Breitbart, Daily wire, etc.. is, in my opinion, main stream media, and therefore fake news. Right along with cnn, fox, msnbc , etc etc..

 

I always get a laugh at people who think their preferred news outlet, which has literally millions of viewers or readers, somehow isn’t main stream. They all have agendas.

So where do you get your News?  Do you use one of the MSM outlets that published fake news about Russian Collusion for 4 years?

I try to stick to more financial related outlets these days, mainly Reuters, WSJ.  Not perfect or unbiased, but leagues better than fox, cnn and msnbc (the big 3)

 

anything I see on fox, cnn or msnbc.. i just assume they’re lying as always, and the truth is probably somewhere in the middle

I actually enjoy flipping between msnbc, cnn and fox.......we actually agree, the truth is somewhere in the middle.  While they all have agenda's of what "truth" they want to deliver,  CNN in wins hands down as most obvious.

Which side pushed the narrative about Russian collusion?  Didn't even do their due diligence to find the truth.  From Newt Gingrich's book, Trump:  " Harvard finds the CNN and NBC's coverage of President Trump is 93% negative.  Again, there was a huge, intense news media consensus that the so-called whistleblower at the center of the Democrat's impeachment plan could not be named.  Reporters and hosts of news shows would cut off Republicans and try to shame them if they insisted on trying to name this person.   So the news media created an entirely new rule that (without evidence) you could accuse the president of the United Sates of a crime, spur an impeachment effort, and remain anonymous.  This violated Trump's basic right to face his accuser.  It violated every principle of common sense.  Something as serious as an impeachment should require basic evidence." 

So, why didn't the main stream media seek to find this evidence?  Because they have gotten in bed with the socialist/totalitarian movement.  Which just so happens to be housed in the Democratic party!

If someone can’t tell that cnn is democrats version of news and fox is the republicans version of news. That someone is seriously lacking intelligence. The news is always somewhere in the middle. Both fox and cnn do provide good journalism. But that gets overshadowed by the opinion show people who get air time to voice opinions not news. 
 

News today is always agenda driven. They can only talk about What the ad people will allow them to. So what you hear is what Coca Cola, Koch Etc. Allows you to hear.

More from Newt Gingrich's book, Trump:  "For each minute the broadcast evening newscast spent talking about the president's successful economic programs, viewers heard 77 minutes about the Democrat's impeachment push, a massive disparity.  Overall, coverage of the president was 93% negative during the last 4 months, reaching 95% negative in January 2020."

It kills me to hear someone compare CNN and Fox and make the statement that they are equally bad or good however you want to look at it.  They either watch neither or don’t have enough intelligence to understand news.  CNN has been involved in so many cover ups and scandals over the years and now their lead anchor is providing cover for his brother’s sex scandal and is actually advising him on how to handle it.

The two are not even close in credibility but I realize it makes the fence straddling moderates feel smarter to say it.

The salient point is:  Pamfam10, or any other liberal here, doesn't watch Fox.  But they are an authority on the network!  LOL!!

I think many Liberals/Democrats confuse FOX News with the many opinionated show (Carlson, Hannity, etc).  The difference is, on the FOX News show, you get News.  On CNN, you get their version of the News, plus they’ll throw in their opinions.  We record & watch CBS every evening.  Fascinating to see their slant, and newsworthy events that show the Dems in a bad light are omitted.  Obvious to see why many Liberals are so uninformed.

Like I said, you don’t even understand what you’re talking about.  Sex scandals and skewing or covering up news scandals are two completely different things.  Bill O’Reilly was in a sex scandal but you would be hard pressed to find a more straight shooter, news wise.  If I turn on a channel and get the correct news and the anchor is promiscuous, no big deal to me.

They also didn’t try to cover it up or not report it a la communist news network and Cuomo.

I like my news less rapey … when you get to defending sex offenders you should just stop.

As someone that watches FOX exclusively and by exclusively Tucker Carlson, (host of the #1 cable show). Fox believe it or not is actually Fair and Balanced. You have to look at their total line up and access the host, hostess or group for who they are and what they represent.

Hannity and Ingraham are total shrills of the Right, not far right but definitely not centrist. They match up with your cuomo and gay lemon, which in my opinion are far left. Fox's Wallace, Cavuto, Williams and Geraldo lean left, with the rest of the line up centrist to right leaning.

I feel at least on the actual news end of it Brett Baier, Harris Faulkner and Jon Scott give accurate and informative information. 

I do find it ironic that Fox which has the highest ratings is alway slammed by the outlets its killing in the ratings as if Fox forces people to watch, heck turn off the Airport Terminal monitors for CNN and they would get less traffic than mothergoose.com...

You have a strange way of connecting dots, no one is defending sex offenders here.  Fox fired their #1 guy over the scandal, something cnn would never do.  My main point was to simply highlight your ignorance that the two are equal.

    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up   I wish the Ohio AG much success...from the article: Ohio’s Republican Attorney General is pushing back against critics after warning that anti-Israel protesters wearing masks are facing potential prison time due to a little known state law. "The First Amendment protects you and saying whatever it is you have to say. Even hateful things are protected by the First Amendment," Ohio AG Dave Yost told Fox News Digital this week. "The First Amendment, though, was always designed to be a shield against the government. It's not a sword against your fellow students and they have rights too. Your First Amendment rights are limited by their right to be able to go to school, use the library, get the value of their education and the tuition that they paid for." In a letter sent on Monday, Yost warned university presidents of a historic state law that could mean masked anti-Israel demonstrators on college campuses could face felony charges.  "The law is an old law," Yost told Fox News Digital. "It goes back to the 20th century, and it was originally designed to make sure that people like Ku Klux Klan were held accountable, that, of course, the reason that the Ku Klux Klan wore hoods and masks over their faces is so that they couldn't be identified because they were committing crimes. So the General Assembly in Ohio said, okay, you can wear a mask, you can wear a hood, that's fine. But if you commit a crime with two or more other people, while you are masking yourself, we're going to see that as a heightened kind of crime, a worse kind of thing, because you're consciously doing this and trying to hide your identity because you know you're doing something wrong."
    • You keep pointing at the fact that Biden got so many votes as proof of cheating, when it’s actually proof of something else… Trump motivates people to get off of the couch, register, and vote for ANYBODY BUT TRUMP.  And instead of looking in the mirror and recognizing that the problem is you (the person who nominates a candidate that most people HATE) you blame the people who vote against him.    Haley pulled down 22% of the votes in the most recent Republican  primary. Those votes were cast AFTER she’d already dropped out of the race.    Trump is going to lose the fourth consecutive election cycle since he beat the even more unlikable Hillary in  2016. The Dems learned from their mistake (nominating a despised candidate in ‘16). The Rs keep nominating the same guy that most people hate and expecting different results.    Dems roll in November. 
    • Not yet, anyway. If you can't see that there has been a strong effort to create gender dysphoria amongst young folks AND try to keep it from parents in many instances, you're not paying attention. You may not care about this, but it's ridiculous to ridicule those that do. There is an agenda behind this, no doubt about it, like bullets pointed out earlier, it's just a name change...for now. And it was only very recently that girls were allowed to join the "boy scouts", they have been allowed to join certain other groups that weren't available to girls at the time. It's the frog in the slow boil.
