fair and balanced fox news

I repeat, they are not fair and balanced. They are biased which is fine. They should just remove that wording.

They are biased and fair and balanced. The reason is that they provide both sides of each issue by airing debates with participants from both sided. I can't think of a single issue promoted by the left that hasn't been aired by Fox. Biased? sure. Fair and balanced? Also true.

Not to mention that FOX presents both sides of the argument (with an admittedly right bias) whereas other liberally biased media only report one side of the argument while the mainstream media pretend they are not biased when they actually are. So, FOX News is a right biased media that is fair and balanced but the left refuses to admit that the liberally biased media are not fair and balanced at all.
 
Carleen is our new pbrauer. Fox News rents a free apartment up there in her brain.
 
So, in the OP, the question had to do with whether or not the president is a joke. We are agreed, are we not, that he is indeed a joke?!?!?!

Well it does appear balanced when only one side is ever allowed. (Your side) No one is opposing it so it must be balanced.

In pursuit of, once again, 'The Fairness Doctrine' ?

Can't succeed on their own in the marketplace of ideas, so must force equal air time on the 'successful' broadcasts? :mrgreen:

The hardest part about pushing propaganda is desensitizing people to it in the first place.

Hmm.
Claims of bigot - desensitized
Claims of racist - desensitized
Claims of sexist - desensitized
Claims of islamophobia - desensitized
Claims of homophobia - desensitized
Claims of white privilege - desensitized
Claims of gender identity - desensitized

I think they are hurting themselves and their goals by over use.
