And you have yet to address the fake videos.

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

I'm not looking for pity. I'm saying that you have been very unpleasant to me, and for no reason that I can identify.



You can only identify that which you are willing to see.

If you are looking for hugs and kittens, thats in the off topic section.

But the fake videos? If I see some proof that that happened, I'll address it, but the only ones I've seen are the one from CBS and the one from ABC. I don't know your age, but you might remember that there was a problem years ago with ABC setting fire to cars and stating that it happened as a result of accidents. The CBS one of course was the Dan Rather debacle. If Fox has done this as well, well, then, that's heinous.

And insulting reporting? Well, I'm afraid I'd hve to fall further into the "So and so did it" with that one, and I choose not to do that. But again, I watch Fox News, and I haven't seen that of which you speak. I think it may be different if you read what someone else says about Fox News than it is to actually see Fox News. People take many things out of context, and present it as truth.

Hardly. She insists she has been nothing but polite, yet has entered almost every thread with the preconceived notion about those who post here. Assuming things, in my opinion, has never been polite.

Assuming that we all hate conservatives, and are eager to jump all over her just because shes a conservative is more than kinda hokey... yanno like some things are JUST too good to be true?

"in a line of work"

You popped and and whined that conservatives were being attacked. You dont know any of us, unless you are using an account you have not used in this section before. Then you whine that we arent being nice. Now you are whining that I am not being nice.

Where does it say I have to be nice to your standards?

I happen ti believe I am being quite polite. Again, you simply do not like what youa re being told. That's not my problem.

Btw, most here will insist you do your own research. I gave you the link to the fake video before. I will not do so again.

The link you gao the "fake video" does not convince me that it was intentional. Not like others I've seen. I'd be happy to give you those links without insinuating (as you did to me) that you don't know how to do it yourself. And I ay attention to who ,ales the claim of fake--when a liberal news outlet refers to it as fake, I know there's a bias there, just as it would be on the right.

I did not whine. And you and your friend know very well that you've being nasty, and you apparently think it's cute. I don't care--again, line of work, used to seeing it.

Censoring political speech would, in fact, be restricting speech.

What disturbs me is the assumption here that all conservatives lie, or that everyone on Fox lies. What about Alan Combs, Bob Beckel, Joe Jackson, Susan Estridge? None of them are conservatives, and they are on Fox.

Also, if you watch Fox (which of course I do on occasion) you would see that on every segment, there is a liberal as well as a conservative. You don't see this on the other networks. I personally wouldn't call it balanced, but it's more frequent than the mainstream media does it.

First, all speech is political insofar as any govt. would seek to censure it. From my fairly exhaustive look into Fox, I have found several disturbing things.

WTTG the Washington Fox affiliate, former employees revealed, survived basically untouched for a year after Murdoch's takeover. Once there, they scripted the news, hired aggreeable and otherwise relatively unknown liberals to often, near the end of a segment were instructed (ordered) to come around and agree with the right point of view.

Fox perpetrated the lie by flat out and deliberately speculating "So let's say [HE] was the ghost writer of Obama's book. Then proceeded to have an extensive discussion all under this speculation...and it was a deliberate smear upon the president with no one on the left to argue when of course the whole discussion was disgustingly and obviously baseless.

I almost never watch ANY 'news programs' from either side but after all of these years since the formation of the Fox network, I would have to vote that of them all, Fox is easily the most falsely partisan and has a 'news agenda' ...to denigrate, slant, speculate, cast dispersions upon in anyway possible and in the end...outright lie if they have to...to do just that upon the left in general and the pres. in particular.

Fox marginalized both Ron Paul and John McCain in 2008, knowing that Obama couldn't change that much and would otherwise play ball. He has done just that in war and law, banking, taxes and in most of the important ways...is Bush III.

Not to you or me.

We have more respect for freedom of speech here.


The difference is perfectly clear. They dont want lies broadcast as news in Canada. Yet you and others are still bleating on about free speech. We had similar comments on these boards about Europe banning hate speech. I have yet to see any of you "free speechers" start a thread about not being able to swear at the cops in the US, or indeed any similar laws.

Infact I can recall you being against freedom of religion. So are you just cherry picking what freedoms people do and dont have ?

Because its not about lies. If it was about lies every mahor news network would be shut out of Canada because every major news network eventually gets caught up in scandal. The BBC has been caught up in scandal, NPR has been caught up in scandal, as have The New York Times, NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, and so on.

The problem, the real problem, is that FOX doesnt push the far left agenda as do all these other news agencies

Are you saying that Canada told ALL of them to pound sand until they get their act together and start just reporting the damn news?

Why do you try to limit it to US broadcasters

What about the BBC, theve got scandal on their hands as well, but they lean far to the left so... no problem there 

Eh
