I admit being naive, but why does anyone go on Fox anymore? |
|
They are like a bunch of mimi-me's of Palin, just stirring up their self-righteous pots and are so incredibly beyond disrespectful. If all self-respecting democrats would just say no more, I think it would do a world of good. They get ratings by unleashing their horrible bobble-heads, as they yell at, interrupt, and belittle everyone who does not march lock-step behind their slant - why does anyone go on there.
Watching what happened with Ed Shultz today, I just think it's time to write them off completely.

Good question.

6. If you're naive... then you figure rational discussions can be had with the other side. |
|
whichever side you happen to hail from.

8. It's not Fox that scares me, it's their viewers. |
|
Fox and the radio hate shows have created a violent political underclass the likes of which I have never seen. What makes it frustrating is that the sheeplike Fox viewers are speaking and acting angrily on the basis of false beliefs poured into their unquestioning minds 24/7 by the only sources they trust.
This commitment to false beliefs enters a final, ultimate phase as Palin, explicitly found guilty of violating an Alaska ethics law, chirps that she was completely vindicated, with no ethical wrongdoing found, to wild cheers from her mindless, clueless fans. Thinking people can only stare, mouths agape. W? T? F?
As long as Fox "News" and the radio hatemongers continue to drip poison into the veins of America, the country will continue to weaken as it descends toward civil war. A battle of civilizations is being created as we watch and listen. Sadly, it's a battle with no winners.

10. I keep hoping that Dobbs, Buchanan, and Joe Scab all decide |
|
to go to Fox. Oh yeah and Gregory too. That way I can ignore them entirely. Then MSNBC could hire real journalists in the style of Cronkite or Rather or someone of that caliber to report all the news (international too). Leave Matthews, Olberman, Maddow as they are and maybe have a couple of intelligent conservatives (oxymoron?) to balance out the programming. I'd watch that all the time!

11. I agree. Democrats and all progressive folks should NOT go on Fox anymore |
|
Let them spew and marginalize that 'network'.
