======================================
RW>> If liberals had any brains, they'd be conservatives.

 JB> Yawn, heard it before.  Also heard "independents are democrats in denial".

Did you hear him when he said he was independant?

RW>> I've seen him proved wrong, once...he took it with a grain of salt and
RW>> offered an apology. He's not the ogre you paint him to be.

 JB> In ten years of episodes, there's no way you can convince me he's only
 JB> been proved wrong once.  You're making him out as next to God.

To fanatics he IS God.

RW>> Oh, so they edited them and now they don't relate to the actual episode.
RW>> Yeah, right.

 JB> Since most of his fans think he's the next best thing since sliced bread,
 JB> they would never take the time to officially confirm or deny whether the
 JB> transcript was modified in the one example I gave.  Even if faced with a
 JB> blatant pile of irrefutable evidence, they would simply not acknowledge
 JB> it. O'Reilly would be proud, he taught his flock well.

See above.

RW>> If the do, they're probably not watching politically biased material. If
RW>> they do, then they're probably doing research into the bias of liberals.

 JB> You may be half right, most conservatives I've met do tend to shy away
 JB> from any political material on the internet, since it has such a high
 JB> chance of being accurate.  Who needs facts when they've got Fox News.
 JB> Fair and balanced!

Seems like I have to find Fox on my sattelite box and put in in my Favourite
List. Who can live without it?

 JB> An interesting thing to note is that anything I've ever seen which has to
 JB> try and convince its public that it has fair and/or balanaced reporting,
 JB> always ends up not being.  A local evening news show here tries to do the
 JB> same thing.  And guess what channel it airs on?  Our local Fox affiliate,
 JB> of all places.

When one have to do that so often there usually is something fishy going on.

RW>> The difference is that O'Reilly is believable, while Olbermann is not.

 JB> Different strokes, different folks, etc.

How lucky you are. I did a complete search on the two sattelite system
available here and none had Fox News but one had Al Jazira.

Felten, do you know where Fox is? It must be available here but where?

RW>> Fox News is always truthful, which can't be said of the liberals news
RW>> channels...wish I could, but that's impossible.

 JB> If Fox News' daily business is your idea of truthful, I'd hate to see them
 JB> when they're fibbing.

LOL.
