Watch Jon Stewart Blast Crossfire - Must Watch

Man I was pissed off when I saw that. Crossfire was one of my favorite shows and Stewart, who was obviously invited to make jokes, bashed there show just because they have debates. This from a guy who had John Kerry on his show and gave him the softest ball questions out there. That's why politicans love Stewart, because they'll automatically look good.

It also showed how unfunny Stewart is without prewritten jokes, and when Carlson mentioned that, Stewart called him a dick. What a fucking prick that guy is!
 
Then, as last night, you didn't understand the context of what he was trying to do. As I said you shouldn't watch Fox because they are a propaganda network for the President, CNN is just as bad with their news, and John was trying to point that out... "You're hurting the country", etc... that's what he meant. And he was 100% right. Here's a good gauge for you to go by. If Gold9472 no longer has to post the news, then you know the "news" is doing their job.
 
How is Fox News propaganda for the president when they make specials on global warming?

You need to start doing some of your own research. We don't say these things because we're fanatical lunatics.
 
I'm just asking. Why do you think Fox had a special on Global warming? Sure, they're right wing to a fault, I just don't think they're 100% behind Bush. Very few conservatives anywhere are.
 
Didn't you post a video of that here a while ago? At the time, I could watch video here, and I watched the first half. I agree that Fox News is right winged biased, and goes by the politics of Ruppert Murdock. CNN is liberal (though avoids the big stuff like you have here), and MSNBC, as far as I'm concerned, is entertainment, not news.
 
Yes, on all sides. There is a reason I despise just about anyone who bases their career on politics.
 
I take everything I hear on tv with a grain of salt, no matter what the source.
 
Well that's what the media does... and they repeat it over and over and over again until you believe it.
 
I only watch tv news for entertainment anymore. I don't believe what O'Rielly or Hannity or anyone else on the news says just as I don't believe antioxidants help you lose weight (something I saw last night in a commercial).
 
Well... not only does Fox tell "Half-Truths", and "Non-Truths", they promote the policy of a fascist President.

That's not why he did that. He did that because he thinks punditry is bad for the country. Even on his show he spoofed Hannity & Colmes because they had heated debates. And after Stewart made that remark showing what a jerk-off he is, Carlson pointed out that he gave Kerry soft ball questions and how unfunny he is without a script. Stewert even tried to make jokes but they were freakin horrible.

Bottom line: Jon Stewart = Duece Bag
 
One of the things you see on 'outfoxed' is how white house 'talking points' are distributed to right wing media, where they are repeated ad infinitum almost word for word. You hear the WH press secretary say something, and then you hear Fox news parrots say the exact same thing on their 'opinion' shows. And the you hear the same verbiage on conservative radio, and pretty soon a gullible population believes it.

In fact, W even tells us this:

"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda."—Greece, N.Y., May 24, 2005

Thats why fox news is propoganda - they are not really interested in fulfilling their duties of analyzing the government and exposing lies and corruption. Their corporation benefits from administration policies, and therefore its in their best interest to keep repeating nonsense.
