3rdnlng Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I thought you conservatives didn't like FOX News? why defend them so aggressively? What lies? Should I have said Half Truths? u funny /not but this is "So If I'm Understanding This Correctly, ...The Paragons Of Leadership Are A King, A Military Dictator, And A Power-Crazed Wannabe Czar" http://mediamatters.org/video/2015/02/11/the-daily-show-trashes-fox-news-strange-obsessi/202482 Instead of coming down here for your quarterly ass whipping have you ever thought it might be just easier to increase the amount of sessions you have with Mistress Natalie? I haven't been able to look at her the same after that. It was deeply unsettling to sit through that once, I can only image the nightmares you have having seen it multiple times. For a guy who loves the internet as much as you do, I'm a little shocked by this. I don't mind Special Report, and as much as I like to pick on Fox, I'm endlessly amused by O'Reilly. I just don't think any cable news station is the first place to go for news. Yes, I like the Drudge Report myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Yes, I like the Drudge Report myself. Don't worry. Once the FCC gets their way with Net Neutrality, sites like Drudge and Breitbart will be another outlet of American Pravda implements fair and sensible regulations on dangerous radicals who seek to undermine the public good, oh hey look! Something shiny! All Glory to the FCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) I haven't been able to look at her the same after that.

I just don't think any cable news station is the first place to go for news. the internet cannot be debated. There are always going to be sites to generate news and those who generate headlines. Today's headlines are tomorrows news on the internet. Even so much as someone posting that Dolly Parton caught in bed with Bill Clinton and a llama involved in a secret relationship could be put out tonight and be a wild speculation only to actually happen. When you are talking face in front of the camera you end up with only so many that are actually able to provide news. And I am not counting YouTube or Twitter. News breaks in these places but news is not delivered in them. Edit. I don't get my news from common places, either. I don't do any social sites like Facebook. twitter. etc The are as follows: 1. News.Google 2. TBD 3. 4chan 4. Google Trends Edited February 12, 2015 by jboyst62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 You're using the internet wrong. am I? 1st one is an aggregate of headlines in addition to topics I prefer The sdcond is full of crap, though And the third is about 1 million people in an hour from all ocer the world and if something big is happening it'll generate buzz And the 4th is what's trendy.

4merper4mer Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 You get your news from 4chan? Did you really just say that? It's better than getting news from FireChan. If he did that he'd think Marrone > Lombardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The Five and Special Report are both excellent forums featuring lively discussions of current events. I really don't care for Hannity at all. He's a horrific whiner. Haven't listened to him in years. That said, I think Brian Williams will be lucky to end up as a host on Sesame Street.

To some, he lied. To others, he 'misremembered.' Seriously. You misremember to pick up the dry cleaning. You don't misremember being shot at while flying in a military helicopter in the Middle East.

Deranged Rhino Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 am I? If you honestly believe "Today's headlines are tomorrows news on the internet" and rely on the nightly news as your main source of information (because talking into a camera somehow makes it more newsy) then yes. You're interneting wrong when it comes to news and information. You're probably interneting better at pirating movies and shows and porn though, so you got that going for you;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the defenses of Williams are laughable. Apparently his embellishment of stories has been a running joke inside NBC News for years. As that piece I linked to points out, the line between news and entertainment has been all but eliminated, and Williams fancies himself as an MC rather than a newsman. But those using that as an excuse rather than an explanation for his behavior are missing the point. But at least they're better than the full retards who defend him via "BUSH LIED, PEOPLE DIED!" lajik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
