Well let's see they do seem to report the news that CNN, and MSNBC forgot as well as all the news they report. Does Fox lean to the right? Maybe. But Colmes doesn't lean right, Geraldo Rivera doesn't lean right. Are they a spin machine for the Republicans, I don't think so. Does the Communist News network (CNN) lean left? I don't think there is any doubt. Does MSNBC lean left, even one of their own has complained about it. So is fox fair and balanced? If one slightly right leaning station can balance out to left wing stations and the major networks, then they make the news fair and balanced.

They are saying we will get some high tides and some rain. They say nothing to worry about at this time.

FOX is a defacto cog in the GOP propoganda machine, right in there w/Liddy and Limbaugh.

Aren't ya'll just a little over the top? MSNBC isn't that bad.

I actually watch MSNBC most of the time b/c I love Pat Buchanan and Joe Scarborough. Olbermann is a joke for a journalist and Matthews has really gone goofy lately with his lack objectivity. What is funny is that MSNBC has decided to go far left the past few years and they still come up ranking third in the ratings game. Fox beats them most of the time by 3-4 times the audience.

I watch them b/c they focus on politics more than the other cable news channels. But I am able to decipher through the bias and liberal influence b/c I am Hannitized AND a Ditto-Head!

Re: PMSNBC does it again...

I like Olbermann's humor and I actually think Matthews is fairly balanced most of the time. I've seen him regularly grill Dems and Repubs pretty hard and not let them get away with too much baloney. I'm not a Ditto-head any more, but I am able to cut thru most of the junk and find my own balance. Maybe that's why I'm not Dem or Repub, a very un-Ditto head thing to do I know.
