Re: The influence of Fox News

That's part of the point -- the larger media world is allowing itself to be propagandized by a partisan media outlet.  If the mainstream media really wanted to report news, they'd report exactly what I just stated up above, in that context.

Re: The influence of Fox News

Fox creates controversy, then the MSM "covers the controversy". Fox gets a huge multiplier.


"and it's not surprising that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

Hm... "America's Newsroom" covering Obama's "czar problem" while playing the Soviet national anthem.
Sounds like a legitimate news organization to me! roll

So res, are you going to let us know that "America's Newsroom" isn't a news show, but an opinion show as well?


I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.
