People who like their news packaged with conservative opinion and interpretation should enjoy Fox. What's the harm in accepting that?
Nothing - unless they (Fox) claim to be fair and balanced when they're obviously not. If they admit to their 'slant' then there's no problem.

The media you've all been describing is contrived for one purpose: to control you. It's all phoney. You'll need to become informed without the help of the easily obtained media products.

As long as you're on the internet, why not take advantage of the alternative sources for news. Alex Jones streams a very good broadcast from 11-2 central. Head-to-head with the fat-boy I used to listen to.

Do as you wish, but do not think you are a well-informed citizen if you are getting all your information from cable, etc. No no no.

Just so I know, what makes your informed media outlets any different
than the others? Do they simply have a message or theme to your
liking or is it something else, they have a "we speak the truth award"
hanging on their wall some where? 🙂

One thing you can guarantee...if the dirty digger has an "I speak the truth award", he made it up himself!
