FoxNews: Do you watch it?

[TheDarkHorse]

A simple question: do you watch it, even for fun/critique, and which program?

Personally, I do. A friend and myself were talking about how Bill O'Reilly was a guilty pleasure of ours. He's quite entertaining, whether or not you agree with him or his tactics, and I like how he handles his guests. But he's kinda declined since the end of Bush's term.

Since then, I've dubbed FoxNews As The Comedy Channel, and I sometimes get a dose of the different programs. Its not where I get my news

[Pop music sucks]

No, I wouldn't even watch it in jest.

[spitfirejunky]

Categorical no. I feel like my IQ would drop if I watched it.

[Haliburton]

fox news is no worse than any other station

[Mr. Ron]

My parents watch it, and I may glance at it for a few minutes but other than that? Not really. I usually like to watch it to see if Glenn Beck cries for the 300th time this week.

[Berner]

I saw it on the TV once when I was in the US. I listened to the inanity of it all and stopped paying attention fairly quickly. Of course, I do that with every other news station I've seen as well.

[DBoons Ghost]

No. I despise FOX news. I despise MSNBC. I despise CNN.

I try to keep my head in the sand as much as possible.

[Foehammer]

DBoon secretly worships Billo.

You can tell by his Che Guevara avatar.

[DBoons Ghost]

I do love Bill. He's well informed and very well educated, and what he says is usually law.

I also think Hong Kong Phooey would have made a great world leader, and all TV should be replaced with reruns of Penelope Pitstop, and we can laff at the hijinks as the Ant Hill Mob with their trusty car, Chuggaboom, save Penelope Pitstop from the perils of the Hooded Claw.

There are lessons to be learned there.

[Der Übermensch]

Yep. Its almost as funny as Comedy Central. Sort of an unintentional Jon Stewart.

[GnRguitarist]

Fox News is the only news channel I take seriously. They seem to be the only ones without any real bias, and I've noticed that almost all of what Glen Beck says is true. You can say what you want about it though, you bunch of Obama supporting sheep.

The best thing you've ever posted.

[DBoons Ghost]

Aww I must suck then Greg.

[malaise]

I watch it sometimes thinking it'll make me laugh, but I usually just end up raging.

[Against Miik!]

Shepard Smith is awesome. Besides that, I can't stand Fox & Friends and the people at the news desks are no different than any other network. I used to watch O'Reilly, but now it just really annoys me when he has that segment where he just reads what is on the screen, as if his viewers need to be read to (actually...). I'll still watch if he has a good guest or something, because his interviews can be fairly entertaining.

[beso negro]

[JohnXDoe]

FOX news lol

FOX doesn't have news

[Angmar]

idk this might be better

[Dave de Sylvia]

Fox's news coverage is decent. Their opinion segments range from decent to awful, but that's to be expected really.

[beso negro]

You're such a libertarian, agreeing with a social conservative like that.

he's against bans on gay marriage and i think he's pro-choice. unfortunately he's for the drug war though.

Agreed. For the most part, Shep seems to be an ok guy.

[die of starvation]

i dont watch any news
why would you watch news

[siva_chair]

Not at all the same as supporting it.

What? Yes it is. It is supporting their right to choose whether or not to marry a member of the opposite sex, which is the whole issue.

[Aaron]

We don't have FoxNews outside America.

[easylee]

**** IT!!

WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!

z

[Haliburton]

Being apathetic to the concerns of gay people (or anyone else) is not the same as actively supporting them at all.

so because i dont care either way if people buy oranges or not im against people buying oranges

what

[malaise]

Red Eye is actually pretty good tbh.

[Mr. Ron]

The host can be annnnoying sometimes, though.

[Haliburton]

maybe if you define supporting them as going to pride parades or something

what he said was he didnt care about it, he didnt clarify whether he didnt care about the cause (enough to say the government shouldnt ban it) or if he didnt care about it happening (so the government shouldnt ban it)

[Haliburton]

i dont think it matters if the result is the same

people generally cant help how some things make them feel

they can choose to do the right thing and ignore their feelings though

[DBoons Ghost]

Not what I said.

Not caring about what gay people do isn't the same as supporting them in it. That is patently obvious.

You could be a virulent homophobe and still not be opposed to gay marriage, because that would be statist.

But you'd still be a homophobe.

Wait..

So, I don't mind if the gays marry. I would never protest for them, nor would I protest against them getting married. In fact, I don't care what they do.

But, if I was against gay marriage, they means I'm scared of the gay?

They should create a new term for hating gays that isn't a phobia, because no one's afraid of a gay, they just dislike their perverse and immoral behavior.

You know the gay cannot bang the other gay in the peehole and produce a child. Unless you've been in manlove, I suppose you cannot understand manlove. With some it's just about sex, and with others it's manlove that stems from girls saying no to them one too many times. Like, a lot of hardcore gays are kinda ugly and weird, and usually all of them have some kind of kid toucher story that made them desire anal stretching.

Anyways, the same goes for the women. Real lesbians look like Rosie O'Donnell.

I hope this post helps.

[DBoons Ghost]

Oh you could have at least played along.

You suck.

[Haliburton]

They can change their minds.
thats a bit like saying gay people can change their sexuality

no they cant

[Haliburton]

i said feelings

the political opinion part is the ignoring them

[Der Übermensch]

Hehe. Remember when Siva was a die-hard Calvinist?

[Mr. Ron]

lol

[Haliburton]

No, your feelings can change.
feelings being able to change and people being able to change their feelings is not the same thing

[TheDarkHorse]

Hehe. Remember when Siva was a die-hard Calvinist?

Remember when Siva's posts were worth reading? :wave:


Edit: You French Fags seriously have to derail every thread? I made a Thread for you guys for a reason now shutup and lets discuss how great Bill O'Reilly Is!

[Haliburton]

i remember i was a leftist

the way i see it i evolved into something better

if only iskandar would do the same

he just has to realise that economic liberty is personal liberty

[Haliburton]

no or we'd see a correlation of economic freedom index and government spending on social programs

but we dont

i mean denmark gets pretty high in spite of it but that doesnt prove causality

[TerranYouApart]

flamingos are such a useless animal i don't get why they are still around

[Dave de Sylvia]

Now look what you've done.

http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/imgad?id=CMz0maen7qnMiAEQ2AUYTzIIjocoSMVaGVc

[TerranYouApart]

why are those guys so girly looking?

[Haliburton]

if there was causation there'd be correlation hurr

[Haliburton]

scoring highly isnt the same as being correlated

l2statistics

[siva_chair]

Hehe. Remember when Siva was a die-hard Calvinist?

Never was a die hard Calvinist. Never went to a Calvinist church. The doctrine of Predestination just made sense to me.

Please get your facts straight.

[Der Übermensch]

If it wasn't you, than who was it? I know there was one here... Maybe he just disappeared :(

[Mr. Ron]

I know who you're talking about, I just can't think of the name. I believe it started with a "C". I want to say Cro-????

[spitfirejunky]

croniun? I think he lost his religion. =(

[gregulus]

Croniun.

[siva_chair]

Croniun.

And I think you owe me an apology user Der.

[Der Übermensch]

Yeah, I mixed up the two of you there :( Been quite awhile. I wonder what happened to him?

[Mr. Ron]

See? Mr. Ron's memory hasn't left him yet. :]

[Smokey D]

scoring highly isnt the same as being correlated

Well, it does suggest that high social spending isn't fatal to economic freedom.

[Simon Cowell]

I don't watch Fox News. I do however, listen to Michael Savage. Something about an angry jew with a background in beat poetry and holistic medicine screaming about how much he hates liberals is extremely hilarious.

[burtonbassist_101]

hell no.

[DENEpants]

if you watch fox news you should see outfoxed.

[guitarded_chuck]

I'll throw on Fox and last like 5 minutes before I want to fly down to where ever those idiots are and punch them in the face a.k.a. change the channel.

[Wickerton]

itt liberals ignoring the fact that every other major channel is liberal tripe

[guitarded_chuck]

nah i'd say they're socialist propaganda tbh

[Wickerton]

hey bill o'reilly lost some weight

[guitarded_chuck]

them boys have good interviewing tactics

[DENEpants]

it's not an interview if you never let the other person talk.

[stevensonmat2]

hilarious

I would have left
