Is Fox a news channel?

-
Fox News has clearly demonstrated that they are a political action group. They should not be treated or viewed by anyone as a News Organization. Please watch this video..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3LUid0IZ2w&feature=topvideos

What do you think?

I've tried watching MSNBC and they are basically the same with the spin rotating in the opposite direction. Fox is just a bit more ambitious at maintaining their spin. Neither are really a good source of unbiased information. Bring back the oldtimers.

To Mike Roach - so in your mind neither MSNBC or Fox are really news? I don't watch either one, but, MSNBC seems to at least try to be a news source whereas Fox is always putting a big spin on. Maybe that is the way I should say it. Fox is spinning faster than MSNBC. Makes me dizzy!

I'm not saying that they are not really news networks. They are there to supply the news of the world as well as domestic and they do perform that service. I am saying that there are programs on each of the networks that are severely biased. I do watch them both when I don't have anything else to do. Each have programs where the news is presented based on the events that are happening. There are also programs that include a host, be it Glenn Beck or Rachel Maddow, who are there to put a spin on the events that have taken place.
I suppose it was a bit rash of me to say that neither were really good sources of unbiased information. One must be selective on the programs that they watch on each of the two networks.

I agree with you on being selective. You can watch and be selective on what you process as facts. Good comment.....

SojkasCall Best Stuff of 2017 This is the 2017 roundup of best in entertainment, food, travel and whatever I did this year.  this is probably best consumed when stoned or in a weird mood.  If you just watched Jeopardy or the nightly news, then it will not make sense.  So, if you find yourself saying WTF, just tilt your head 5 degrees to the right and it will all make sense.  I promise! I might throw in a worst of this or that somewhere too - some people like that as well and I certainly have a cynical side that should be kept in check.   Let's start with music videos.  Personally, I found this one of the most disappointing years for music vids in recent memory.  The predominance of interactive make-your-own was not my thing.  I like to be entertained with ideas, music, and visuals that are on the edge and not seen before.  So, the list below was put together after much curation and thought and watching lots of stupid ones. ...

Could it be that the problems we face have nothing to do with Obama and that he is only the current example of what we see as something wrong? Since whoever is President is the leader and example of our society in the US, I posit that when the system is malfunctioning then the public leader of the system will look like he/she is malfunctioning. It does not matter if it is W, Obama, Newt, Hillary, or whoever. We need to change our view of what is real. That means looking a lot deeper than most of us are willing to look. It is so much easier to blame everything on a scapegoat. Just host another one up on the cross. That will fix everything. Then we can remain arrogant and self-righteous and feel good we did something (just remember to wash your hands). So, vote for whoever is not in power and things will all be better. Right - and I have some "land" in Florida for sale........... This article by David Korten called Religion, Science, and Spirit: A Sacred Story for Our Time is...
