Fox News sux: Bill O'Reilly sux (9-11 video) Fox News sux: Bill O'Reilly sux (9-11 video)

You posted 6 opinion shows, none of which are news broadcasts. Of course they are going to appeal heavily to the audience that shares the opinion of the show.

I posted statistics about entire networks.

Where can independents and democrats go to get pretty much unbiased news about the world?
Any station other than fox.

Where can a republican go to reinforce their fascism and bigotry?
Only one place, fox.

Since republicans make up about half of America it would only make sense that they are all going to say Fox is the best while the intelligent people of the nation who get there news from multiple sources will have differing opinions on their favorite news source.
So don't you think it would make more sense to say fox is the most trusted among republicans? Yaaaaa, probably, huh?

LOL

However you want to spin it. Obviously the other networks "opinion" shows; appeal to a more diverse audience. Unlike Fox, whose "opinion" shows are watched by a much much larger conservative audience.

Read the entire report you posted, don't pick and chose.

The stats are from the same article! Opinion shows on Fox ONLY appeal to conservative audiences...that is a major problem, if you are "fair and balanced"; or if u want respect in journalism.

Maybe you and Bill should put on some women lingerie and report news for a new show! And while your at it, sexually harass some female staff members. And don't forget to insult a 9-11 victims son, father and mother on your great station. Give me a break. Obama haters, O'Reilly lovers...such hyprocrites. If Obama dressed in womens clothes or sexually harass a staff member, Fox's friends would be talking about it for the next century.

Like a typical Fox defender, you have avoided the topic and trying to cause a distraction. Comment on the video! Or is it impossible for you to admit fault. I would love to hear you defend the video; not try and take all attention away from it! It is apparent you get your discussion skills from watching Fox. I feel sorry for anyone that has to be surrounded by such a close-minded person.

You also fail to point out how Republican tend to get their news MOSTLY from Fox; whereas Democrats and Independents are more equally spread across the board.

Anyway, Comment on the video and stop trying to create a distraction from the reality of how big an ass Bill O'Reilly is.

Where in the video does O'Reilly say that Glick claims 9/11 was planned/orchestrated by Bush? O'Reilly said Glick blamed Bush and thought Bush was responsible for the attacks, which Glick DID say.

And lol at the person who thinks ABC CBS NBC etc news is fair and balanced

Fox News News=balanced

Fox News Opinion shows=not balanced

Maybe you should watch the video more carefully, he never said that at all. Quote for reference what he said; don't spin his words to suit your argument.

In any case, I wish you would stop referring to the show as "Fox News." That just helps confuse people even more. We need to refer to it as "Fox Entertainment" and Bill as an "entertainer" not a "journalist." Regardless of how much you hate Fox or Bill you can't say that he isn't a great entertainer on a very successful network because the ratings prove that he is. I'll give him that, he deserves it. Just for the love of [insert the highest power you believe in here] do not call this mother fu#*er a journalist. Thanks.

YA RLY


at like 1:50ish he says Bush I was responsible for training the poeple who killed his father


around 3:50-4:00ish O'Reilly says that Afghanistan people killed Glick's father. Glick responds "no they didn't" and then says "what about George Bush I, who as director of CIA directed 100,000 mujhadin" and then O'Reilly cuts him off because he's a d***.


And btw Glick and Franken spun O'Reilly's words to suit their argument too.

stupid argument. the united states doesn't have a single mainstream liberal news outlet in any media. democrats in the US aren't leftists, they're just not as far right as the republicans.
11-08-2010 , 04:09 AM
but o'reilly is a disgusting human being.

lol

politics are such a joke; it's so ridiculous how absorbed everyone gets in all the propaganda.

how about you sit back chill the **** out think some things through and try to live life in a meaningful way that promotes good & positivity and that helps others around you. treat yourself, those around you and your surroundings well thereby making this world a better place..

or you can all squabble amongst each other like ****ing chickens! lol!!!

actually yeah that sounds better, let's NOT get anything done.. rather we can all bitch and moan about who's doing what wrong and how bad someone / something else that's different is so much worse than our own personal views... how ****ing pretentious lol...

If you want to find out who is "fair and balanced", try a little experiment. Check a couple Fox News Channel shows that have a panel discussion, and see how many liberals are on the panel. If there are 4-5 members on the panel, there usually 1-2 liberals or Democrats.

Then check any PBS or NPR show with a panel discussion, and see how many are conservative/Republican/Libertarian. If there are 4-5 members on the panel, there are usually 0 conservatives on the panel. The most recent panel discussion I listened to on NPR, a couple weeks before the election, was 5 or 6 to 0.

There are several liberals that are on Fox quite regularly, either as interviewees or as part of a panel. Offhand I can think of Al Sharpton, Kristin Powers, Alan Combes, and Juan Williams. Geraldo Rivera has his own show and is conservative on some issues, but also quite stongly liberal on others (especially immigration). Mara Liasson is the national political correspondent for NPR, and she is also a Fox panel regular.

Who is more fair and balanced? Fox News Channel, and it's not even close.

Spirited political debate has a long history in the United States. People turned out in droves, and stood for several hours, to watch the Lincoln-Douglas debates. And political campaigning is, if anything, more civil than it used to be. From Wikipedia:

"The United States presidential election of 1884 featured excessive mudslinging and personal acrimony."

"On July 21, the Buffalo Evening Telegraph reported that Cleveland had fathered a child out of wedlock, that the child had gone to an orphanage, and that the mother had been driven to an asylum. Cleveland's campaign decided that candor was the best approach to this scandal: they admitted that Cleveland had formed an “illicit connection” with the mother and that a child had been born and given the Cleveland surname. They also noted that there was no proof that Cleveland was the father, and claimed that, by assuming responsibility and finding a home for the child, he was merely doing his duty. Finally, they showed that the mother had not been forced into an asylum; her whereabouts were unknown. Blaine's supporters condemned Cleveland in the strongest of terms, singing "Ma, Ma, Where's my Pa?" (After Cleveland's victory, Cleveland supporters would respond to the taunt with: "Gone to the White House, Ha, Ha, Ha.") However, the Cleveland campaign's approach worked well enough and the race remained close through Election Day."

If you watch the video and agree with fox news as a legit broadcasting "news" network, please comment on the video. I would be interested in hearing how you think this is legitimate for a news network.

If anyone brings up my dead father or living mother when I am trying to make a point, I would never be able to keep my cool the way this guy does. Extremely narrowed minded how Bill O'Reilly assumes he knows what the guys father and mother would feel.

As far as legitimate news broadcasting goes, any respected journalism school will tell you fox news is irresponsible journalism.
I agree

Why does your country think so highly of Hillary Clinton to make her almost president, then by collusion the #1 Diplomat of the USA, as Sec of State---a position which must be given to a person of integrity and respect? Did she not interview several times during her campaign, claiming that she WAS SHOT AT BY SNIPER FIRE in BOSNIA.....only to be later proven a total LIAR in videotape from that event? Someone ought to post THAT video, of your GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL. Reporters, and opinion-makers are only that. How dishonest are America's leaders in POWER?
