Fox Has a Blatantly Partisan Agenda

[Moe Bedard]

If the viewership numbers have shifted, this is pretty much entirely because of Fox. Fox viewers are convinced that every other media outlet is involved in a dark socialist conspiracy to destroy America .......

(and that is not even exaggeration for comic effect), the Main Stream Media pretends the socialist conspiracy theory is One Side of the Story, and anyone who wants actual news, Lord help them, is ****ed.
Hence this, from Harwood, is bullshit:

partisan fragmentation throughout America’s news media and their audiences has grown significantly. Future Republican presidents will have to decide, as Team Obama has, how to buck or accommodate that trend.

No, they won't. They will not face a liberal equivalent of Fox. What they will do is not a mystery. They will pretend every other network besides Fox is "partisan," they will denounce The Media, and the Media will flog themselves over their imaginary offenses against imaginary "heartland voters," and the only news opinion shows worth watching will be on comedy stations.

Fox is nuts. I'm sorry Moe - didn't even read the whole thing. I just have known for a long time they have an agenda and they are pushing it hard. I don't believe anything they say yet there are people who do and it stuns me. I have a volunteer who loves fox and rush et. al., but when he serves people in need he is wonderful. I can't figure it out.

[Moe Bedard]

Fox operates via black ops style journalism with a heavy dose of fascism disguised as democracy and protecting the Republic. When is fact they are 100% corporatism, the are for wage slavery and for the rich who just ripped off Main Street to keep all their stolen, ill gotten gains.



Beck, Hannity and O'reiley seem to have many people on Main Street in a trance convincing them that they (Beck etc.) are just like us and suffer the same. They convince the masses that war is good and helping people is bad, but exploiting them for profit is fine.

The main reason I am bringing these articles to peoples attention is because they need to realize that Fox is the apitami of corporate communism and the poster child for everything that is wrong with our media today.

PROFITS AND MONOPOLIES BEFORE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS!

That they can even call themselves reporters and journalists is a joke. It's nothing but propaganda and the most disturbing thing is that people are ignorant enough to watch it and believe it. I'm constantly amazed. One really has to wonder what happened to otherwise intelligent people in this country. Did they move?
