The two that ran last year, McCain and Obama, when compared to diseases came out like this. Obama is terminal brain cancer and McCain is drug resistant tuburculosis.
It is the same when comparing Fox against the rest. None of them are worth the stuffing in a bag full of dog doodoo.
Layout,
Sometimes you do just nail it ..... (leaving aside the "inside sources", "cover-ups", and "multiple shooters" of recent posts)
The reason that Fox is as popular as it is isn't because they are "fair and balanced" (they aren't), it's simply because they provide
an alternative to what the public knows is an otherwise obviously biased, left-leaning media.
Their popularity is a direct reflection how much people as a general rule prefer to be given the straight scoop, the honest dope - without all the spin, selective reporting, and the pushing of an agenda.
Fox in some instances does it (actual reporting) better than most, but they too have an agenda, and they are, despite the name (
Fox News, which is a misnomer), primarily in the
entertainment business (or so they believe, at least)
I mean, for heaven sakes - have ya ever watched some of the crap that they have on in the day time ?
Or the whackjob on at night ...... Greg .... what's his name .... Gutman ?
All I can say is scoreboard.
