Easy -- watch FNC for one day. Every show for one day.
After the idiots on Fox and Friends wrap it up and they roll out that empty headed blond, you'll start to hear little phrases and story spins over and over...
Start writing them down and adding them up-- how many times during the day do you hear the respectable news people :roll: on FNC repeat the same phrase or story spin...
I've done this. It's scary.
Hey Haznut the last time I checked there is this thing called the 1st Adm unless Mr. Obama and Queen nacey are trying to get that throw out also.
The one opposite that of Tea Party members.My side?
What's my side?
FAIL
I accept your contention.
Should this be in conspiracy theories? :lol:
Really? Please lets see your notes..... Scan em take a pic and post them complete with dates and times.....
Sounds like OCD my friend.
No, it's called being in the business, my friend.
I worked for Fox (feature films division) back during FNCs inception. And I watched my company's new network (and still do periodically), but when I first heard the tag line "Fair and Balanced" I asked some friends in the news division what that was all about... Their exact words: "That's how they want to package it."
Do you get it? It's marketing. It's selling a conservative editorial network as news. Their most popular, highest rated programs are News-Based OPINION Shows. There was an untapped market and they cornered it at the tail end of the Clinton years.
Nothing wrong with opinion and hearing someone's point of view, but when you call it 'News' or the when people watching it believe it is News because they don't know any better, never went to college, have no critical thinking skills, then you end up with the lowest common denominator getting paranoid and grossly misinformed.
Don't be cute, I don't have any notes. You can tune in and out throughout the day and hear the hear the same things. I challenge you to listen with an open mind. Listen for the phrases repeated over and over during the so-called straight news shows and the opinion shows.
There are people who only watch Beck and Hannity and think their getting News. Very, very dangerous...
My side?

You're response to the OP is a vague attack on my political stand based on what? That's pretty feeble...:roll:

As is my post calling the backwards, brainless, fringe idiots out for being the worst examples of partisan politics.
Yes, but don't "rock the boat!"Is it impossible for you to start a thread that isn't a partisan diatribe? Your side is just as ****ing stupid, you know...
Allow me to sum up your "stand" with your own word immediately following this 'wha....who me' response....
And with your inflammatory, name calling, you would be what exactly?
No, your stand is clear. Moderate? NOT.

Message to J-mac, from J-Mac:
Inflammatory, name calling... I think that's redundant.
I guess from the far-right, it's hard to even have a clue about what the pragmatic center is. And it must be a hard pill to swallow that us Moderates find the far-right to be a bunch of teabagging douche bags who can't think for themselves, scared of their own shadow.
I would say the far-left is a bunch of wimps who sacrifice pragmatism for emotion.
The pragmatic center is some myth liberals trot out during elections. Keep towing the party line there ... I think the real douch bags who can't think for themselves do the same thing - tow the party line.
The one's who can get off their asses and use their Constitutional rights to assemble and make themselves heard.
Riddle me this, Ockham -- who paid for the 40 buses?
Simple question: WHO paid for the 40 buses?
Come on.
Own it.
Own it.
Choke on it.
It's bull**** corporate funded astroturfing... PR campaigns funded by wealthy special interests... Spontaneous my ass.
God, if people would just get better informed before they open their mouths...
Here's some light reading for ya, sport: Americans for Prosperity
You know who's taking away your freedom to think? Koch.
:2wave:

Yes, it's actually a picture of holocaust bodies. These people have no shame and no brains.
Ever heard the term sexist pig?
Do you mean the "empty headed blond" that graduated from Syracuse with a degree in Political Science, got her J.D. degree from Albany Law School, was editor of the Albany Law Review, and was a practicing attorney before joining Fox???
Is that dumb blond you're talking about ???
Ever heard the term sexist pig?
Lemme guess, Beck has been harping on Mao lately... Am I right?
I'll say it before... the tea partiers have no united cause. They all come out of the woodwork protesting about an array of different things. They have no coherency.
Seeing those signs is disturbing. I'm not sure which is worse, the fact that they think the rest of the country takes them seriously, or the fact that their signs are all talking points from Fox news. Have the news conglomerates risen to religious proportions or something?

She sure didn't go to journalism school--doesn't have clue about reporting news.
