Check out this poll from foxnews.com regarding the Health Care Reform Public Option. Read it carefully. Look at choices "absolutely" and "no". Fair and Balanced from Fox News? What do you think?

  • Why is fox KILLING MSNBC in the ratings then? The American tv watcher isnt stupid, they know where their bread is buttered.

    So stick that in your pipe and light it!

  • That is an easy one.

    It is the same reason people know more about Britney Spears than they do about their elected officials and more people vote on American Idol than they do in elections. They sure know where to get that bread buttered if that butter is entertainment.

    I don't defend MSNBC. I can tell you must be an loyal FN fanatic to immediately use the comparison. You are just another moron regurgitating what you hear on TV. You are pathetic.

    Maybe you should put your pipe down.

  • @ceventus No, I dont like Fox half the time. But MSNBC are mindless liberal commentators who dont even get ratings. At least Fox gets ratings. Watching the MSNBC lineup, you either have to be a die-hard liberal finatic who likes to watch shows with no opposision at all, or someone like me who watchs to get a laugh when I see ED blow a fuse over his own party!

  • When I watch cable news I just look for the facts and keep the rest at an arms length. I prefer BBC or CNN. They might be boring compared to other stations, but I prefer less BS with my news.

    I am a person who believes in what Washington said about the two party system. All it does is draw a line where people are on one side or the other. It hinders us more than it helps us as a nation.

  • I watch all the major channels dude, thats why I can say that FOX being fair and balanced is like saying Palin is qualified to be President. Sorry, but it's absurd. I cant watch just one side of the story as I trust no network to not show bias, I'm just saying "Fair and Balanced" is inaccurate. We actually try to guess the FOX headline. Exaggerated Example: Will Obama's new haircut threaten national security? Well Gretchen, does this show weakness to long haired terrorist?

  • There is a short video from JibJab that sums up cable news. It is called "What we call the news". It seems as though we get 90% Opinion and 10% news with these stations now. I can only watch CNN and BBC. It might be considered boring compared to other flashy cable news programs, but I get a little less BS with my news there.

  • Just more propaganda from the wealthy who own the media, FOOLS.

  • All cable "news" is slanted, but Fox spins like a top.

  • Well, if you can't trust a Fox News poll, what can you trust????

    Fair and balanced; they say so.

  • This is how Fox works to deceive people. First of all, they gather data like this from polls on their website, where the visitors are most likely to agree with them to begin with, already scewing the results. Secondly, they only offer three real options:

    1) Agree with you

    2) Slightly agree with you

    3) Slightly disagree with you

    But where is option 4, "Disagree with you"?

    This poll in the video is even worse, as all three options say "agree with you," in some way, without presenting an opposite.

  • @calimar28

    Ratings don't mean it's accurate, or unbiased.

    In fact unbiased accurate news is probably the least popular.

    (but i'm not defending msnbc i don't watch it.)

  • @ceventus Agreed. CNN is the most balanced. But they spend to much time on Haiti and Dr Gupta lolz.
