the facts. Ok, let me put it in simpler terms so even Lil can understand, by singing the Barack song:

For someone who hates FNC as much as Mr Roy claims to, he sure seems to spend most of his day watching it. Lose the remote again? But don't worry, the administration and Dems in general want to remove your choice of what to watch, leaving you with just the pablum on ABC, CBS and NBC. See, they can't compete with FOX so they want the government to disappear it, in the interest of fairness. That whooshing sound you hear is the 1st Amendment being scrubbed out of the Constitution you love so much.
The History Channel?! How many episodes of Ice Road Truckers and the Nostradamus Effect can you watch before your mind turns to ... never mind, it's already happened. That channel is to history what the LSJ is to journalism.

Would you like to respond? Login or create a new account. You'll need to verify your account before you can respond.If the author were to listen
If the author were to listen to Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich as suggested, it would be understood that Constitutional violations are an element found in both parties, not unique to the Bush administration, nor did it start in this or the previous century.
Nearly every news outlet presents a degree of bias. Most of this is a "mainstream" bias where both sides agree. Constitutional violations that support one agenda are overlooked while violations of the other side are reprehended. Few in the news media question the Constitutionality of government mandated "free" health care, just as there was little question about the Constitutionality of war in Iraq. If any debate is to be had, it is trivialized and void of any true substance. Pay close attention to the next "talking heads" you hear and try to look at the big picture.
I don't expect to get a neutral, unbiased report from Sean Hannity, nor from Bill O'Reilly anymore than I would expect to get that from Keith Olbermann, or Rachel Maddow. These people are not journalists, but commentators. The benefit in listening to commentary is that it gives the viewer the ability to judge while presenting something which for a traditional completely unbiased journalistic approach would quite difficult, if not impossible. How can you report on violations of the constitutional by an administration without appearing biased? What news should go unheard for fear of the appearance of bias?
If you're looking balance it is in abundance, but it will not be found in any single source.
I would highly recommend reading John Stossel's "The Truth About Media Bias" on reason.com. It's quite short and well worth 5 minutes of your time -- in my opinion.

They got Alan Jones told the truth about this Radical. The public isn't watching other news media, so if anyone is being BIAS is you!
"those named most frequently as the television news organization most trusted for accurate reporting in 2009 included: Fox News (30.0%), CNN (19.5%), NBC News (7.5%) and ABC News (7.5%). Fox News was also the television news organization trusted least. Just over one-quarter, 26.2%, named Fox News, followed by NBC News (9.9%), MSNBC (9.4%), CNN (8.5%), CBS News (5.3%) and ABC News (3.7%)."
