Wake UP Foxnews?! What is the deal RE: Polish Prez!

Posted on 04/10/2010 7:26:41 AM PDT by ConservativeMan55

The head of an Ally to the United States and many of that country's elite leaders are dead.

Why is Foxnews not having special coverage?

To me... you cancel this prerecorded business block and bring in some heavy hitters like Bill Hemmer or Megyn Kelly.

And second of all it took Fox forever to even come on and report this.

What is going on? They are providing almost NO coverage.

Memorial ceremonies for 20,000 Polish soldiers slaughtered by the Russians in the Katyn forest after WWII.

It's being reported that relatives of the slaughtered soldiers were among the 90+ other people killed on the plane.

Freaky circumstances.

They crashed in the same forest because that was the reason all of the dignitaries were on the plane in the first place. They were going to commemorate the massacre.

Everything isn't a conspiracy theory. It could just as easily been a case of having to go around several times, then being 'authorized' by someone on board to go below minimums so they wouldn't have to divert elsewhere.

CNN International (grrr) has the best coverage on this...it’s usually buried in the basic channel lineup.

I just caught a long and detailed report on BBC World News - another one of those "other" all news channels floating around on my television.

And once again the lesson must be taught. There’s a reason the TV comes first in “TV news”, Fox News’ first job is to make “good” TV, “good” TV being defined as TV that brings ratings so they can charge more for their commercials and make the company more profitable. If anybody actually becomes better informed watching their “good” TV that’s a nice bonus, but it’s entirely besides the point. A plane crash in Russia involving a bunch of people that most Americans don’t know who they are and half your talking head can’t pronounce their names is not “good” TV, so Fox focuses on something else, something “good”.

“Fox News is unbearable on Saturdays.”

Have to agree. Seeing Clayton, & that other metro, in the morning is too much for me. Can’t watch that crew for long. I’ve been noticing Clayton showing up more during the week day & always wonder “why is he here?”

So, FNC has found this business block on Saturday mornings to be “good” tv ratings-wise? I find that hard to believe.

Right......

And I also disagree with his assertion that Poland is a place where most Americans could not pronounce their names.

Especially Foxnews viewers are very smart. Not dumb at all.

I don't believe it. When the Saturday morning Buckner's bunch start raving and yelling over each other, I turn the channel or turn the TV off. That is usually within 5 minutes of the program opening.

I noticed that too, maybe the saudis are paying them to downplay everything,

“After bin Talal purchased his voting shares in News Corp., on September 23, 2005, he stated in an advertising supplement to the New York Times, “When I invest in a group like CITICROUP, the Four Seasons, the News Corp. or Time Warner, my objective is not to manage those companies.” But this is not quite accurate, considering the Prince’s December 5, 2005 statement given to Middle East Online regarding his ability to change what viewers see on Fox News. Covering the riots in Paris last November, Fox ran a banner saying: “Muslim riots.” Bin Talal was not happy. “I picked up the phone and called Murdoch... (and told him) these are not Muslim riots, these are riots out of poverty,” he said. “Within 30 minutes, the title was changed from Muslim riots to civil riots.”

Mainly they put these business shows on.. on the weekend to try and promote Fox Business Channel which I heard is struggling.
