    We have already said that Fox News is the propaganda wing of the Bush administration. I guess this just confimrs it.

    Yeah, this sure closes the circle doesn’t it.
    I am constantly amazed at how much worse this
    bunch can be every single day.
    The funny thing is that I expect we have probably
    only heard about 10 percent of the evil.

    In the words of Junior’s uncle Gomer Pyle: Surrprise, Surrprise.

    propaganda is propaganda, it has a reason for being said – usually to try and win the ‘hearts and minds’ of the audience…which TP provides, as well as FOX & the Linclon Group…the difference is FOX is not as quick to use facts or honesty in their propaganda, meanwhile TP makes every effort to provide RELIABLE sources for what they report.

    6.6 BILLION PEOPLE alive on earth to date!
    Do you Really believe All That are Born UNBAPTIZED Are headed for HELL?
    I Think not, as a matter of FACT, I think those who ARE Baptized are going to HELL!


  14. Zookeeper says:

    Freedom, dude, chill. What the hell are you talking about?


  15. jjw says:

    Randy– You should move to France, or better yet Cuba or China. There’s no room for misinformation in a democracy. But places like Cuba or China pump it out all the time. So maybe you’d fit in better there.


  16. Matthew J. Price says:

    Is there any way to legally strip Fox news of its media outlet status?

    Freedom is off his meds again, happens now and then LOL

    the only authority to strip Fox of it’s license is the same organization that had a hissy fit over the Jackson wardrobe incident. Headed by Bushco cronies, so do not expect them to pull the license of Bushco’s propaganda arm. Not gonna happen, at least untill one of the Houses is out of Repug control.


  19. Marie says:

    Who better to conduct propaganda disguised as fair and balanced news?
    This is not unlike Carl Cameron doing a fair and balanced news interview with GW, when his wife is tight with the Bush family and works for his campaign.
    These guys are so accustomed to propaganda, they can’t recognize it any more, much think there is anything wrong with it.



  20. JIMBO says:

    Makes you wonder if Fox could probably be getting secret funding from Dubya and Congress wihtout us knowing about it.
    Wouldn’t that be illegal? Is that why the media is asslick up to Dubya and his Fourth Reich crew?


  21. David says:

    Looks like Rummy’s Office of Strategic Influence is still up and running, despite the clamis to the contrary.


  22. RunningDogLackey says:

    #12 France was single-handedly delivered into ruin by Bill O’Reilly’s boycott.

    It is no longer an escape option.

    I guess we’ll see you in Baghdad — garden spot of the Tigris, and emerging “democracy deluxe”!

    PS: Don’t believe everything you read in the papers.


  23. im4mary says:

    This is getting almost, like, incestuous!


  24. Jane E. Schneider says:

    #21, Jimbo: they probably don’t need secret funding, Rupert Murdoch has all the money they need.

    There HAS to be something that we can do to bring down Fux “news” AND this administration. Aren’t there any REAL investigative journalists around?

    Randy, STFU! Why don’t you go and be stupid somewhere else?


  25. Randy says:

    I think I’ll make some popcorn and enjoy the show that the democratic party is putting on. They are imploding as we speak yet no one except Joe Lieberman realizes it.


  26. Wayne says:

    HAHAHAHAHA
    Thats a good joke Randy

    Especially when its the Rethugicans that are imploding from the lies that are being caught, the scandals the indightments, the convitions.

    That was a joke right? If not, you are the joke


  27. Coach says:

    The trolls are absolutely pathetic. This has to be the “B” team. If it was up to me, I would cut them all, and try out a new crop of gullible morons.



  28. WHO says:

    #25 Riggs Bank New BCCI


  29. Ryan Neat says:

    If Fox is involved, you know that no truth is in sight.
