My term for Fox News: "Excellent News Organization".

My term for CNN: "Lying bastards".

How about the term "Opposed to Live Birth" for the Dem's, or...

"Supports killing the unborn"

"Approves Infanticide"

"Believes Scott Peterson wouldn't have killed his wife had she been willing to abort Connor"

"Approves killing black fetus' at twice the rate of whites"

"Thinks China's 'one child' policy is too generous"

"Favors the protection of Baby Killers"

just a few random suggestion to Judy to spice up CNN and improve their ratings

I watch Inside Politics from time to time because it does focus on politics. They often have good guests, and I'm such a political junkie that I'm willing to countenance the crap in order to pick up the occasionally interesting nugget of info. FNC doesn't have a show quite like it. I wish they did.

Finally, I enjoy keeping an eye on what the MSM media are up to, and occasionally reporting back on it to my fellow FRepers.

There was a startlingly good series of articles in the LA Times (!!) maybe 12 years ago on just this theme. Never read anything like it, before or since. You actually could not tell the reporter's own position.

But he reported very fairly and comprehensively on how the abortion issue itself is reported. And he talked about this very matter, the fact that positive terms are reserved for abortion proponents, while opponents are described in terms of what they are against. Thus the image of the advocates of slaughter is positive, while the champions of the innocent are painted negatively.

Should be:

Pro-life

Pro-death

Those are the choices. To kill an unborn person, or not.
