For a few years, Fox offered a perfectly rational conservative viewpoint. Then its own leadership decided to sell out. Sadly, the only thing needed to "sabotage" Fox News, is the truth, shining a little light in dark places.suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07599102235797825599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-5266778839879967692011-03-28T21:41:07.901-05:002011-03-28T21:41:07.901-05:00Sure sounds to me like they intend to attack the m...Sure sounds to me like they intend to attack the messenger, rather than the message.

I get most of my news from regional newspapers that cover both side of most issues. I have noting against editorial content, as long as it is so labeled. I strongly object to distorted and patently untrue information being "reported" as fact, and I don't care who does it on behalf of which ideology. I support ANY effort to expose lies in the news media. I personally know dozens if not hundreds of people who despise Fox News, and most of them are not liberals (except perhaps, when compared to, say, Hitler.) Oddly enough, most of them are of above average intelligence. <br /><br />Liberal, conservative, or whatever: do you honestly object to the concept of researching and exposing the lies and private agendas of ANY news broadcasting organization? Please, feel free to let us know where you stand on the real issue. Or is it easier and more fun for you to make erroneous assumptions and toss around vague insults?

Once they start focusing on one side or the other, then they simply become another political action group. That can't be good for the larger discussion and debate as a whole.<br /><br />If media are going to be partisan, then they should do so openly, like newspapers used to do. "The Finney County Democrat" or "River City Republican" let you know up front what you were reading and you subscribed accordingly.<br /><br />LittleRed1Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-68802129075715158372011-03-28T06:11:48.975-05:002011-03-28T06:11:48.975-05:00As a raving radical moderate, I see nothing wrong ...As a raving radical moderate, I see nothing wrong with investing time and money in exposing Fox for what it is - not news. Divisive, extremist propaganda has its place in the public discourse, but it has no business calling itself Fact rather than Opinion, and hiding behind the cloak of "fair and balanced" journalism. Every lie told by every news outlet SHOULD be exposed, along with the ideology the people behind the lies. <br /><br />I would be disappointed in Media Matters only if it were to deny its true agenda. I find this honesty refreshing. Sadly, Media matters will get its hand dirty, because that what happens when one shovels manure.suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07599102235797825599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-30928880201457827502011-03-28T05:39:38.230-05:002011-03-28T05:39:38.230-05:00Liberalism is a mental disorder.Liberalism is a mental disorder.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
