I found an article on a source about "Illegals With No ID Flying Commercial Unimpeded"

Perhaps you can comment on the believability of this story. Haven't seen it yet on CNN!


You are watching the wrong channel. CNN gave up reporting the News.

The problem with all political speech is that it's opinion.
Being opinion, it is extremely easy for those who disagree to call that opinion false.
This is a complete and true refutation of the addictinginfo, um, info.

IOW, my opinion trumps yours, because it's mine.

THEY ALL LIE, ALL THE TIME! They are tools of whichever news mogul owns them. Murdoch is ultra conservative and so his news is skewed toward that end. The others are skewed the way their owners want them skewed.

It is best if we take ALL with a big grain of salt. In fact, it would do well to believe NOTHING any of them say, because if they don't out and out lie, they skew the information to such a degree that it may as well be a lie.

I don't know how ones finds out the truth, but I do know it won't be found on any news cast.

In the first place, those are very very unlikely to be facts of any sort.... I just googled the same question/statement about MSNBC and found nothing like it... ie the media will not put on the same information about MSNBC even though it is probably as bad (supposedly) or worse than Fox news... I do love that the picture attached to the article is of Sean Hannity, NOT a news Caster, an Opinion Generator.....

If it come up, I am attaching a pie chart of a question about Climate Change statements by Fox and MSNBC... very enlightening...especially since the chart was originally found on MotherJones..... a paragon of un biased journalism....

and Especially since the chart shows that 92% of MSNBC's comments on Climate Change have been correct.... Do I, do you, believe that......

Look, Senator Obama was asked about his birth cert and a lot of other stuff, like what he wrote about while in university, why he applied for scholarships as a foreigner. He was not very forthcoming on any of these things while he was running for the office of the president. This raised suspicion which I do not find unusual. He produced a copy of a birth certificate after how long? I don't have a problem with people appearing on Fox still asking questions about that. I think that ship has sailed, and there are a lot more pressing issues with this administration.
The follow the law only when it suits them, there are too many examples of that to list here. You may be OK with that but I and many others are not. And the Lies, not just about lying under oath about sex but lying to the American people about soo very much. I am sure you know the list. This is why some of us worry when CNN, and the others don't ask any questions of the DEMS especially the President. This is what worries us, "The Most Transparent Administration in history"!!!
Look, Senator Obama was asked about his birth cert... (show quote)

These people are phonies. The take a small article from the "West something or other news" and try to make it look like it was the WSJ.

The people who read it, can't read, see only what the want and truly make fools of themselves.

The website itself isn't open minded. It has an agenda. it's nothing but a racist, bigoted rag.

Steve,
I watch "mucho newso" (too much, in fact), on several channels. Due to the coverages of the 2000 election cycle and 9-11, I switched from NBC-branded channels as my primary to others. Over time, I put FOX in as my primary. This means I watch Fox first on a major event, than watch the coverage next on others. I have found that I seem to key in on CBS and CNBC (for business stuff).

Why did I drop NBC (outside of CNBC)? Their coverage of 9-11 was somewhere between subpar and horrible, thus opening the window for others.

Anyway, to your comments on FOX, I will say that I have never heard a "lie" on the news on FOX that wasn't corrected later. Do I hear some off things on their various entertainment, talk, and specialty programs? Of course.

To your specific comment on the Kenya thing......NOPE! FOX never declared Obama a citizen of Kenya, period. You are wrong. They Did cover the story when many! such as Trump, were stirring the pot, but the news on FOX NEVER declared it as such.

As one last aside, I have noted over the years that those who have the most vitriol for FOX never really watched FOX. I bet my neighbor, who was always dumping on FOX, to watch the news for 7 straight days (I thin we settles on Shep), and to give me specifics on lies, misdirections, etc. to make it worth his while, we made a reasonably large bet. He lost, I won, and a local charity got the dough!

:)

Unlike the Liberal Media out there , Fox is the only outlet that moderates and Conservatives have to turn to.

Was if FOX NEWS Steve or one of the Opinion segments... one has to separate the one from the other....

I could, with impunity, declare that MSNBC is one of the worst lying programs on the Television and "IF" i was using Ed Schultz as the reason for my statement, I would be right.

I have stated on here at least twice, that since I down graded my "Dish" plan, I no longer get Fox News and now get 90% of my news from CNN and 10% from MSNBC (of the major TV networks)

CNN is obviously and undoubtedly biased to the Left as Fox is biased to the Right..... CNN, in my opinion of watching them for a month or a little more now, "lies" or could we say stretches the truth on occasion, And as a relatively intelligent person, it doesn't take but a minute or two to figure it out....

One of the Major things I like about Fox news was that they have "opposite Opinion" commentators on their news stories..... They also have Bob Beckel on the Five as a regular........... I love Bob Beckel, but he is one of the most rabid Left Wing commentators I have ever seen.... but at the same time, if he is proved wrong..he admits it..always with a caveat of course.....lol
Oh, and Alan Colmes is on somewhat regularly..... and Alan is not only the worlds most Biased Left Winger in the world, he is basically an idiot... Then of course, those that come on to comment on a particular segment of what is going on in the world...

And once again, good ole Steve03 shows that he is the number one asshole on the UHH... and Steve, I wish you would just answer one question... Why do you feel it is necessary to use a very derogatory name for the Tea party.....????? I assume that in your juvenile brain, you giggle every time you write that and think that once again you have issued a earth shattering witticism. You haven't, you have just shown your total inability to carry on a useful and non nasty conversation...

Oh, not that it matters to you, I am not a member of the Tea party, and the likely hood of me becoming a member is very small..

One poll during the Iraq War found that about half of Fox-TV viewers thought that we went to war with Iraq because they were responsible for the 9/11 attacks. (For you Fox fans: they weren't! )




Careful now, you are treading on sacred ground... LarryPayne and Whole2th will be after you in a nano-second..

When will you in particular and all fox haters in general understand that Sean Hannity is not FOX NEWS....he is an entertainment/Opinion purveyor.....

When you accuse Fox News of Lying, provide the proof on the NEWS segments, not on the opinion segments...

So far we have had videos shown as proof of Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Judge Jeannie, Mr. Huckabee, and many more... ever last one an Opinion not NEWS................
