if FOX news had existed throughout history...

This ought to be good, go ahead and name ANY objective news organization. Specifically a US based one. MTV news.

[Khardis]

MTV news. haha.

[MikePizzoff]

haha. I was actually hoping for you to take me seriously.

This ought to be good, go ahead and name ANY objective news organization. Specifically a US based one. There are none, except Fox.

[Khardis]

There are none, except Fox. C'mon you KNOW you want to say MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, etc.. you KNOW you want to.

Khardis, Is there anything you don't want to argue about? You raise some interesting points, and you are obviously not a dumb person, but must you always be so contrary? To answer your question, of course there are no fair media news sources, they are paid for by advertising. Therefore, they all have special interests involved in what is reported. I think the reason that FOX rubs many people the wrong way is that it is wholly populated by talking heads that jump angrily onto any subject and smear it into thier own political bent. No different from the others you say? Key word angrily. FOX is the most angry, inflamitory news station out there. It appeals to the middle aged angry white suburbanite. And apparently, there are a lot of them out there.

Pretending they are the only one who is "angry" would mean you've never watched Kieth Olberman. He doesn't even pretend to be objective.
