For those who are trying to spin the ratings game, i.e., lie by avoiding the whole story, check out TVNewser, the web site of TV ratings for current figures. You folks on the progressive left are just soooooooooo lame.

It is amazing what wishful thinking can do. Fox ‘News’ parted company with ‘facts’ when they went to court seeking permission to lie to their viewers and that is what they have been doing ever since. Fox is nothing but an incredibly bad joke at best and a harmful shill for the Republican (tea party) at worst.

Have you ever SEEN Al Jazeera? It’s good solid journalism. Yes, it has a bias (owned by the Qatar government) but if people can get over their prejudice and actually WATCH it, they’ll find a serious news sender that does great reporting and isn’t afraid to criticize east and west.

I’ve gotta admit that both are biased, but during the fiscal cliff thing. fox went haywire. They just criticized EVERYTHING Obama proposed to avert the crisis. Most people just wanted to hear actual news about what was going on. We’ll just have to wait n see how the viewership holds, because most Republicans are die-hard. I’m afraid. The ones I know are.

Well, I can probably answer this one having done a lot of reading here and I can tell you the gripe is probably more about my calling MSNBC, a left leaning network, biased and something close to a Fox News for the left. I can say with 100% certainty that this is a case of liberal hypocrisy, which is typical on this site in particular.

Wait, wait, wait. FOX “News” has “depth of personality & intelligence?” And even funnier, “facts?” Really? Who are you talking about, Steve Doocey? Sean Hannity? Gretchen Carlson? Dick Morris? Very fact-based, intelligent, unemotional folks you’ve got there. Puh-leeze.

And Faux is a source of facts and honest unbiased commentary Donna? MSNBC is more objective, but also biased and a counterbalance to the GOP propaganda machine that you are so fond of.
The only thing that Faux’s top ratings confirm is HL Menckens statement that
“No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the american public”.
The least biased and most accurate American television news and commentary is on The PBS Newshour and Charlie Rose, which is why the need support and why the GOP wants to kill PBS.
Appearantly facts have a liberal bias.

While MSNBC does clearly lean to the left, they are objective and will call out Dems and the POTUS when they screw up. They immediately torched the President after the first debate, not later on like most liberal media did. Fox News lies consistently and that is the difference.

Besides being very angry, you appear to be justifying and/or supporting the idea of continued bias in network news.
