I, for one, don't criticize what I don't know. For instance, I have a witness :-) who can testify that I watched Fox News for two days in a row during my recent trip to Chicago. I found the programs to be filled with egregious lies, creepy hysterical outbursts, scary religious propaganda, and very uneducated journalists whose vocabulary is sadly limited.Clarissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027134365260069910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164556861454970487.post-34987036227068106232010-12-21T10:18:11.452-05:002010-12-21T10:18:11.452-05:00"Beyond that, most liberal critics of Fox don..."Beyond that, most liberal critics of Fox don't watch it because, well, one just doesn't do that."<br /><br />I've tried watching the network for five minutes, and concluded that a root canal was more fun.ericnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164556861454970487.post-76728468659410221652010-12-21T05:03:15.552-05:002010-12-21T05:03:15.552-05:00I know Fox takes a lot of hits, but I'm not su...I know Fox takes a lot of hits, but I'm not sure it's that bad. I don't see it much, being in Europe most of the time. I'm stuck with CNN International, which is steadily getting worse in all respects, and BBC, which is, well, BBC. When I'm in the U.S. I watch Fox most of the time just to see the difference. My impression is that in delivering the news they're OK, usually with a bit less political slant than most of the rest of the media. Their opinion programs, of course, are completely conservative, with a few liberal tokens here and there. The problem is, most people identify Fox with their opinion programs only. Beyond that, most liberal critics of Fox don't watch it because, well, one just doesn't do that.Tom Carterhttp://opinion-forum.comnoreply@blogger.com
