I'm more of CNN person, but I enjoy Bill Oreilly on fox.

Who here likes CNN better then fox news?

    Bill O'Reilly? Right... I'll just leave that one to someone else tongue.gif.

    I like the BBC news smile.gif. I find them to be the best news source as far as just stating the facts and not including any bias in their news.

    I hope nobody watches Fox News and takes it seriously. I mean, they certainly aren't the most 'em...reliable people.

    On the rare occasion that I do watch news it's either CNN or KHQ.

    *sigh* I watch Fox News but not for the editorials. I happen to like Brit Hume, thanks smile.gif Oh and Tony Snow was the best! Oh, and Bill and Hannity are douches and the thing is... on every news station you have bias because of editorial shows like theirs. CNN certainly has them too except they're normally left leaning. Fox News still has credibility and it annoys me when people demand I find another source for a newslink even though it's perfectly credible. If I find the same story on BBC then they still don't care and discount Fox News even though the news link was credible. I don't get it.

    Oh and not to mention what Fox is doing is obviously getting them ratings wink.gif If you don't like them hit them where it hurts the most and don't watch.

    That's cause the BBC rawks.
    They even showed the Goatse Olympics symbol tongue.gif

    The best news program, though, is definitely The Day Today.

    It's not that great...I just prefer it to all the other crap that we are spoonfed over here dry.gif. The quality of reporting in America is terrible and the media is controlled mostly by a handful of people. Usually you only get one side of the story..

    Some are fine with that though so tongue.gif.

    I don't watch any news. It's all biased. I just go by ear and if I hear something important, then so be it.

    I actually only watch the Daily Show and the Colbert Report.

    Those shows are actually surprisingly good tongue.gif.

    And I would give you the whole lecture about being informed about what is going on in the world but you are probably sparing yourself from a lot of depressing topics tongue.gif.

    Speaking of depressing topics... my mawmaw watches Nancy Grace. Is it just me or is there ALWAYS something on about
    a woman getting raped//kidnapped//killed or something terrible happening to a child?

    O.O

    Just seems like there's NEVER anything good on that show.
    && I don't really watch news either. I read our newspaper though.

    Yeah that's essentially like what happens on Greta Van Sustern's or however you spell her name's show on Fox News. She always covers those white pregnant wife's murders or whatever. And they're always white. And they're always pretty. Funny how that is rolleyes.gif

    Reading the newspaper is good enough, btw tongue.gif

    Yeah!
    They're ALWAYS white and pregnant. AND pretty. Hmmm.
    I wonder why they decide to pick certain people to talk about on that show when so many people get kidnapped or killed or whatever.. Hmm.
    Oh yeah. I don't know if you saw my post or not, but what area of MS are you building houses in? The coast?

    I replied but you must not have seen it. It's in Starkville which is odd because it's supposedly pretty civilized?

    I missed it! And couldn't remember which topic it was in, lawls.
    && I'm fairly close to there, I guess. Although when you look at a map of the counties it looks like it's across the state
    from me. I have never been there, so I really don't know anything about it. >.<

    Edit: Duh. MSU is there. I forgot about that, ahahaha.
