erm...no. just like air america, nobody wants to listen to liberals. numbers prove that. nice try though. you are wrong as usual.CameronPoe wrote:
Fox has the highest because there are many liberal channels but only one douchebag channel. Also, people like me like to tune in from time to time to check out what the douchebags are spouting off at.[TUF]Catbox wrote:

Try using common sense. There is really only one right wing channel, there are many left wing (by American standards) channels. The lefty audience is split, the righty audience isn't. Add up all the lefties ratings and compare that to Fox. MSNBC and CNN together alone outrate Fox. Did you watch Fox spend every minute lambasting Obama and the Democrats only to have Obama elected President? QED.usmarine wrote:

No cam, it was proven that Fox had WAY more balance when it came to guests than ANY other news program during the election run-up. thats why people watch it. you use common sense for once.
If FOX News has "WAY more balance" when it comes to guests then American news really is in bad shape.usmarine wrote:

They watched it and they handed Obama a landslide electoral college victory. lol. Do you want me to dredge up some of the bullshit I saw on it in reference to the Democrats over the last few months?usmarine wrote:

"According to Nielsen Media Research, Fox News averaged 3.4 million viewers in prime time last week, beating out TBS (3.3 million), USA (2.8 million), and ESPN (2.6 million) for the top spot. CNN placed fifth, averaging 2.4 million viewers in prime time, while MSNBC placed ninth, averaging 1.6 million viewers in prime time."
Lefty: CNN + MSNBC = 2.4 + 1.6 = 4 million
Righty: Fox = 3.4 million
Have you heard of Mathematics usmarine? Would you like to apologise for being wrong again? Anyone with a brain can see Fox's bias. It isn't some big secret. Fox even parodied themself in their own show - The Simpsons - where the Democrats came up on screen with devils horns.

CNN is more mainstream. I wouldn't say that every viewer is a lefty. However, you could say that Fox is a love hate relationship. I doubt that everyone watching Fox is a Neo. I'm sure John Stewart watches just for material . You know exactly what you are getting with Fox.

What makes you think there isnt balance? I count just as many lefties and libs on fox as I do righties during interviews and panel discussions. what do you want? robots?Braddock wrote:

Anytime I've ever seen FOX they have some idiot who couldn't argue their way out of a wet paper bag representing the opposing side of the debate and even then someone like O'Reilly (oops, forgot he isn't apparently real news even though is show is broadcast on the FOX NEWS STATION) just shouts over them when they try to make a point. FOX also cut microphones when they don't like what the guest is saying - very transparent and balanced!usmarine wrote:

Face it, televised American news sucks.
Get what through his skull? You erroneously claimed that nobody wanted to listen to liberals in the media when in fact if you add up the viewer ratings of two of the main left-leaning News stations they beat FOX's rating. You were wrong, just admit it.usmarine wrote:

Don't worry, I'll get back on your mom asap.
I probably get everything you get and more. As a matter of fact I can login to my dvr at work, set it to record the BBC, pick up some eggs on the way home, and hurl them at the BBC programming when I get home.Braddock wrote:

I don't mean your access to televised news or your television broadcasting system... just the American news networks themselves. They all seem so biased in one direction or another.Kmarion wrote:

Who would be considered by all sides of the political spectrum to be a non-biased news source? Is there such a network?
And we get Fox news/ABC/Other shit from across the water. Though I doubt anyone watches it, unless they want a giggle.Kmarion wrote:

The local stations aren't nearly as bad. Cable news is just entertainment. It's not my personal source for objective journalism.Braddock wrote:

I did? I said MSNBC was terribly left. I called CNN the clinton news network cuz they sucked his crank for 8 years. Would you like to prove the statements that I made?Braddock wrote:

Bias, and just really, really awful...
