Pick a target, polarize it, freeze it.

I firmly believe the “FOX LIES” shouts and the signs we’re seeing at the protest are being orchestrated by Organizing for America people or a Soro’s group. (or both)

The reporters there should get those people to interview and ask for specifics. LOL.

That’s pretty much all they’ve got.

They can’t defend their own failed policies.

As much as you detest Bill O’Reilly, I challenge you to give me an example of one program ....

Sheesh. That statement could be addressed to liberals AND conservatives.

Ask half the FReepers around here (me included); there is less and less evidence these days that Fox News is "conservative".

Liberals are accustomed to having a monopoly on what stories get presented to the public and the spin. Fox News is a tiny break in that monopoly on TV. But because it is the only break on TV, it seems huge to them.

Simple the left, liberalism and Progressivism are a “Mental Disorder!”

Second, Marxism and its variants cannot handle opposing ideas, let alone facts which compete, challenge or refute their beliefs, ideologies and constructs.

Because liberals have nothing to say. They are about robbing, controlling, and dominating. Fox is a challenge to their megalomania, as is talk radio and the internets.

The left can’t stand any media that doesn’t toe to the party line.

The writer nails it - FOX pundits may lean right during the evening opinion shows, but the worst that can be said about their news broadcasts is they are marginally more impartial with their reporting methodology than the competition, and sometimes even run stories the other news organs purposely omit.

The other networks are wall to wall leftwing spin.

Fox and Friends, O'Reilly, Beck, Hannity. Fox News doesn't call itself 'conservative' but you sure here a lot of conservative views. On just one of the above in just one night you will here more conservative views than you would here on all the other channels in a month.

This is standard Alinsky gangster politics: "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it ..."

The Left simply cannot tolerate opposing opinions. It's totalitarian by nature: their way or the highway.

Their ideas and ideology is exposed when there is a competing viewpoint allowed to be heard.

Since their ideology is based on lies, their ideological “father’s” “native language”,

they can’t stand for something that counters their viewpoint, because people see right through them.

Reporting on the doctors handing out fake excuses in WI:

CNN: Praises the doctors for providing a public service

FOX: Condemns the doctors and teachers for unethical conduct.

There is no point in talking about media ideology with a liberal.

These buffoons think the Washington Post, the New York Times, MSNBC and NPR are the epitome of “fair and balanced.”

Compared to all the major news networks and institutions in the United States, Fox, with all its faults, has more integrity than the whole lot.

Liberals will only be content if every American was forced to watch Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow everyday for our daily brainwashing.
