I might watch a few minutes in passing on the other networks but that's about it. I can't stomach the liberal crap that is being broadcast on those other channels, and I'm sorry to say that Fox is following in their footsteps when it comes to this liberal, Bush-hating Hollywood culture. I've said this before and I'll say it again.....Name one anchor or host on Fox who has ever made a pro-life comment. Completely taboo. They'd be called a right-wing zealot if they defended innocent human life. Contrast this with the absolute freedom that their employees feel they have to promote sick and perverted gay cowboy movies to their general viewing audience. I don't turn on Fox News Channel to have the female host sitting in the center chair (who I presume Fox would try to pass off as mainstream) tell me that "for those of you who might be concerned that this movie (Brokeback Mountain) is pushing an agenda, it doesn't do that at all", and "it's a great movie". Gay Hollywood always has an agenda, and this movie is what it's all about. If Ms. Chetry wants to cheerlead for that filth, maybe Fox isn't the network for her. Or then again, maybe it is.

The powers at Fox may not realize that there are decent folks out here in middle America who don't appreciate the promotion of the homosexual agenda. They need to wake up.

Also, when I think back to the Schiavo case, I'm reminded by the fact that Fox did the exact same as all of the other networks on the story, and that is to paint Terri as some sort of worthless vegetable who was justifiably being dehydrated to death just because perhaps she couldn't feel anything anyway. These "medical" ghouls that they had on their network gave me a creepy feeling. "She's totally at peace", "she's in no pain", "she's feeling euphoria", etc. were commonly used terms by these so-called "experts". All of this terminology was filling the airwaves to achieve one goal, and that was to make us all feel good about what was happening to this poor woman and her family. The comments of Shepard Smith and Judge Napolitano during that time were shameful, as they practically acted with glee with each passing hour of Terri's dehydration.

Fox is becoming a shock channel. It makes one wonder why they didn't keep Rita Cosby. If you ask me, her show wasn't the only piece of liberal trash programming on Fox.

You know, I was going to respond to you with some reasoning, and even a list of Fox anchors I've seen stand up for the pro-life cause, like Brit Hume, Tony Snow, Cal Thomas, Fred Barnes, E.D. Hill, Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly. O'Reilly did stories on Planned Parenthood's Christmas cards that would be called hit pieces by any pro-abort. Did you see anyone else in the media grilling the president of PP over those cards, or grilling the folks from PP at all, which he does every time they come on? Of course, I'm just mentioning those for the record.

You see, after reading this line...

...I realize you've kind of lost it. You apparently missed Sean Hannity's impassioned pleas for her life and gentle treatment of the Schindlers. You also missed Joe Scarborough on MSNBC, for that matter, who never pulled a punch. Or O'Reilly refereeing debates about it and saying only that the case had convinced him every adult should have a living will so it wouldn't come to a court fight.

In all seriousness, I suggest you stop getting your news from TV. That's not a lib-crap "If you don't like it change the channel" suggestion. Instead it's based on the fact that something is coloring your perception and/or expectations, and you will continue to be angry and not really get anything out of it.

To be frank, your post reminds me of the emails Bill O'Reilly gets where two people watch the same segment and one accuses him of being a looney lib and the other accuses him of being paid off by Halliburton. Like those writers, you've lost your ability to rationally evaluate the content, in this area at least.
