Poll: Why all the hate?

[The King of Rock and Roll]

I've been a member for a while, but inactive for a little while too. And I've recently noticed that you guys bash Fox News a lot.

I mean, I realize that they're not exactly perfect, but their news packages and stories are a lot better done, more well written, and intelligent than CNN and MSNBC. And the opinion shows actually have multiple opinions on: Fox's opinion hosts actually allow the other party member to finish a sentence. CNN and MSNBC and others allow rampant opinion to perforate their news program whereas Fox's unbiased news segments are really unbiased.

So, I ask, why do you guys always bash Fox news. It's usually been CNN and Liberals like Jack Tonphson who ban video games, so I really, really don't understand why you guys hate the 'right wing news.' Conservatives are always for free speech and freedom, so again, why the hate for them?

More intelligent?

Not really. More manipulative. Have you guys seen the video where Fox News manipulates an interview with John Stewart? That's evil!

And the best news channel is ENN

I assume it's because they exaggerate and outright lie about things to boost ratings/viewings rather than producing unbiased, factual news like they are supposed to.

As mentioned before: The Mass Effect scandal is a good example.

You should also not assume that all your readers are Americans either, we don't have those channels in the UK nor do most other countries.

As an Englishman, I am not familiar with your yanky news channels. However, I have caught fox news every now and then and compared to British news coverage, Fox news is really bad, apocalyptically so.

 

[geldonyetich]

The irony that the king of rock and roll should be such a conservative shill.

This.

For far less biased American politics, I like to read newfeeds from BBC.

What does music and politics have to do with one another?

 

[Good morning blues]

You've forgotten CBS, even if you're only doing American channels.

Because BBC has absolutely no record of manipulating the truth or being government tools.

 

[Cherry Cola]

I hope Fox's credebility is down the shithole. Do people still believe what is said on that news channel?

Unfortunately, yes.

I could go on the news and say that the end of the world would come in three days, and that to prevent extinction we would have to eat or feces and kill a Canadian, and someone would believe me.

 

[crystalsnow]

No bbc? I would have thought that would be an option.

Mass Effect got blown out of proportion. It even made the game sell better.

 

[The King of Rock and Roll]

Sorry Brits, I didn't think of BBC.

No, no, no, you're supposed to say: "but I'm not a conservative shill and I think you smell!"

Historically, politics and music have a lot to do with eachother, but I don't have the necessary eternity to outline the specifics.

Unbaised....have you ever seen the Daily Show or the Colbert Report ripp the to shreds because of their massive bais?

I never said they were perfect. I've only stated that BBC is less biased. Far less biased, in fact. At least for American poliitics.

Sounds like the hate is stemming more from yourself though :\

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

Oh, no, no, no, don't.
Fox News sucks.
I don't really support CNN or MSNBC but they're at least professional and they're not homophobic, atheist-bashing one-sided jerks.
Megyn Kelly is absolutely hateful, Glenn Beck is a clown, O'Reilly is downright deluded and their position towards videogaming, atheism and religions other than christianity is absolutely inacceptable.

It was blown out of proportion by FOX, I watched their report and it was ridiculous. The fact that it gave it publicity isn't a positive thing because it wasn't their intention.
