I voted no...but....

While Fox occasionally says some important things, this is because they are the only main conservative MSM on TV, so they cover stories that the other all liberal MSM otherwise ignores for being inconvenient, like Hunter Biden's laptop.

That being said, Fox is essentially the conservative version of MSNBC, it is full of half-truths and omissions, and they only cover stories faithfully that are convenient to their agenda too. No MSM is the good guys, they are consent manufacturers for their respective national committee special interest platforms, which are purchased by corporations and billionaires.

Sun Tzu was wrong, sometimes the enemy of your enemy is not really your friend, though MSM would certainly love to force you into this false duality and get you blindly cheering on the 'right team' while they cornhole you

Pretty much my thinking as well. Half-truths, omissions and an agenda.

I remember my father was a big Bill O'Reilly fan. He watched pretty much every night. I remember us talking about Bill and me saying that Obama could cure both AIDS and Cancer and O'Reilly would still find a negative in it. He would be like:

"Sure these curse are great and all but what about all the people now that stand to lose their job?!? How is this going to affect our economy now??"

While an extreme fabrication, this is pretty much essence of how Bill and even Fox News operates. (Well pretty much all MSM.)

Oooh! Nude photos of Hunter, and no evidence of wrongdoing!

I think that story better recommends the media source for ignoring it.

If you're really into revenge porn, there's sites for that.

When you have been right recently? Perhaps a reconsideration of your positions is in order.

    No. I'll be honest and say I'll watch a Tucker video if someone sends it to me, but that's it.

    All mainstream media is wholly ran by zionists and has been proven to be full of shit time and time again. If you don't understand this, you're a useful idiot, literally. The 24 hour news cycle was created and abused to keep you under an authoritarian thumb while you stare at it like a zombie. It's all propaganda and spun to promote an agenda. The majority of the population in the US is advocating for their own demise, and the box in your living room is the most useful tool to this end, maybe a close second to the internet.

    Hard yes or no? No.

    I used to like their news division. It was always hit-or-miss on their opinion shows. Now, I have to filter through their website like any of the big, Democrat powered news networks. Their News Headlines channel on Sirius/XM radio is still pretty good.

    I used to be ok with Tucker. He is a caricature of his former self now.

    I only like Tucker Carlson, each and every other one of their anchors and pundits is full of shit in my opinion.

    Huh, apparently I'm only one of two people who likes Fox News. Only the site though, I don't watch it.

    Y'all should watch it, bump my stock price up.

    [–]Godknight 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    I love Fox News. It's the most trustworthy MSM outlet. Sure, they mess up details and occasionally fall in hot water with half-truths.

    But they do not receive the same (government) funding as the other Mockingbird MSM agents.

    Fox News is currently handling 2 defamation court cases with billions of dollars in settlements. They cannot afford many more slip ups. They will back down and stay truthful or go broke.

    I don't wanna see Tucker Carlson unemployed. As soon as he has no security they/them will assassinate him. They have already tried.

    Sean Hannity, Jesse Waters and Laura Ingraham are much needed political commentators.

    Without Fox, there would be no Trump interviews, no Elon interviews, no Kanye interviews, no Candace interviews.

    Thanks for your honesty.

    What's not to unquestioningly love and adore about controlled opposition? The fact that I'm important enough to conjure an illusion that I have any voice whatsoever makes me moist.

    Goooood Moooorning California. Now - by agreement with our OP - I should like to admit that the majority of those taking this here survey do not 'love Fox News' as I had previously claimed. OP has shown that a sampling of Saiditors don't 'love Fox'. So I will agree that my comment was wrong. More on that in a minute.

    The votes:

    Do you like Fox?

    No = 10

    Meh, Tucker is okay sometimes = 12

    Yes = 6

    If we see 'meh' votes as 50/50, that leaves:

    No ~ 16

    Yes ~ 12

    Pretty darn close.

    Very good of BP to set up this particular set of questions, which give more information than simply, 'do you love Fox News."

    So I admit BP knows Saidit more then I, but I have to wonder why the survey results appear to be inconsistent with Saidit's front page posts that reflect news at Fox, Sinclair Media, Murdoch media in general, WSJ, Info Wars, OANN, Breitbart, New York Post, communities.win, patriots.win, Daily Mail, the Federalist, Parler, Gab, Gateway Pundit, ZeroHedge, Washington Gazette, Russian Times, Blaze, Daily Stormer, the Free Thought Project, and 99% of sources I mentioned at /s/shitpostnews a year ago. All of them push the same GOP talking points (anti-Ukraine, anti-vax, anti-trans, anti-black, anti-women's rights, anti-human legal rights, anti-voter, anti-clean-air, anti-clean-water, anti-climate-change, anti-teacher, anti-education, anti-history, anti-science, anti-facts, anti-99%, &c). Just look at 'audience interests' and 'similar sites' here, where communities.win is the top website similar to Saidit, followed by bitchute.com, gab.com, patriots.win, leakedreality.com, etc (idk much about the other sites). Also look at the rather low score Saidit gets on at Scam Detector.

    Thus, if the majority here (by any margin) do not like Fox News, why do they post and discuss the same talking points? I am puzzled.

    If I say something positive about regulating pollution, or trans rights, or publically funded education, or helping blacks, or anti-racism, does that mean I love MSNBC and the Democratic party? No it does not. Correlation is not causation.

    No...just establishment Republican bullshit.

    I remember what they did to Ron Paul, and what they did to Trump.

    Fuck them

      Play against Trump... OK, whatever.

      But shutting down Ron Paul though, that is a SERIOUS FUCKING CRIME.

      The guy was going to be POTUS with any kind of level playing field IMHO. Independent? NO PROBLEM.

      As far as mainstream pundits go, I probably agree with Tucker's takes more than anyone else on cable TV. He seems to be the only anti-war, anti-interventionist voice (well, except for China but few 'conservatives' get that right), and he has on guests that no one else will touch. There is plenty I disagree with him on though, his economic / business viewpoints are overregulatory and socialist. Also I know it's his schtick, but that dumb open mouthed stare thing he does with people he disagrees with is really obnoxious.

      As for Fox itself, there is really nothing worth watching and they're as bad as CNN / MSNBC and all the other trash. The last good show they had was Andrew Napolitano's. I don't buy the sexual harassment story; sure I guess anything is possible but it seems more likely they just wanted to silence someone who was speaking truth.

        I don't like propaganda PERIOD. Tucker makes fair points, often enough that I will watch when one of his videos comes across my feed. That's the extent of my appreciation for fox news.

        OTOH, I may watch clips from MSNBC or CNN or other WE LIE TO YOU media just to get a laugh at the bullshit they try to make people believe or how stupidly they try to misdirect or redirect the public's attention.

          No matter what you do and no matter what you say you will lose this war because you are divided.

          Divided means that all of you are running in different directions and believe different things.

          Islam is United. China is United.

          Those are the two major players that will win in the new global marketplace.

          It doesn't matter if you like Fox News or you don't.

          It doesn't matter if you like Trump or if you don't.

          You are losing.

          In China all of their military is highly trained martial artists that can kill you with one finger.

          In the United States most of our military is a bunch of people that joined the military because they couldn't find a job and they are fat and lazy and can't fight.

          All of this nonsense in the news about the LGBT they are being played like pawns to create chaos in the United States. They are pawns in a Kings game.

          We are headed into a time where there just simply isn't enough resources there isn't enough food and water for everyone on the planet.

          The only solution to save some of the people is to begin a new Holocaust where approximately 6 billion people or more will be exterminated.

          The Colorado River is almost empty. The Mississippi River has been running dry. They say the Euphrates river is running dry.
