Krypsyn: Also, I also find it amusing that among those bashing Fox News in this thread, at least those that I have noticed, none is actually from the U.S. Do they show Fox News in Austria and Slovakia? I honestly want to know if you are actually basing your bashing on substance, or if you are just parroting what you have heard Americans saying. I take no stand on whether or not Fox News is full of crap (I really hate that 'my cable news source is better than yours!' debate), I just want to know how you formed your opinion on the matter. It would better inform me on how much credence I should give your other opinions.
Spent a lot of time in the US (mostly California - Bay Area), and have watched it for myself. It's definitely getting worse over the years.

I don't see how they can claim to be a "News" channel, when it's all opinion (Even when they do report news, it's not as a factual program, but they dissect it and opine it, and then twist it to their "[Christian] GOD IS GOOOOOD!", or anything arch-conservative, middle-aged, middle-class, white male-only stance...). Definitely not a balanced source of information.... :\

That's cool. I just wonder how many Americans have even watched more than 30 minutes of their 'opposing viewpoint media outlet' before jumping on that hate bandwagon. This goes for folks that bash MSNBC, CNN, NPR, or whatever the heck, as well as Fox. From my perspective, 99% of news stories have a bias, regardless of which outlet they are released on. This is not an indictment, it is just how human nature works; we all have bias, and we like to be around and work with those that hold the same world view.

As far as Fox News goes, I like Bret Baier and Shepard Smith. The rest of Fox News, especially the prime time line-up, is mainly good for lulz. I like the CNN morning show and Wolf Blitzer. I like CNBC better than Fox Business Network for my economic news. I am currently, and have been for a while, boycotting NPR for their treatment of Juan Williams. The only major outlet that I just don't like entirely is MSNBC, but I think that is because I can't stand Chris Matthews or Keith Oberman. Those two are sort of the other side of the coin for Fox's Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity.

There we go, that will probably get everyone's goat. But hey, that is my talent: making sure everyone objects to what I say! Feh. :)
I agree with the TC, in fact the illuminati's plans got thwarted with this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FApMGh40mY

Lone3wolf: The ONLY way (borne out by at least the last 1,500 years of history in that region - YOU do KNOW about the history of that region, don't you?) the Middle East would allow that, would be over their dead bodies. Hence the "Extermination" and "genocide" references I made.
Don’t lump me together with them so hastily, you feeble-minded dogmatic. And you didn’t see these people getting wiped out because of their oh-so-fierce resistance during the years of oppression by US-installed dictators, did you? Truly, you are among the biggest fucktards in this thread in your very own and special way, Lone3wolf.
You want to know who the hacker was who brought down PSN?


SONY!

now they will can claim that they need to add a subscription fee to properly upgrade their security. The money they will make in years of subscription fees far out weights the millions they lost in the outage

Same thing as 9/11 right? This kind of thing happens all the time

PS- Google "The Reichstag fire" if u want to read about another good one

Not really ;)
I, at least, offered proofs of my positions and claims. You two .... just name-called.
And before YOU start, opinion, and unrelated subjects are NOT proofs ;)
Hence my calls for you to go back to school and actually learn something about critical thinking, and the other assorted subjects you're trying to pass yourself off as experienced in

:rolleyes:

I have never seen any serious proof from your side. And accepting everything you get thrown into your face from the mass media is critical thinking ?
So . . . does anybody know if . . . when you create an account . . . can you select any region regardless of your true location???

Read both the Popular Mechanics debunking and 9/11 conspiracy theorist psychology links posted earlier.

calling someone conspiracy theorist is ad-hominem and thus avoiding any real discussion. And who wrote for Popular Mechanics ?

You should probably look up 'ad-hominem,' too, so as to no longer misuse it.

Hopefully you'll grow up and get some of those 'critical thinking' skills everyone's talking about. Hopefully. I remember I said the same thing about the Popular Mechanics debunking (also without having read it) when I was 16 and addicted to conspiracy theories.
