FoxNews? "Fair and Balanced" Not on the weekends!

[Calvin Locke]

FNC has gotten bad.

Tony Snow's departure was because he was too pro US, pro conservative, according to a tv industry observer that I heard on the radio.

Plus, he did come from the GHWB administration (ABC apparently doesn't care about the Steffie's credentials as a very boring
host coming from a very corrupt administration...)

I stopped watching FNC with any consistency or duration for many "little" things that added up: constant sound effects,
constant on screen annoyances, tabloidial overkill to any number of stories, little international news, too many
Clintonistas "spinning the daily DNC talking points" rather than the topic...

In addition to Philips, lets add Greta, Kiran Chetry, Shepard Smith, Greg Jarrett, etc. etc. to those that Fox should dismiss. I've heard and/or read that all the folks I've listed are lefties. I bet they just love seeing Bush getting tossed around. The good thing for them lately is the fact that they don't have to be employed by CNN or CBS to get away with bashing the Pres. Fox is giving them plenty of leeway to do it right there at FNC.

There's nuthin' on the damn radio on the weekend either except occasionally when there aren't any more college basketball games to announce. And where the heck IS Jennifer Eccleston? The entire heterosexual male Fox viewing audience used to stop what they were doing and genuflect when she came on, but I haven't seen her in months. It seems like once the rat primaries started, Fox went in the crapper. I hope this show up in the ratings and they aren't now attracting liberals that make up the difference. I doubt they will. FNC pandering will do as much good as Bush's pandering. Notbing.

My latest rant to Foxnews...

"Julie Kurtz should be reprimanded for her disrespect for President Bush. She referred to him as "Bush" no less that 10 times, during a short biased segment on the non-issue of President Bush's Guard service. I want an apology from her on the air!!!!!

Foxnews on the weekends is little more than a talking point tool of the DNC. Fair and Balanced is something that on the weekends Foxnews IS NOT!!!

Another prime example of your obvious bias is that you put on Charles Rangle spewing his LIES (on the air) for far more time than Mr. Gillespie, who was trying to answer his accusations!!! You actually cut away from Mr. Gillespie in mid sentence...

When are you going to quit being so biased??? Why no report on John Kerry's "BimboGate" scandal that is burning up the International Press today??? Why does your news agency promote innuendo and rumor gleefully when the subject is President Bush, while refusing to even mention one of many "interesting" stories on John Kerry appearing in other "World" media outlets today?.

Your double standard insults and sickens me!!! I expect more from your network than becoming a CNN clone! Your ratings will plummet if this continues. Save "our" "FAIR AND BALANCED" Foxnews"!!!!!

And one more thing, I'm not going to watch any commercials for that levitra crap, every time they run one I tune out. I haven't been able to watch more than about 20 minutes today without having to change. Oh well, the History Channel has some good military stuff today I haven't seen.

[johnb838]

Puh-leaze... Not Kiran! :(

[bluebunny]

I see more people are catching on to FNC. I've noticed the same trend for the past year. What really made me wise up to Fox is all the porn movie and mag whores they are always pimping. I have barely watched them in the past two months.

[oceanview]

Kiran seems pretty apolitical to me, then again, I am really never listening to what she is saying, so maybe that is part of it......

[mtnwmn]

Gibson, Cavuto and Hume are refreshing. Even the morning show is starting to look like all the other morning shows....same books, same movies, same stories, same gossip, same politicians. It's all a farce!

[ConservativeMan55]

LOL!

[fox0566]

What do you mean by "puh-leaze"? Are you agreeing with my statement about Kiran or not? Maybe a lot of times her liberal views don't come to light on air, but I've read she's a Dem. and a liberal at that.

[LjubivojeRadosavljevic]

Yep.
FNC has far-far too much tabloid.
And, the cases of Scott Peterson, Kobe, Michael Jackson etc. are just simply not the most important news items of the day as FNC would try to make you believe.

I stopped watching O'Reiley as well. 75% percent of the topics he covers are completely predictable as well as his positions (opinions) on the issues.

[johnb838]

No, I think she's cute, very photogenic, does her job, keeps her politics out of it. I like her.

[oceanview]

that may be true, but he (and Savage) are the only people really taking it to the judiciary. I don't watch all his segments anymore however.

After this past week and the constant drumbeat about the National Guard record, nothing about Kerry's alleged scandal, and just the fact the weekend shows are AWFUL, my husband and I finally turned OFF FNC!! I also emailed them how disgusted we were with their collapse into the "same old, same old" as CNN, MSNBC, and the other Nets. Just when we thought we had a source of possibly balanced news!! To add to the list that others have started, Allyson Camerota, Martha McCallum, and even Carl Cameron seems to have slanted way left.

[fox0566]

Your assessment of Ms. Chetry is fair. I just have a hard time with a reporter's credibility once I know that underneath it all they support the left and their dirty tactics. It cheapens every word that comes out of their mouth.

[Timesink]

Well what "reporter" would admit to that? It would be a career killer in a news world run by lefties.

NBC's Brian Williams is not only a fan, he actually has a Dale Jr sticker on his car!

John Gambling on NYC wabc radio is also a huge NASCAR fan.
