Rush has been around much longer than CNN or Fox, and even before cable TV, hell I heard him for the first time in the 80s... He is by no means a "new" phenomenon

Doc Brown Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 6 hours ago, ShadyBillsFan said: CNN is one sided and has been that way long before Alternate Truth became a meme, FOX News is one sided. Sean Hannity (the mouthpiece) for Conservatives spreads so much hate and disdain its ridiculous and the base sucks his crap up. don't pretend only one side is bad. It is not helping to unite a divided America Hannity shouldn't be on TV. I'd say the same thing about Rachel Maddow. Just pure propaganda which is why they get the ratings and they just polarize this country even more. Everybody knows MSNBC has become a liberal network and Fox News is a far right cable network at least in prime time. However, the reason conservatives hate CNN is of the three major cable networks, they're the one's that are supposed to be fair and balanced. They aren't.
row_33 Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 people sit there and watch Hannity for an hour every weeknight, seriously?

I've tried but he and Glenn Beck were not worth 15 seconds of my time. Good thing every episode of Firing Line is online, it's all the same issues and we're 40 plus years down the road and it's only gotten worse.

At least he brought something new to the table with his chalkboard.
row_33 Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 I guess Jordan Peterson is the latest fad, the knife-wielding attacks by his enemies are quite enjoyable these days. turned down a chance to see a sold out lecture last month, will go see Martin Amis in a few weeks instead at a book signing.

He is by no means a "new" phenomenon CNN was founded in 1980, and Limbaugh didn't get a national syndication until 1988. Until then, his show was broadcast locally in the Sacramento market. Fox first aired in Autumn of 1996.
row_33 Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 CNN had balanced programming for a long time. At least a conservative was allowed on up to around 1994.

Let me understand what you are saying. It appears as if you are willing to post something that you know might not be true, but your standards prevent you from posting a link, because it might not be accurate? 1

So when something reports to your confirmation biases, you don't question it's sources or methods. It's always hilarious to hear someone report that they've experienced as much personal and intellectual growth as they are willing to.

I said when somebody writes something I already know to be true and I see that they’ve sourced it I’m not going to dissect the source. That’d be a waste of my time and I don’t care about becoming a message board rockstar because I can still get an erection.

What's hilarious is that your personal and intellectual growth are so stunted, by choice, that you don't even realize it, and worse yet that you're actually proud of it as demonstrated by the peacocking lap you're taking right now. It's absolutely hilarious to observe. Edited February 9, 2018 by TakeYouToTasker
