Thanks. So they’re still in Cruz Control mode?

I hope the millions who are now losing their health care policies and being forced into huge financial loses because of that not only remember Obama and his lies, but also WHO enabled him all along the way.

I think ignoring this story does them more harm than good. Lots of people are pissed! and seeing their plight be ignored will further enrage them.

If they think it helps Obama they’ll do it. But what’s happening is the further erosion of their own credibility.

Long ago, I stopped watching the nightly news casts as I realized it’s all propaganda. When Fox News came on board I was a regular viewer. But I no longer even watch Fox News. It is just another propaganda arm.

I hope more people stop watching the leftist media drivel. They have NO credibility.

But what do they substitute for their news source?

Dude, maybe you’ve got to retire and start your own network!

They are still very much in Cruz Control mode. It won’t stop until they’ve stomped into a mud puddle and walked him dry.

But I think they are in for a bit of a surprise with my Senator :)

They’ll realize how screwed them...but the Dems play on the fact that Americans by and large have short attention spans. They might be pissed off now about what Obamacare is doing to them but they won’t remember one year from today when they...yet again...pull the lever for a Dem.

And the media knows people are pissed...they are desperately looking for a rose to bloom from this pile of sh*t known as healthcare.gov. And until they do...you won’t hear anything in a hard news story in the MSM about any kind of “outrage”...not until they can minimize it with 3 or 4 success stories.

Thankfully I don’t even have AFN hooked up in my house right now so I’m completely delian on the Internet for my news. And I agree wit you on Fox. Especially when they feature repeatedly in a day the very man behind the treason being committed against Conservatives like Cruz Lee and Paul....Karl Rove.

The numbers show the MSM’s audience across all formats is in a death spiral. Sadly they had such a huge bace to start with that it will take them a long time to complete the plunge.

Similar here.

For years, I didn't have cable. In some TV markets, the evening news would be on the half-hour on one station and on the hour on another. So, I would watch 2 network news programs.

I noticed that they carried basically the same stories. The order may have varied, but some of their stories were nearly word-for-word.

Additionally, I noticed on slow news days that they would headline a recent poll they commissioned. [Of course, anyone with 2 working brain cells knows that polls can be manipulated to return a 'desired' result.]

Then, there were the infomercials disguised as 'news', usually for new medical/pharmaceutical offerings.

When I got cable in late 2002, I watched FoxNews day and evening. Over a short time, it got to be the same ole night after night -- same ole guests, same ole experts, same ole topics. I haven't watched the evening venue since the last election. I also turn it off after the morning headlines.

During the Anna Nicole Smith situation, FoxNews carried Breaking News and News Alerts every day, several times each hour. I counted the Alerts for 28 straight days. I turned FoxNews off after, except for the morning headlines, after that ridiculousness.

As you said, it is propaganda -- including FoxNews.
