Let's say your user name is "Forward to Death" and you say "Big3, you're an *******." And then lets same my username is DecentCaringPerson and I say "Forward to Death, you're an *******." We're both guilty to the same degree, but I parade around here pretending I'm a model, upstanding citizen. Maybe you don't have a problem with that, hell most people probably wouldn't. But on the issue of who is a more honest person, I'd be worse because I'm pretending I'm something I'm not. Chris Matthews might say "Republicans are morons." Bill O'Reilly might say "Democrats are morons." But only one of them isn't pretending to be an honest broker. As for splitting hairs, i think you're reaching deep into your "technically" satchel to pull out some nonsense to save your favorite network. They need to stop pretending they aren't bias. Even you've said that yourself. |

More logical fallacies. I don't even watch Fox News, just because I'm actually making a fair assessment of the networks' biases, and you aren't, does not mean I watch Fox. This is called a deductive fallacy, you're on a roll!
I read articles, watch occasional news programming once a blue moon when thats what someone's watching, all of which are biased. I do research of my own that are based on facts. Also, once again you can't supply an answer as to how hiding your bias makes you more biased. I'm still waiting. |

I'll admit I'm on a roll when you admit what you're on.
If a network says its Fair. If a network says its balance, and by your own admission news sources can't be either then you tell me how a network that say is it fair, and that it is balance isn't being deceptive with regard to its level of bias. |

I never argued against that, you brought it into the equation for absolutely no reason.
It is deceptive of the network. The network actually had protocol to be "independent" registered, I don't know if that's still the case. O'Reilly himself is openly biased, as is Beck and Hannity. You're going off a corporate slogan rather than the actual personalities. I admit Fox News' slogan is misleading, while MSNBC's slogan is open about their liberal agenda, but this doesn't apply to the actual amount of bias. |

I watch all sectors of politics from CNN, MSNBC and FOX NEWS to get different views though generally I am a Democrat.

I know Fox News is a right wing organization but it has good people. Not all of them are bad. Bill O'Reilly is one person I would risk hanging out with. At least he tries not to be backward thinking like Sean Hannity.

True. Though, I get furious with the lack of research for the stories they show on the air and the falsifying information they give off to the world, so it's difficult to really take any of the people seriously in a civil manner. Not to say all the people who are involved with Fox News are bad, but it's only a matter of time before the people who are involved won't be taken seriously for anything, including politics and current affairs.
