Not that I am defending Fox News (far from it), but this *was* an editorial piece. The bile and venom you describe is common in editorial pieces here.

Normally, these shows are called "No Spin Zone" or "Fair and Balanced" or some such twaddle.

Well, a spot called "My Word" would be an editorial, and as such, be full of pompous ass-gas... what I'm saying is the bile and venom are typical for this type of "twaddle", hehe...

You should listen to conservative talk radio over here... Limbaugh and his like have made it a desolate intelligence wasteland...

EDIT: And yeah, it was me who rec'ed your post about O'Reilly 🙂

Americans have that trait of feeling the need to improve anything
that is deficient. You'll get use to it, as you've really no other choice.

How very mature of you, is learning to be an @rsehole a required part of military training or are you self taught?

Der Spiegel...
but "Der Spiegel" is not really one of the newspapers used for propaganda... the FAZ and the Bild (if you can even call the latter a newspaper) would be the first that spring to my mind when I think of German media giving false infos... "Der Spiegel", same as it's main rival, "Fokus" usually research their articles very well.
I don't think the Spiegel is a prime example of german news propaganda (which does exist, I know that... it's just not very effective because most Germans hate all the politicians running for office anyway, so nobody really cares... yeah, at least my generation is not very political)

I'm self-taught when it comes to sniveling little english "boys" like you, who probably wouldn't last a day in Navy boot-camp, much less an hour in Marine Corps bootcamp. They don't serve cappuccino and espresso on demand, so I'm afraid you'd break like stick.....was I polite enough?
