Yeah, what was that all about? Are you so dense that you don't realize that media of every bias deceives you on a daily basis, and you eat that shit up like it's gospel simply because you agree with their bias and want to believe it's true.

The NYT fired Blair because he has a string of offenses to his name and got caught with it, and nationally embarrassed what is considered to be a reputable news source. Your dismissal of that offense as not that big of a deal simply because they fired him is unfortunate. You let them off the hook way too easily, only reinforcing my point.

And yes, you caught me, being a Canadian I clearly watch Fox News every day of the week, and consider them my "friends". Please, my news comes largely from CBC and CNN, neither of which are right-wing or "Republican" as you Americans would identify them. All I've ever watched from Fox News was youtube clips people linked on the internet.

Quick, put a fence on our northern border!

Shhh, I'm watching Bill O'Reilly over here!

Hey guys, look what Dan Rather of Fox News, I mean CBS said!

http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/20...n-rather-make/

I'm glad it's only Fox News that reports falsehoods though. We can see from the email exchange between Aaron and CBS that CBS will promptly correct the error and issue a national apology. </sarcasm>

Is CBS an arm of the Republican party as well, Xayd? Does Dan Rather bust a chubby everytime he sees an elephant? He must, because only right-wing sources of media would ever lie or deceive the public!

Do you want me to continue to provide more examples, or have you finally learned something?

[Xayd]

what's dan rather talking about an airplane have to do with faux organizing lies to promote the republican party?

misdirection denied.

You don't get it, do you? Fine, you want to get political? Lets get political. Does this sound familiar to you?

http://www.mediaresearch.org/campaign/04/rather.asp

It should because it contributed to the end of Dan Rather's career.

Is this political enough for you, or it doesn't count because it's not on Fox and, given that it was done in 2004 prior to the election, was designed as a boost for the Democratic ticket?

I guess you're allowed to lie if you're left-wing folks, nothing to see here! It passes Xayd's ethics test.

[Straw Man]

The funny part is guys like Hannity, O'Reilly and the rest of the looney bunch pretty much make fiction on a weekly(if not daily) basis, but Tom gets a hardon (like most do here) to say nasty wasty things about wibewals.

For you conservative (though you prefer centrist I'd guess, nothing like a self loathing conservative) masterminds, it sure must be tough living in a lieberal world. Especially when it looks like most agree, and do it vocally too. Ah, the plight of the vocal and oppressed majority.

Bull. If I see a repub conjuring up falsehoods I won't stand for it either. If they're acting like a snake (Savage, Levin), I'll call them on it.

Can we just through all these guys off a clifff?

I guess you missed the part where I said they're all fucking retarded, right? Let me remind you:

RTFT next time before you start making up .

I'm pointing out lying liberals because Xayd and others take them at their word without questioning, which is the definition of blind faith. They lie just as much as O'Rielly and Hannity and Coulter and all those other ones, people like yourself and Xayd just don't want to acknowledge it. It's difficult for me to go on a huge tyraid about Hannity and O'Rielly because I never fucking watch Fox, so I can't comment on anything they've said aside from clips I've seen on the internet. I do watch CNN, CBC, 60 minutes, read the Toronto Star, etc., none of which are right-wing or conservative in bias. That makes it pretty tough for me to come on here and make a huge rant about Ann Coulter or Rush Limbaugh. Sorry to disappoint you, because I know all you wanted to do was sneak in here and start throwing insults about some perceived Fox News dick sucking I'm apparantly doing just because I called Xayd on his .

You want to see liberals making fiction on a weekly basis and spreading it to the public? Head down to Hollywood and listen to some of those "politically active" actors. They spew a brand of that would make Fox blush. Whatever though. If you want to keep believing retards because you like to then go right ahead.

Glenn Beck never went to college (well, technically he got in a cool program at Yale for non-traditional students, took one class and dropped out, but yea...)

Sean Hannity dropped out of TWO universities, and did not get a degree.

Keith Olbermann has a B.S. from Cornell.

So yea, actually, one side's hosts is educated, and the other side's isn't. Not really absurd at all.

Bill Gates dropped out of university too, what a dumb fuck. Abraham Lincoln never went to college too, he must have been a total fucking moron!

George W has a Yale degree on the other hand, so he's a fucking genius just because of it!

Olbermann went to Cornell and studied communication arts. It's not like he went there and reinvented the fucking wheel.

My point was also in a general case anyways, but even if it wasn't, having a college degree does not make you intelligent by default. After graduating university, I can't count the number of people there who were "politically active" that didn't understand the first thing about the issues they were "protesting", and were unable to propose workable solutions to deal with problems they perceived. But, they were getting their degree in Peace Studies or whatever, so they probably know politics better than Abraham Lincoln ever did, since he never went to university.
