How Roger Ailes Built the Fox News Fear Factory

Curious to see if the fans of Fox News rush in to point out how the article is coming from a liberal rag, that the owner is homosexual or the writer is just another left-wing hack instead of actually reading and (attempting) to refute his accusations. Not to worry; I'm prepared to be disappointed...

Both a good reads, make good points and provoke a little thinking which is always good...

 

well done, you uncovered some real info there. pat yourself on the back, media is slanted.

 

Next week we discover that dinosaurs once walked the earth.

 

I guess what I like most about FOX is how it drives liberals crazy. When they had the market cornered (ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN) and could spew their liberal crap they loved to say how they were the party of inclusion and how much they believed in free speech.

FOX comes along doing the same thing from the conservative standpoint and it absolutely kills the liberals. It's amazing how hypocritical they can be. It just has to burn them up to know FOX is kicking the liberal media's ass in the ratings. Looks like they got outFOXed!

 

Killing the messenger has always been a useless tactic.

 

Agreed...I never thought "Fair and Balanced" referred to their overall coverage as much as it meant to balance out the liberal media.

I just enjoy when people discuss FOX while pretending ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN are not slanted to the left.

 

Take off the glasses and you'll see it. Being a Hillary supporter you're probably immune from seeing any slant on the Clinton News Network.

You didn't mention NBC. Are you serious that you can't see a liberal slant there? Be honest.

How can you say might for MSNBC? They make FOX look like angels.

If I'm reading you correctly...CNN is completely unbiased, ABC & NBC are almost always unbiased, CBS may have been a little biased a decade ago, and MSNBC might occasionally be biased while FOX News is ALWAYS horribly biased.

Think about that for a minute and try to convince yourself you're a pragmatic independent moderate.

 

Fox is generally conservative but they are not a mouthpiece. They are not in the business of getting any particular individual elected. All others, including CNN, want Obama in office.
