"I Lost My Dad to Fox News"

[Deadbolt]

I often do but it's always back when I return.

Guaranteed that whoever changed it back was irrationally angry (or following the orders of someone who was irrationally angry about it).

this came on pandora as i was reading it:



especially funny considering it's his generation that are the ones the article is about.

Was that tracy chapman?

I'm so glad that my dad and father in law aren't this stupid. Both enjoy politics and both recognize foxnews for the sham it is. I'm very very fortunate.

I'm in this camp, too, thankfully.

My parents seem to get more liberal with each passing year so I'm good. And my father in law is conservative as hell but can't stand Fox thankfully.

Not sure anyone would ever assert that MSNBC is middle of the road.

My dad and mom watched it religiously. Since my dad passed, my mom watches TVLand.

This is what happens when they cancel Matlock.

 

[ChrisL68]

It's out there in syndication. Believe me I know.

Matlock (And its predecessor Perry Mason)
In The Heat of the Night
Seventh Heaven

All parental favs.

Which would be a valid response if the Fox News narrative was "Someone like us shouldn't be President"

hot snarky blondes?

 

[bmoneydeac]

Really interesting article and completely lines up with my FIL. He's become much more anti-science, paranoid, etc. in the last 5 years. He probably consumes 3+ hours of Fox News a day.

Do you know anybody who worships at the alter of MSNBC? Do studies show that MSNBC viewers are tragically uninformed?

My Fox worshiping MIL counters the published UMD study about Fox viewers with a conservative blog post.

The difference is that MSNBC doesn't hide what they're doing. Their slogan is "Lean Forward."

Fox News pretends like they're an unbiased news organization by having slogans like "Fair and Balanced" and "We Report, You Decide."

CNN is so middle of the road it is painful. No matter how ridiculous one side of an issue is or how out of touch with reality its supporters, CNN can be counted on to give them equal airtime/printspace and report the whole thing without telling the viewer that one side is stupid. That kind of reporting doesn't help anyone, either. When someone is completely FOS media should call them on it.
