No doubt, many of you have been glued to your television sets, as I have, waiting to hear the latest events happening in Florida and Election 2000. My husband and I tend to switch from Fox News, to CNN, to MSNBC, to catch the recent updates that have...
The O’Reilly Factor TV program is featured every night on Fox News at seven central times. Bill O’Reilly is host of this show and is a no nonsense kind of reporter and interviewer. He takes no prisoners of either party he will not stand for guest who...
Pros: The occasional non-biased news item Cons: Political opinion dressed as journalism for the simple-minded
"Think globally - act locally." Yet another well-meaning philosophy which has been usurped and perverted by the mainstream, and turned into little more than a hackneyed phrase used to peddle half-liters of designer mineral water, or the latest painfully...
Pros: Fun to tune into when you want a good laugh Cons: Rude anchors, one point of view only -- THEIRS -- much more opinion than news.
Here's a confession: I live in a divided house, at least when it comes to cable news television. The main times I'm exposed to the toilet of Fox News is when I hear my husband listening to it. HE likes it. And that's a conundrum that I'll never ...
Pros: Great Fairy Tales Cons: Cannot be trusted to report the truth.
As I watch Fox news these past couple years I watch it with an entirely new aim. To guess how many times in an hour this station may present any portion of factual information. They have lost all credibility in my household and here is why:
Pros: fair-bias, shouting matches, fun shows, detailed, comprehensive..... Cons: i am now way more informed than I ever wanted to be
Being a republican has convinced me that the entire mainstream media is liberally biased. It is due to this fact that I have stayed away from most news coverage and let myself be informed by select sources outside the mainstream. If you disagree that...
Pros: News all the time; Inclusion of the public Cons: Interview with Psychics and open mic
The recent Washington scandals involving Clinton and Lewinski, Jesse Jackson and the mother of his illigitimate daughter, Chandra Levy and Gary Condit show how much coverage the cable network can give to issues of sex, affair, romantic relationship...
Pros: You can avoid it if you know its channel number Cons: Overuse of patriotic images, coins terms such as "homicide bombers"
Ever since the late President Ronald Reagan and uber-conservative Republicans in and out of the government claimed that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which oversees the Public Broadcasting System (PBS) had (and supposedly still has) a ...
Pros: FOX News Let's you hear both sides of the story. Cons: Their critics don't want you to hear both sides of the story!
Sure, Bill O'Reilley is no doubt conservative leaning. Sure Sean Hannity IS unashamedly conservative (but Colmes is there for balance... who's fault is it that he's outclassed and outgunned on most issues?
Pros: Shows conservative viewpoint. Has several very good liberal political analysts. Cons: It is conservatively biased, and too much celebrity and sensational news. Geraldo Rivera!
I consider myself a conservative, not necessarily a Republican, but I do like to make my own decisions without any liberal or conservative bias thrown in. Whatever Fox may say there is a definite bias to their reporting. I do not think they lean ...
Pros: Great News Shows, On Air Viewer Input! Cons: Focus on one or two major stories for weeks at a time
I have to admit I am a news junkie. I wait anxiously for the newspaper in the morning, go on line to see what I can find, have the Fox News Network on the television, and sometimes have news radio going at the same time too.
Pros: They'll grab your attention Cons: They do it by exaggerating
I'd be amazed if the quality of Fox newscasts across the country and the programming of the Fox News channel are as bad as those on the affiliate here in Dallas. If they are, I can't imagine why anyone would watch.
I hadn't intended on writing a review today, as I have a list of chores a mile long to do on my day off. Procrastinating my work, I was flipping through some Epinions when I came across several on the Fox News Channel. Some were unbiased in their...
Pros: The O'Reilly Factory, Paula Zahn, up-to-the-minute news Cons: Leans heavily to the right, some hard to take on-air personalities
During this election fiasco, I've been spending quite a bit of time going between Fox, MSNBC, and CNN. Fox's slogan, which they repeat often, is that their news is "Fair and Balanced". I don't care how many times they repeat the phrase, I'm...
Pros: They've got Geraldo. Cons: Where are they keeping him?
Let’s just keep this between us, but I have a dirty little secret. Sometimes I like Geraldo Rivera. It’s an on-again, off-again kind of thing. I’m fickle that way. I was as puzzled as the rest of the free world by that thing in the mafia tunnel. And...
