Poll: Fox News Best TV News Network

[Fury]

OP was from Newsmax.
'nough said.

Here's the link to the Poll Position article.

Read above and you'll find out that Poll Position was started by former CNN execs. Swing and a miss, crybaby.

Tingles is probably on suicide watch.

You have a link?  And I mean other than a comedian arguing with video clips? 

With all due respect.. those are real clips.. not like he doctored them up...just regular old clips of the foolery that is fox "news" (oh brother)  ... so if you are asking if he is "arguing" with actual footage and proof.. um.. i would go with yeah...

He (John Stewart) is no different than Rush Limbaugh or any other tool who argues with video clips.  Taking an unedited clip and arguing with it is still not putting things in their proper context.   

In any event, I asked for a link in support of Lurker's claim:

Considering how FAUX has already blatantly stated that they will lie and distort the news, can one even believe this "poll" to be accurate.

What do 4 out of 5 dentists say?

Turns out this his statement is false, as the info McWay and I posted shows. 

[LurkerNoMore]

I guess these blatant lies must be false too

or maybe the little oversight of putting a "D" after a Congressman's name when caught in a scandal.  Like Foley and Sanford.

Or maybe a little mix up like the increased crowd gathering based on old footage.

Yeah...  one can easily see that Fox does lie and deliberately twist the news.

And that happens on CNN and MSNBC.

The point is your claim that Fox fought for the right to lie about the news is bogus.

You sound like a mad liberal, who's upset because the left doesn't monopolize the media anymore.

Explain why, when it comes to election coverage, Fox is #1, even over the network broadcasts (ABC, CBS, NBC) and MSNBC is dog-dead LAST!!!

just because more people eat at McDonalds doesn't make Le Cirque inferior.

[Soul Crusher]

MSNBC is unwatchable 95% of the time.   

[MCWAY]

MSNBC would be the equivalent of a roach coach. Of course, responses like yours are typical speak to try and excuse why MSNBC and CNN are so sorry.

Ok.. Lib guest on Fox news says Nazi.
Girl host says "thats inflammatory"
Guy says "you say it all the time"
Girl says... "i watch fox news all the time and we dont use that language"
Jon Stewart puts together a montage of clips of fox news regulars and hosts... using Nazi...

So like... wheres the disconnect?
You either do it or you dont.. and if there is video evidence.. than you did it.

what would jesus watch

Definayely not a network that advocates endlessly for gay marriage, abortion, theft, and corruption.

This is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about.  In what context was the word "Nazi" being used in each clip?  I doubt his montage put all of those references in context.  

If someone is trying to make a point based on something someone else has said, why not get the person or the person's representative and ask them about it?  I'd find that much more convincing than someone arguing with a tape.

Also, he's a comedian.  Not exactly the kind of person I'd rely on for information.

you may be right about MSNBC but I have never seen CNN intentionally twist the news..they have made mistakes yes, but FOX is blatant in its partisanship

I think you might be adding liquor to that cell-tech of yours

CNN absolutely has a liberal bias. 

[andreisdaman]

CNN absolutely has a liberal bias. 

why do you think that?

[Dos Equis]

why do you think that?

Because it's true.  I see it in the headlines, their Palin and now Bachmann obsession, the stories they chose to cover and highlight and the ones they ignore, the conduct of their anchors and reporters, etc.  Sometimes it's subtle, sometimes it's blatant. 

[dario73]

Wait, wait, wait. Did someone just post that CNN does not have a liberal bias? HEHEHEHEHE!
They are no better than MSNBC.

[dario73]

this statement says differently

Appellate Court Rules Media Can Legally Lie.
By Mike Gaddy. Published Feb. 28, 2003
On February 14, a Florida Appeals court ruled there is absolutely nothing illegal about lying, concealing or distorting information by a major press organization. The court reversed the $425,000 jury verdict in favor of journalist Jane Akre who charged she was pressured by Fox Television management and lawyers to air what she knew and documented to be false information. The ruling basically declares it is technically not against any law, rule, or regulation to deliberately lie or distort the news on a television broadcast.

YOU are a damn retard. Seriously. You have surpassed Blacken as the stupidest person on this forum. Congratulations.

[tu_holmes]

What an ignorant thread... This is like arguing over which is worse.

The chicken you ate wasn't chicken... or the place you ate wasn't a restaurant.
