Both sides need their news. To me they are all biased.



Had to give you Kudos Sweet Merry.... So very true.

Ha ha ha...... never heard anything but praise for the all mighty King Obama.


That king or messiah label has never fit. It certainly does not now. This is wishful thinking from koolaide drinkers wishing the election had not turned out the way it did. At least when Bush "won" (the second term, he DID lose the first) I only saw the rabid fearmongering coming from the extreme of the left.
Not so with Obama, not so by Faux news nor right wing talk radio. This is 24/7 non-stop hate.

Shino, the hate may be warranted. I am still hoping he can do something other than promote his smile in camera. we will see.

Eric Burns of Media Matters says that Faux News has become a tool for the wacko right and is no longer "no longer a news organization. This is a political organization"

I think he is dead on correct.


Not that I really care about the opinion of some guy from Media Matters, but I'm curios which organizations he thinks are News, and what makes them different from FOX? I mean, as far as I can tell all of them, without exception, practice Yellow Journalism. Of course, should we really be surprised when they strive to win an award created by the FATHER of Yellow Journalism?

Excellent thread though. I just wished TFS had more conservatives. Needs a better balance.



Yeah...but from what I can tell.....conservatives aren't balanced thinking people themselves.....
