If one is reasonable and intelligent the fact that we constantly have these anti FOX threads (and anti Rush threads, anti Murdoch threads etc) is evidence aplenty that leftists cant stand free speech

That its in their DNA to be fascists

That they couch their contempt for free speech in pretexts such as "someone on that network told a lie once" and other such nonsense is completely beside the point

You do realize that Fox & Friends is a talk show, and not the news - right?


Then they should not bill themselves thusly, nor be on Fox News:

Fox & Friends on Fox New Channel - follow Gretchen Carlson, Steve Doocy, and Brian Kilmeade Weekdays from 6AM to 9AM ET as they report on famous faces, health, heroes, legal issues and news you can use.


Are you going to hold MSNBC to the same standard?

I do. They're a bunch of biased idiots as well.


I was referring to her contention that an opinion show shouldnt be on a news network.

I was referring to both so-called News networks being a bunch of biased propagandizing idiots.

Excuse me! "reasonable and intelligent" is it?

How is it "reasonable and intelligent" to jump from a highly dubious claim about media bias to a charge that "its in their DNA to be fascists". Criticisms of specific media for alleged bias cannot be generalised to support your claim, it simply isn't "evidence aplenty that leftists cant stand free speech". It is nothing of the sort.

There's no evidence of fascism, no evidence relating to DNA nor is there any evidence to suggest all "leftists' share whatever DNA strands you are referring to. You haven't demonstrated the slightest connection between your (questionable) claim and your conclusion. None whatsoever.

In short, your post is flagrantly blatantly UN-reasonable and UN-intelligent - intellectual drivel. It would merit an F for FAIL at any primary school for a complete absence of "reasonable and intelligent" evidence or argument.

Excellent idea Lucy!

Though there is more than one candidate capable of winning that competition, I have to concede that one candidate on this thread is making a determined impressive effort to take 1st place.

Who could be the judges? I'd like to nominate people like Dark Steven and Polite, who are always serious, measured and calm in their assessments of what's happening, and pretty close to the centre of the political spectrum ...... (if they're agreeable of course)

Thanks for the link tazzy. It was oh-so-revealing.

I was laughing out loud by the time I got to the claim that "[Mussolini] was one of the most important socialist intellectuals in Europe and was one of the most important socialist activists in Italy".

And I gave up entirely when my eyes and intelligence were assaulted by "[Fascism] is a religious impulse that resides in all of us - left, right, black, white, tall, short - to seek unity in all things, to believe that we need to all work together to go past any of our disagreements and that the state needs to be, almost simply as a pragmatic matter, the pace-setter, the enforcer of this cult of unity. That is what I believe fascism is."

I prefer my comics to have cartoons!

Fired Keith Oleblowhard for his lies.


Looks like it was due to his violation of company policy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Olbermann#Suspension

On October 28, 2010, days before the 2010 U.S. elections, Olbermann donated $2,400 each to three Democratic candidates for Congress: Kentucky Senate candidate Jack Conway, and Arizona Democratic Representatives Raul Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords.[66] Grijalva had appeared on Olbermann's show immediately before Olbermann mailed the donations. In response, on November 5, MSNBC President Phil Griffin suspended him indefinitely without pay for violating a network policy which required employees to obtain approval from management before making political contributions.[67][68] An online petition calling for his reinstatement received over 250,000 signatures;[69] two days after the suspension began, Griffin announced that Olbermann would return to the air on November 9.[69]

Departure

On January 21, 2011, Olbermann announced his departure from MSNBC and the episode would be the final episode of Countdown.[70][71] MSNBC issued a statement that it had ended its contract with Olbermann, with no further explanation. Additional reporting in the days immediately following suggested that the negotiations for the end of Olbermann's tenure at MSNBC had begun soon after the end of his suspension.[72]

Youre joking right? 5 minutes of the Ed Show or Rachel Maddow have more misinformation than a week of Fox.

Think - discussing political leaders is fairly normal, its called politics

Attacking the messengers though, well beyond the point of obsession?

Frothing at the mouth over news outlets and media pundits who dont agree with your fringe views?

If there isnt a current thread in which leftists are worrying and wringing their cold clammy hands over why such oppositional free speech is still legal, it only means that one has got to be coming
