Fox drops the ball

    Fox, as previously mentioned, has been wall-to-wall with this. If their opinion shows aren't covering it to the extent one wants, then head on over to MSNBC or whatever. But, again, these are the opinion shows. That's not "Fox Dropping the Ball." That's "Hosts of Opinion Shows I Do Not Agree with Dropping the Ball."

    This begs the question if you are not satisfied with Fox why are you watching?

    It's just someone wanting to pick nits with the opposing party, just for the sake of picking nits.

    Uh, whatever. If you want to call yourself a journalist, then do journalism. Is that really so much to ask?

    Well, since the gasbags on your side excoriated him for speaking out too soon on Haiti and allegedly dividing the country ... I'd say you're trying to have it both ways.

    So they can bitch about it. And call everyone associated with it "stupid." Or make fun of the blonde female anchors. Or maybe they just like to watch Fox News so they can "catch" somebody in a bad moment. Or they hope to witness an instance that they can take completely out of context for further bashing fun. I don't agree with a lot of the crap on the opinion shows, but the Fox hammering just gets out of hand.

    OK, so on a journalism board, we can't analyze FNC on the basis of its journalism? It doesn't really matter why F-Hack was watching.

    Of course we can analyze. But that's not why this thread was started.

    Since you've got your ESPN finely tuned, care to tell us who's going to win tomorrow's games?

    Yes, please. I lost badly today. I need a few guaranteed winners.

    There is nothing FOX News does that is not politically slanted and motivated. There is no discussion of it on the basis of journalistic content -- it has none. It is part of an ongoing effort on the part of a fascist billionaire foreigner to destroy journalism in the United States (as well as the rest of the English-speaking world), by reducing the discourse to tits, ass and monkey-shitflinging.

    An AFC team and an NFC team. :D

    But there was an immediate tone to your thread, obviously. And you've made your politics quite clear elsewhere. And that's fine. But this was started to bash Fox. And I don't think if Rachel Maddow had "dropped the ball" on covering Haiti, you would have started a thread. That's all.
