@GstateBALLER925

Well, I already stated that they expressed the opinion that the American public wanted the Obama Healthcare reform. Not even CNN polling showed that.

They also reported that Racist Tea -partiers brought signs depicting Obama as Hitler: That was a black democrat who brought it.

They reported the lie that democrat congressman were called the N word by Tea partiers. Never happened.

ANY of your news sources bother telling you code pink THREW THINGS at Pelosi earlier this week?

@Dubcadillac Because Focks Noos panders to the ignorant and uniformed by catering to humanity's baser instincts like racism. It's a right wing echo chamber owned by very rich conservatives who use fear mongering to support their upper class agenda...like lower taxes for corporations, the abolition of the estate tax (which affects less than 1% of Americans.) I could go on but why. Glenn Beck is manic depressive (absolutely true)...which explains his crying fits.Oh yeah...BUY GOLD!

@enterprisevending has that brainwashing treating you?

You guys are fools convincing fools to come over to your side of foolish thinking. At leaset their factual reporting is less bias than nbc, cbs, abc, cnn and their affiliates.

Martin Luther King Jr. Preaches Against Aggressive Wars according to the Bible (same as Ron Paul) /watch?v=AeME7Q6Oaj0

"There's nothing wrong with being a conservative and coming up with a conservative belief in foreign policy where we have a strong national defense and we don't go to war so carelessly. ... Legitimate use of violence can only be that which is required in self-defense."-Ron Paul

If FOX or Bill O'Reilly cared about Wounded Warriors they'd not trash Ron Paul President 2012!

@dhatraditya I searched for the original poll numbers and you are right that there was a 15% unsure. However that does not mean that Cenk is correct in everything that he says. He alleges that FOX lied intentionally. I doubt very much that he has any proof off this, there are no facts to back this up. Which means that he is also lying, even though he is in part correct.

If nothing else this shows the biases of the Young Turks in their own reporting.

[MrClintito]

I found the source poll and Fox actually did make a mistake and did add the “very likely” to the “somewhat likely”, but in the end you are all assuming an intent to deceive on FOX's behalf, as opposed to an innocent mistake.

Even if Cenk is correct in what FOX did he is surely making a reach in assuming to judge FOX's intent, as are you by the way.

35% Very likely

24% Somewhat likely

21% Not very likely

5% Not at all likely

15% Not sure

[dhatraditya]

@MrClintito actually, in the actual rasmussen poll, there was a 15% unsure category, which fox news threw away and didn't show at all. if they had shown that, it would have added up to 135%. Cenk is correct, he just didn't share the source of his information clearly.

@pimpdalyrical No, the poll was not botched. It is available at : bit(dot)ly(slash)q19zYG

fox news botched it deliberately. CNN and MSNBC may have used the correct poll, they did NOT botch it.

I'd stick to the facts, but then, I am talking to a fox news fan. guess "facts" are an inconvenience to you.
