I have read with some amusement your Fox bashing, but I had to respond because while you must be allowed your own opinions, you are not allowed to have your own FACTS. Where did you get your information for your 'FLASHBACK' to 'Election night 2000'? Did you just pull it out of your ass???

It was NBC/MSNBC that first 'pulled the trigger' for Gore in Florida at 7:49:40pm, followed by CBS/CNN at 7:50:11pm, next VNS (Voter News Service) at 7:52:00pm immediately followed by FOX at 7:52:01pm, the AP at 7:53:00pm, and finally ABC making the last call at 8:02:00pm.

Now rant all you wish, but get your facts straight before you rant...

FYI : O'Reilly said FOX was 1st to realease the data Gore won.
Ask him why he said that, not me.
Those are the facts as reported by him!

"by FOX at 7:52:01pm"

NOTE : Still before 2nd Time Zone polls closed.
FOX "forgot" there were 2 time zones in FL.

How do you explain this about our "beloved FOX".

Hollywood Avoids the War on Terror PING
"...that the war on terror is not the subject of a single U.S. feature film already produced or in the works...."


We can add News Corporation aka FOX
to the list of Hollywood Lefties who refuse to make any movies about the war on terror.

Fox Television Studios
Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp.
Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment
Twentieth Century Fox Licensing And Merchandising
Twentieth Century Fox Television
