FoxNews is providing aid to Hezbollah!
FoxNews Channel | 8/3/2006 | News Guys

Posted on 08/03/2006 6:17:57 AM PDT by pageonetoo

I am watching the news, and I see reporters showing the exact position where rockets are landing in Israel.

Great spotting guys!

If you agree they are harming Israel, at the expense of being "objective", please join with me and email them or better call them to ask them to be more responsible. Rant over.

This is why air superiority is the trump card of war.

We won the battles in VN, but the war was ended by the press!

Good morning.

No need to switch to appreciate most Republicans over most DemocRATs, even big spending RINOs.

Of course that has nothing to do with the difference between the rest of the MSM and FNC's coverage of this or any war.

Fox isn't perfect, since it fails to satisfy everyone, but it beats CNN or the rest of the media hands down.

I appreciate your position, however, it seems misplaced. DON'T YOU THINK I ALREADY WATCH FOXNEWS? I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT CHANNEL CNN IS ON!

Understand now? I figured your eyesight wasn' t too good.

Uh, on the ground in Vietnam, at the time of the Tet Offensive, the NVA was pretty much wiped out.

Unfortunately, the US had a bit of a problem behind our own lines (in the US) called Walter Cronkite and other MSM sources that declared Tet a crushing victory for the North.

John Kerry and his friends worked to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory in every way, but, in the end, it was the United States Congress denying the South Vietnamese weapons to fight the North for them self that caused Ho Chi Minh City.

So, what does this have to do with air superiority? The military didn't lose Vietnam, it was the American public who decided to quit that forced a loss.

Much like the Democrats are planning for our near future with respect to the War on Terror.

Good morning.
"Do you disagree?"

When it comes to Jennifer Griffin and Palkot, yes I do.

Jennifer Griffin has done yeoman's work during this war, along with Mike Tobin. David Palkot has done the same from Lebanon, operating within the constraints imposed on him by Hezbollah.

Jonathan Hunt is so-so to my mind, but Shep is a drama queen who shouldn't be allowed out of the studio.

My point is that it is a stretch to say that FNC has become slanted in favor of the Islamists.

Your critique of the Fox folk is pretty close. I would ban Shep from the screen!

I watched about an hour late the other night, some crooked mouth lady had two experts on and both said the Hezzes were winning the war.

I don't watch much Fox/TV, but I had to do a double check to see if I wasn't on MSNBC.

BTW.. what is SPOTD and SPOTW? If objectional material, FRmail please.

Folks gotta be willing to win. If you aren't passionate about winning then you lose. If we decide to lose to the Islamofacists then our children will have to contend with the problem much like deciding that Austria was not worth fighting about set up the horror that occurred a scant year or two later.

Whats the point of criticizing my point on air superiority that was addressing the issue of why rockets are not used like they were in WWII when you saw films of hundreds of rockets flying away from a mass of rocket launchers. My point was you can't do that with fast movers in the sky.

I'm not buying your accusation.

Me either. Israel doesn't have to accommodate the press to the extreme that we do. If the press was giving away info that was dangerous to Israel they'd be gone and everyone capable of logical thought would understand, unlike the left in the USA.

Stupid-post-of-the-day/week.

The posters assume an aura of superiority, and claim stake to "high and mighty"! It demonstates their maturity, and makes for nice talk among friends and drinking buddies!

SPOTD - Stupid Post of the Day
STOPW - Stupid Post of the Week (a much higher award)

The "crooked mouth lady" is Greta van Sustren (or Cistern, or something), and is the token left-winger for later in the evening for Fox (balance for Bill O, doncha know). She would be attracted to anything that made the US or Israel appear to be coming up on the short end of any conflict.

Stupid Post Of The Day/Week.

I'm not much concerned with opinion of my opinion but what I have been seeing is Fox making a left turn. They have The Judge, Greta, Clark and every other nay saying liberal disguised as a moderate on. It won't be long before the give Wesley Clark his own show to counter War Stories.

"I figured your eyesight wasn' t too good."

Thanks. The older I get the worse my near vision gets. My hearing too, but there's still no need to shout if you are just going to be talking trash.

Yeah, Greta was her name.. We don't have cable here (young kids, homeschool, limit trash commercial intake). Taking care of mom across the street, she had a "spell" and I went over to help her. Watched about all I could stand of Greta, decided Fox wasn't all that fair and balanced. LOL...
