@Dreamer
He seems like a moderate. Liberal seems to strong.
To Matthew,
“FNC is exactly as terrible as MSNBC, except they reach a wider audience with their awfulness.”
In my town, the channels are next to each other.
@Kendall
Yeah, I think everyone pretty much knows that Fox Noise pesents their news from the conservative viewpoint and MSNBC presents their news from Liberal viewpoint.
The difference is that MSNBC doesn’t go around saying claiming that they are “Fair & Balanced” the way Fox News does.
I didn’t mean FNC is available in more households, I mean it has a larger (and more dedicated) audience.
(it is available in more households, but not to a consequential degree. you get the point. I was talking about impact and popularity, not availability. cheers)
(..)
@Kendall “That’s why I said FNC should ditch the “Fair & Balanced” mantra and come up with something more conservative, like…”Fox News: The Right Place For News”. Because, I don’t think a single person truly believes FNC is anything but right-leaning”
-Very well said.
@ Mark2
I think that’s the real difference between the two networks. MSNBC owns their ideology.
Would you as a left-leaning gent dislike FNC less if they got rid of their Fair & Balanced mantra and were more honest about their content? I would respect such a move. (I was impressed when MSNBC made their viewpoint obvious).
Cheers! I mean no harm, alot of people like your imput.
Myself included. haaha
Imput = ?
I call it my own slang.

Thank you, Dreamer.
A song most people will not understand.
@USA8888 Benghazi smells like a big cover-up with the media’s help. Where are the survivors of Benghazi ?? Why doesn’t congress know who they are ?? Why haven’t we heard from them ? What was really going on at Benghazi simple question the media could investigate and try to find out. Of course Obama stated yesterday this is the most transparent administration ever. It took months but we now know it was terrorist attack they knew in real time, had video feed of the attack rumored to be from a drone. Whitehouse tells us yesterday that they didn’t call the Libyan leader until the next day after the attack just before his trip to Vegas. Now they say nothing could have been done to save them. MMMMM they love to use drones, but couldn’t use one the terrorist at Benghazi. Seven hour attack and it looks like they didnt even try to help. We have seen those photos in the war room, on Air force one making the call and even came up with a picture of him shooting skeet, but no pictures of him taking some kind of action in Benghazi. MMMM I wonder why ????
@mikeyO
36 diplomatic facilities have been attacked since 1958(35 of those since 71) how come we don’t have more information on all of those. It’s a coverup for Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton, Bush Jr and Obama
The way the right wing blog world treats Benghazi, you think that having a US embassy attacked has only happened once in the history of the country. The funny thing was the right wing machine put so much effort into Benghazi during the election thinking it was the issue that somehow would bring Obama down, they forgot to attack Obama on something that would have been a much easier target to attack him(ie the economy)
Thursday’s cable top 100. FNC & CNN only cable news channels on the list.
FNC 2 shows & CNN 1 show.
Swamp People the number 1 show.
Wednesday’s cable top 100.
FNC 2 shows on the list.
Only cable news channel to make the list. FNC is on fire.
Now to finally put this Colbert & Stewart vs Bill O (any cable news show) deal to bed.
I searched for Colbert & Stewart shows here. They NEVER made it on any of the ratings.
Ouch that’s gotta hurt.
Then i searched for cable news shows here.
I found cable news show on the list from time to time. So to sum things up – Cable news does make the list that Colbert & Stewart make daily, but Colbert & Stewart NEVER makes the list on daily cable news ratings.
Ouch! That has to really really hurt.
