This was captured from FOX. A ludicrous non-story that is somehow a news alert.
Imagine if Fox was left-wing and used this same approach to “news.” It’s ridiculous. This is what we now have to deal with as a nation — useless media.
Juvenile, yes, but it makes the point.

Mr. Fusion — that is the most subtle, accurate chuckle of the morning!
#14, Malren
#11 – Way to miss the point, jackhole. But go ahead, you keep thinking it’s about “defending Fox” …
Let’s count the posts so far.
#1, off topic,
#2, off topic,
#3, The graphic is poorly phrased, but what is being reported is news. pro Fox
#4, So while Fox may be dumb in how they present it, the fact is, they may be right. pro Fox
#5, anti-Fox
#6, For the record I do enjoy watching Bill o’Reilly decidedly pro Fox
#7, sarcasm, pro-Fox
#8, Your bias is showing. pro-Fox
#9, off topic, still blaming Clinton for Bushes failures.
#10, weird analogy, defending Fox, I think.
#11, anti-Fox
#12, objective observation, leans anti-Fox
#13, objective defence, I don’t like Bill Maher either.
#14, decidely pro-Fox. Oh, that is you !!!
So, the score for the first 14 posts are:
Off topic 4
Pro-Fox 7
Anti-Fox 3
Now, if you believe this is about slamming ALL news outlets, then please post some examples of where the REAL news sources broadcast non-news news. But be prepared because I know there are at least 10 screw ups by Fox for every one you will find for the REAL news outlets.
“I know there are at least 10 screw ups by Fox for every one you will find for the REAL news outlets.”
Holy christ. What’s worse, that this idiot believes in his “real” news outlets or that he votes?
First off Fusion, and all you other ravaging anti-fox activists, I watch (I’m assuming other people in this thread do as well) about an hour of cable news a week. The exception is made for CNBC, which I watch during trading hours, & for Mad Money, along with the legendary C-SPAN. My news sources consists of The Economist, Janes Defense, Wall Street Journal, New York Times (occasionally), and the BBC World online, oh and of course several tech podcasts and non-fiction books. So calm down, take a step back before you start generalizing what it means if a person is “Pro-Fox”. So I like Bill O’Rielly, you probably like John Stewart and it is probably for the same reason, they are comical! Did you ever watch Cross-Fire on CNN when it was on? There’s a prime example of not “news coverage” but instead talking heads. By the way I love the statistic of how Fox News has more viewers than the other 3 cable news sources combined! Maybe their “conservative brainwashing” is really effective, but I doubt it there is probably another endogenous force in the model. Maybe you guys should do a research paper, but that would take more effort than a couple of broad, generalized statements.
#23, so instead of answering the challenge, you attack the messenger.
Fox is not a bona fide news source. They have no journalistic integrity at all. In short, they are a privately owned propaganda organ.
why is there such a burning hatred of fox news. (this is not aimed at you dvorak I remeber the story about the mic on in the bathroom at CNN you ran and many others ) I just want to know why it seems all liberals have such a hatred for fox news , I actually like it ,especially the morning show, and to me it seems that most of the time they live up to the fair and balanced theme. I always see a pundant from both sides and they both get to speak and only on very rare occasions have I seen the announcer on fox shut down the pundant and it is usually because they are spouting spin (and yes I have seen both sides get shut down not just democratic ) I watch CNN and only rarely do I see pundants from both sides( I like glenn beck though) and then there is the far out freaks on cnbc that just scream at any one without their view or simply hold up facemasks of the competition, and just seem to act off the wall.
also if FOX news is so bad why is it trouncing all other news outlets in ratings, to me it seems they are doing what the public likes, just not necessarily what the liberal left likes
Thank you Pmitchell, a voice of reason
24. “By the way I love the statistic of how Fox News has more viewers than the other 3 cable news sources combined! ”
This is a seriously frightening statistic, if true. Sean Hannity, is I think, the antichrist.
#20 Actually, moss, it was reported as “breaking news.” Furthermore, I was disgusted with the emphasis being placed upon what was obviously a bit of hysteria on the part of some people in Japan. But I refrained from making that comment because I could not be sure if it were MSNBC or CNN that was acting so foolish, and, unlike you, I don’t like making unsubstantiated charges.
But for the record, I saw the report only on MSNBC and CNN — Fox was a bit slow picking up the story and must have reported on it after I quit watching the news.
#22 LOL
The site needs a good stat manager.
#22 When you say pro or against Fox, are you talking about the president of Mexico?
good ol’ DU. An editor points out an absurdity (example: Fox news) and the dittoheads go into conniptions.
Here doggy: equal time ?
32. Thats a funny bit by Stewart. I stil think Hannity is a demon. How does he get his hair get that perfect?
After #3 this thread went to shit.
Oh, and I think Bill Maher sucks too. Does that make you feel better?
He sucked long before his current liberal streak, but I appreciate your attempt to get out on a limb.
#18 – *Laughing hard* Touché!
32 Here doggy: equal time ?
Damn, you beat me to it.
