wow fox actually owning up???
Why Now???
Disappointed? Upset that your blind hatred of Rupert Murdoch wasn't affirmed? I wonder when the vast majority of Democrat-voting journalists will be fired? Never, of course. Only an idiot thinks there is a vast right-wing controlled media empire out there manipulating content.
You can bet Chris Matthews won't be fired for getting all "tingly" over Obama.
Um...one person being fired doesn't mean anything. She was a PA. A girl who gets coffee and makes sure that that the scripts are followed.
And I don't think anyone was saying that there is some "vast right-wing controlled media empire out there manipulating content." It was one network. Fox News. Period.
They hitched their wagon to Bush and now they don't care because they learned how to shock people without Bush's help.
"And I don't think anyone was saying that there is some "vast right-wing controlled media empire out there manipulating content."
Now, Hamy, pay close attention ...
"Obviously,you haven't been paying attention or you would realize that Chris Matthews is - as Stephanie Miller aptly once described - a right-wing tool.
"...and as this campaign heads into general election, the conservative bias of corporate media will be even more apparent."
And, there you have it! LOL
At least half the goofs on Propeller claim all media are run by right-wing corporations.
Yes and the other half of goofs are wrong in their thinking,and I use the word loosely.
That's because they are owned by right-wing corporations. But, it isn't some conspiracy. It is a fact.
Understand?
Murdoch owns a lot. Zell now owns a lot. And there are only 4 major companies who control the media now.
Those 4 compnaies are run by conservatives, typically.
See? No conspiracy. Just facts. Fox is the only one of the major news networks who drastically changed news copy or its presentation to warp the story to fit their ideology. That is also a fact.
One example is when they reported that Toe Tapping Senator Craig was a democrat on the news crawl at the bottom of the screen.
No more need be said. That wasn't a mistake. That was manipulation.
Not so libs, not all media is owned and operated by the right wing, but to deny any ownership and influence is naive. The same is true for liberal bias. The bias is usually influenced by the money regardless of which political spectrum owns the media source. Very few media sources today are unbiased. Therefore, many of the reporters and journalists working for them are as biased as their bosses, but there are still a few left that are not, like, in my opinion, Tim Russert.
Propeller duplicity
Obviously,you haven't been paying attention or you would realize that Chris Matthews is - as Stephanie Miller aptly once described - a right-wing tool. And Matthews has hardly been "tingly" over Barack Obama.
...and as this campaign heads into general election, the conservative bias of corporate media will be even more apparent.
