M.Dancer Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 I guess some people are more concerned about terrorism on U.S. soil than others, even when it doesn't involve foreigners. More speculation. The terrorists a\re behind bars....now ruin along a prove yur assertion be finding that current fox story about the knicker bomber Quote RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us
waldo Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 Of course there is a difference. (glad you acknowledge they are both on the home page, shamne waldo doesnn't have the decency to be as honest) I've clearly informed you of what I saw shortly after noticing this thread - again, when I checked it was not on the main home page and was not featured on the sub-section U.S. News home page. As I said, there was a link on the U.S. News home page, to the actual story/pics. That MLW link you have repeatedly presented is a direct link to the 'drill-down' story/pics from the Fox News web site... the same story/pics you would have reached when selecting that direct link available on the Fox U.S. News sub-section home page. So, again... at the point I looked, which was shortly after this thread went up, the story was not a highlighted story on any home page... it was simply a linked-through story available off a link from the U.S. News sub-section home page. but what's your point? Are you truly arguing for the sanctity of the Fox News 'fair and balanced' position? Truly? Cause, really... we could have some real fun with that... I understand there are several 'media watch' type web-sites that have made it their focus to bring out the hypocrisy within Fox News 'fair and balanced' position. Are you sure you're really... truly... arguing for the sanctity of the Fox News 'fair and balanced' position? Do you also revel in the gospel of Fox News' Beck, Hannity & O'Reilly... Palin, too?

Born Free Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) The G&M Story? unless my cache is going for the max, it is on mine. Must been your cache. It fell off the home page entirely yesterday afternoon...now its back with a new one liner buried at the bottom. Lets face it, Fox News isnt interested in being a news outlet. Having creeps like Beck & O'Reilly on there kinda puts them into the "Dirty Laundry" aka whackjob catagory. Edited April 1, 2010 by Born Free Quote

M.Dancer Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 Actually the story fell off the home page yesterday afternoon. Correct, relplace by newer news...and now with another developement it is back. Currently it is at the top of the list...later it will fall as more news is slugged. Still no sign of the underwear bomber, which is surprising given: If it were an islamist group that planned a terrorist plot, it would have stayed in the prominent three the rest of the year.

Pliny Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) It seems there is a lot more sensible anti-government sentiment out there worth covering above that of what an extremist right-wing militia group can offer. Need we list what the left wing is trying to ignore? Edited April 1, 2010 by Pliny Quote I want to be in the class that ensures the classless society remains classless.

BubberMiley Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Posted April 1, 2010 The Climategate vindictaion story has gone... Again, after months of coverage of climate-gate, one would expect they would soon bury the story that exposed it all as an orchestrated attempt by Koch Industries and Exxon to make dimwits believe that climate change doesn't exist.

BubberMiley Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Posted April 1, 2010 I agree. One would need a rather large tinfoil hat to think that the entire scientific community conspired to trick the world, but it was all exposed by a few lines from an out-of-centext email. But you'd also have to have futures in aluminum (although aluminum is a different metal than tin) to think that FoxNews' coverage is always perfectly unbiased.

He brutally pwned you. Move on while you still have a shred of dignity left. Oops, too late! P.S. Your litany of false premises is amusing. (ENTIRE scientific community, A FEW LINES in ONE email, ALWAYS PERFECTLY unbiased). That's quite the standard you hold Fox up to. They gotta be always perfect huh? Pathetic. Quote
Topaz Posted April 1, 2010 Report Posted April 1, 2010 Speaking about FOX, they have come out and accused Alex Jones of being an instigator of violent web comments. The following link will show Alex telling Fox just what he thinks and tell them there just as much violent comments on their websites. I listened to the video and Alex does make sense about what is happening in the US and Fox and other medias are after him from telling the truth and he can back up everything he says. http://www.infowars.com/fox-frames-alex-jones-as-instigator-of-violent-web-comments/ Quote
BubberMiley Posted April 1, 2010 Author Report Posted April 1, 2010 They gotta be always perfect huh? Nope. Everybody has some sort of bias. There's actually nothing really wrong with that. Though it is funny watching dancer spin cartwheels trying to prove bias doesn't exist at Fox. What I'm doing is showing that Fox's bias extends so far that it will actually downplay incidents of domestic terrorism if those terrorists are right-wing anti-government christians. And I think the contrast between Fox not mentioning it at all anymore yesterday while CNN was giving it the most prominent placement possible speaks volumes. Even to those who don't want to hear it.

Dithers Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 I have to admit this story surprised me. I could not imagine that kind of barbarism up here. Perhaps I am naive. Quote DEATHCAMPS BLARG USA! USA! USA!
Pliny Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 And I think the contrast between Fox not mentioning it at all anymore yesterday while CNN was giving it the most prominent placement possible speaks volumes. Yes. CNN is really biased. The left is ignoring plenty? They are losing the battle....ohh sorry, did I say "battle"...I apologize....that's a rather incendiary term to use, I suppose. Anyway, it is getting harder and harder for the media and left wing moderates to defend the WH agenda. I notice Barack is trying to appease the right somewhat by opening up some off-shore drilling, visiting the troops in Afghanistan, and a few other things I forget at the moment. These will really rile up the far left and I am sorry to bring them up as that too might be construed as incendiary.

M.Dancer Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 Though it is funny watching dancer spin cartwheels trying to prove bias doesn't exist at Fox. Au contrair. Bias exists. What I am doing is showing you don't know what you are talking about, and posted falsehoods which I corrected fairly well. Paerhaps the next time you get your knickers in a knot and consider posting some drivel about a story you happen to think isn't being covered, you will pause and actually check. I doubt it but pershaps you will learn that it is easier to make a fool our of yourself than not to. Quote RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us

Paerhaps you'll read the OP and see the story I linked to (so I guess I must have "actually checked"), and paerhaps one day you'll admit there's a hierarchical difference between "links" on the Fox site.

Everything is a liunk on the site...oh that pesky intraweb... But whether a new story gets a splash and a day old story gets a promoininat link is an editiors decision. While claiming that a vindicated climatoligist is old news etc etc...is the decision of someone who is too partisan and too mushy headed.

One is a registered Democrat, and the party affiliations of the rest could not be determined.Jacob J. Ward, 33, of Huron, Ohio, voted as a Democrat in the 2004 and 2008 primary elections. He also voted in 10 other elections since 2000. Link Quote
