I've never seen another cable news show with a more balanced line up of journalists and contributors. How about Alan Colmes, Bob Beckel, Doug Schoen, Geraldo Rivera, Juan Williams, Mara Liasson (I could go on and on, but those are the more famous ones) who are all liberals and are always invited to give their point of view. Can somebody tell me when was the last time Keith Olberman, Brian Williams or Chris "I felt this tingle going up my leg" Mathews had a conservative on their show to give their point of view? I would to hear the answer, but I doubt the Kool Aid drinkers have anything to say.

This is just so out of touch with reality it is hardly worth a comment. You can like Fox, but to consider it balanced reporting is absolutely ridiculous. It shows how out of touch you are with the world according to anybody but the far right.

I (and millions of others in this country) do not consider Fox to be a news organization. They are right wing propaganda all the time, even when they put weak, ugly "leftists" up as foils or faintly put on the charade of just reporting.

And comparing individual pundits to a 24 hour cable "News" organization with regard to airing balanced perspectives is likewise ridiculous. News reporting is something that by definition is supposed to be neutral. Pundits are not.

And to the question of this thread, I suppose you are not opposed to foreign owned businesses as long as they are the right foreigners (double meaning intended).

I have absolutely no problem with that. There, I answered your question, now please answer mine. What news organization does present the news "fair and balanced" without any propoganda? Please, I am awaiting your response. This is going to be comical.

We disagree. Let's just leave it at that. Good people can disagree. I do not see a point to dragging this out. Have a good weekend.

China buying the Dodgers? Why am I not suprised- all I can say is I hope it never happens. Really.

As far as the above named brainwashing cable news stations, it is obvious that they are all guilty of blacking out (for the most part) information that the public should be aware of. They manipulate their viewers minds, and are NOT fair and balanced. The only thing F#X news has going for them is Judge Napolitano, HE is the only thing fair and balanced about them IMO.

And what's up with C*N covering Republican debates? LOL LOL LOL

Seek alternative news via the internet. And don't sell the Dodgers to China, PLEASE !!

Sincerely, Clayton

If you don't like the Chinese, root for them buy the Dodgers...Money pit all the way, an industry filled with jerks who are your de facto partners and an anti-trust exemption to boot. It broke Fox's back in a few seasons and the Chinese will quickly tire of the nonsense. I mean, can you imagine the PRC at the table with the Steinbrenner spawn or that moron who runs the Orioles?

LMAO! What flavor is the Kool Aid today? You (and millions of others in the is country) can sit there and criticize Fox News all you want, but the fact is, as I said before, they hold 13 of the top rated 15 (and all of the top 12) cable news shows on TV and is BY FAR the top rated and most trusted source for television news. That's not "out of touch with reality," it's a proven fact!

Do they lean right? Certainly! But do NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSN and every other network lean left? Without a doubt. The difference is, as I pointed out before, at least Fox News has guests on their shows to give other point of views where those other networks do not. So, let me get this straight. Fox is not balanced reporting, but instead "right wing propaganda all the time," but Keith Olberman, Brian Williams, Chris Mathews, Katie Courik, Anderson Cooper (I could go on forever) do report the news fair and balanced without any propoganda? Your comments are a joke!
