And you apparently miss the point on what “more biased” means. Since we’re both missing points I guess we’re at an impasse.
What counts is that I get evidence not just platitudes. It is always worse to fabricate news, consider once again creationism, your effort on minimizing this as just a competition with biases is really reckless, it is once again requesting that a false equivalence should be imposed so then no “bias” should exist when creationism or ID appears.
Also the point that you are continuously trying to evade is that there are several huge items that FOX is either misrepresenting what the actual experts report or its just making up news with continuous repetitions and no acknowledgement whatsoever on how wrong they are.
Remember, as the earliest studies showed, FOX is doing this regarding global warming for more than 10 years, and also for more than 10 years the so called investigators of bias from the right are unwilling to also acknowledge how wrong they are on how they go on looking for bias in the media regarding that issue, that to me is a very easy test to see if one should rely on those so called “detectors of bias” from the right.
One pretty good summation of Faux News:
Fox Has Absolutely NO Journalistic Ethics, And Here’s A LONG List Of Their Lies (VIDEOS)
Faux has been caught in lie after lie.
FOX is to the Republican party what PRAVDA was to the Communist party.
Or as they would say it:
Some say, ignore Faux News at your own peril.
And Dan Rather, an important anchor for many years at CBS, was caught in a major distortion that led to his resignation and has been accused of others. That doesn’t excuse any actions by Fox but lets not pretend that Fox is the only outlet that plays with the facts.
As noted on the many examples presented, FOX does not punish nor corrects any falsehoods that they peddle even after more than ten years have passed. FOX still misleads their viewers and has never corrected the reported misrepresentations of what the science actually says regarding global warming and even creationism on occasion.
Suffice to say, your example actually demonstrates that at least the real news outfits have shame and **stop **drumming on manufactured news again, and again.
I commentary on the news, I can predict that tonight it will be a criticism of any thing Obama says, or does. If he solved all the worlds problems , made every one rich, I think they would say he was possessed by the devil.
According to their business model, they have to do this. That’s what Faux news is built around, catering to the far right. It’s their job to give their viewers/sponsors/etc what they want. If they don’t do this, they lose $. It’s why they have so many ‘opinion’ shows vs ‘news’ shows that seem to parrot the exact same theme. The other news shows might be left, but they dont rely on it for a business model.
If Obama personally defeated Satan in hand to hand combat live on TV Faux news would still have to get up in the morning and spend their day bashing him. Probably something like ‘Obama thinks he’s god now’ or ‘Obama handling problem with violence yet again’ or ‘Obama wouldnt have needed to do that if he hadn’t outlawed guns’.
Since this is Fox we’re talking about, making everyone rich would, by definition, solve all the world’s problems. And they’d never say Obama made them rich; they’d say that everyone made themselves rich after the government got out of their way, and that Obama should have done it sooner.
She should be fired for incompetence. All news sources are biased. Every single one. Even the face in the mirror.
Well, according to the cite above Rather had questionable ethics for nearly 40 years before it got him fired. It also shows that people at the very top of CBS were willing to distort the news and figured they’d get away with it, probably because they had in the past.
Then there’s the fiasco of Juan Williams being fired by NPR for, apparently, talking on Fox news. That’s not the reason given by NPR, of course.
News sources are biased, all of them. We generally listen to those that appeal to our own biases and villify those that cross them.
The book “Bias” and Fairness in media have been discredited many times in the past.
Nope, as pointed out you still have to find a comparable outfit that misleads its viewers for more than ten years and in a subject that will affect their descendants for many decades into the future.
Once again, bias is present in many outfits, but manufacturing news is indeed something else.
But it is notorious that Goldberg and his book Bias are mentioned, as I pointed out before it is really bad to cite “experts” on bias that show gross negligence and clueless when they are incapable of noticing that their own bias is breaking their bias detectors.
I decided to just look around how Goldberg sees the issue of global warming, did not have to look far to find out that indeed, he is just one of the blind leading the blind:
So how wrong is the mentioned “bias expert”? Criminally wrong.
As I mentioned before, it it was just bias what we are discussing I would expect to see guys like Goldberg just tweaking the news, but that is not the only thing that they are doing. They depend on discredited sources of information to manufacture controversy where the is virtually none. And in a subject that is bound to affect all, no matter what biases one has.
Once again, spectacular failures on identifying bias in the media like that **ongoing **one should make anyone doubt about most of what the current right wing experts in bias report as such in the so called “liberal media”.
Does that include the near depression and 2 wars that Bush Jr. left us in…notice how many rich were made by his policies. Remember he inherited a surplus that was used up before he left office!
I guess the government was out of the way then, was it not?
You mean Bush Jr. (D)
That’s ancient history and in no way relevant to the current situation. It’s hardly even worth mentioning the name of George W. Bush. If you want an example of a modern Republican president, you need look no further than Reagan.
I think you know I meant GW Bush.
