fox news provides both sides of each major story that is defined by the agenda defined by the liberal media. if fox news were truly conservative, they would be using their own conservative agenda to raise news stories.

i have only read what was posted, but it sounds like alan and i actually agree on this point.

Of course Alan is right. He's half the headline of one of FOX's most popular shows. But more Republicans watch FOX because it IT IS fair and balanced. You have your choice of Alan Colmes, or Lawrence O'Denial shouting "liar" at you any time you try to talk.

As much as I hate to say it he is correct in this instance.

I agree, despite the cries of right wing bias, I don't really see any. There is an absence of the total liberal slant of the other news, so by comparison it might look right-wing, but it seems fair and balanced to me. If anything, they seem more patriotic than conservative, and there is nothing wrong with that.

According to the liberals anybody that doesn't worship Lenin and Marx is extremist right wing.

Fox is fair and balanced. I would not want to listen to distorted news and lies, no matter which side. There is proof that ABC, CBS, MSNBC and CNN fake documents, lie and distort the news. This has gone way past just a liberal bias.

As for Colmes, agree or disagree with him, he presents argument and does not have hysterical fits and screams at a guest, "Liar, liar, liar." Lawrence O'Donnell is at best mentally ill.

Personally I think everyone has a right to their own beliefs. At least Alan Colmes is an honest man... all be it liberal. I will never forget when GWB won in 2000, he reached over and shook Hanity's hand and congratulated him on the victory. Alan is a classy guy and I don't beleive in calling him names just because he believes what he believes.

Yeah, I generally can't stand him trying to justify unjustifiable Kerry positions. Or lying about history.

My most priceless Colmes moment was his one-on-one interview with Algor.

Gore says that FNC is rightwing and Alan (and the Colmes enumerated list of FNC liberals) doesn't count as being "fair" to the left.

Colmes just about fell off his chair.

I don't think Colmes believes what he says sometimes - you see him force words out of his mouth because he has to say something.

Colmes is the least obnoxious of the liberal talking heads and I do think he and Hannity have a good rapport.
