I thought you guys liked immigrants. Roger Ailes came to this country and made a success of himself. His businesses outside of FOX News are also very successful. You guys just don't like him because he's not dependent on you for handouts.
Guess what, I don't give handouts except to the needy.
Again, I ask- If a disgraced Democratic Administration planned a news channel to spread one side of every story when all stories have 2 sides and then the chief planner of that channel was part of the administration and became the founding president of that channel, could it be called "Fair and Balanced?"

Obviously, you've a lot to learn about confirmation bias. If you think the world is flat, and only one station tells you that it is, of course you are going to trust them the most, regardless of how true it is.
If you ask people "Is the news source you watch the most trustworthy?" you will naturally get 100% of the people saying "Yes".

Roger Ailes was born in Ohio. You're probably thinking of Rupert Murdoch.
And Liberals have nothing against rich and/or successful people. (Just Friday I was talking with Ben Cohen of Ben & Jerry's). We object to rich people who use their wealth to game to system.

So much that our system of government is now a Plutocracy. Co-opted by the SCROTUS.

Once again are showing clearly that you absolutely do not know anything about FOX NEWS. They always present both sides. How do you think they came up with the Fair & Balanced trademark. You guys are just going psycho because you can't keep brainwashing people with that some old liberal drivel anymore. When FOX came up with that Fair & Balanced description of their news presentation they really struck a nerve because the public already knew they were being lied to and in appreciation they ran to FOX News as a safe haven from the liberal media.

You don't suppose that they may have compared FOX to what else is available and decided that FOX was more trustworthy from their own experience. Remember, FOX is not beating these other channels by a little bit either. The numbers are way beyond what would pass as an acceptable plus or minus fudge factor.
If you don't mind James I think this will be my last response. This is not the sort of thing I enjoy or want to spend a lot of time with. So, in the tradition of FOX News you would be welcomed to have the last word on this subject. I will even check back to read you response but no matter what your response is I am moving on. Best Wishes.
If you

They are complying with federal law signed by Bush and acting under Judicial rule dictating that immigrant children be treated with kid gloves. We are not talking about criminals. We are talking about children stepping up to Border Guards with arms raised in surrender. They are guaranteed under law to be housed and cared for appropriately until they they can be represented and seen by a judge.
BS. All are crossing with no constraints. Its for the children, more BS. NO police or military force is required by any law from any president at any time to obey an unlawful or non constitutional directive. Period

You know nothing about my viewing habits do you????? I know all about my viewing habits!!!!! Yes I have watched FOX! If you think it is 2 sided you are completely deluded! Yes, they have the opposition on and that is what it is. It is not a fellow American in their view. It is the opposition, the enemy. They don't have the enemy in there for other opinions. The other opinion is never expressed. Within the first few words a tirade of venom spews from the host to shout down the enemy in seconds. I can imagine O'Reilly standing in front of a mirror before the shows wathing the cords stand out on his neck, his face redden and his lip curl practice to demean the enemy.
Also, I used to watch the Schizophrenic University, a comedy show that would send me into fits of laughter. I never saw psychoses be so funny.
Now you know that I have watched.
And now for the 3rd time:

You are absolutely full of it, with the remarks you make it is quite apparent that if you had watched Fox it was for one selected show. Stay with your MSNBC, ABC and CBS or any other liberal news you enjoy and please do not talk trash concerning a subject you have proven to know nothing about. Thank you.

Guess you never will. I have learned about it, lived it and studied it first hand. One more time you sir are just wrong.

Check out PunditFacts for FOX and others. In a post above you'll see the Pulitzer Prize winning site found more Mostly False ratings and Pants on Fire ratings on Fox than any others including MSNBC.
Why should anyone trust a channel planned by Nixon staffers? And they had a poster boy with Schizophrenia for years.

A few facts: Gop Says: Obamacare is horrible and will kill economy. Not true and over 70% of Republicans who have it like it and want to keep it. GOP says: Minimum wage increase kills jobs. Not true, it's never come true. In individual states where minimum wage has increased, jobs growth out-paces neighboring states without wage increase. GOP says: Auto bailout (It was a loan) will kill the economy. Not true, Auto industry in far better shape than in 2008. Housing starts up since 2008. Obama kills jobs. Not true, private sector job growth for over 50 straight months.
GOP says: Getting rid of Bush era tax breaks will kill jobs. Not true, private sector job growth continued after taxes reverted.
Conservative FORBES magazine says: "If You Want a Better Economy, Vote Democratic" True history bears it out. Revised history doesn't.
Why do you not know this? Fox didn't tell you. If you base decisions on misinformation will you make the right decisions?

Your liberal communist mind really does not know crap does it. Everything you have stated is a lie or a misconception of reality. You are the one who needs to pay attention to a balanced news source and back away from the commie news junk for at least a while. When you come back to reality I promise you will feel better about yourself.

I'm sorry it just doesn't fit into your ideology! I know that you are too stubborn, old and set in your ways to learn. Guess what, with a little effort, you can research them all and then you'll know I'm right!
It's much easier to tell someone else they're wrong and rant about it than to open a closed mind and learn something. Do you really enjoy to be super pissed-off 24/7? Maybe you could lower your blood pressure meds a tick if you werent so crazy mad all about nothing. Much ado, much ado, much ado about nothing. Well not really nothing, you see we got this N...... in a White House!
