I'm like the Pope when it comes to this board and politics. Anyone that believe Fox News reports unbiased factual news has their head up their asses. Thats like saying CNN has factual polls because they use facebook. American news sources suck because they are controlled by morons. NPR is good, but I prefer BBC.

stop making shit up. NPR doesn't know how to sensationalize.Originally posted by NewbieChris View PostAnd so does NPR. I've been listening to NPR since before you knew what the War on Terror was, so don't start with me.
BBC on the other hand knows how to be hip and knows how to edit etc..
NPR is simply boring ass old people talking about news.

What is old to you? And NPR has guests on, not just old people. And I guess you missed the BBC news hour on NPR. Thats all I'm gonna say about that. You are such a fan boy when you need to be. What do you think about the AP?Originally posted by THE BOUNCER View Poststop making shit up. NPR doesn't know how to sensationalize.

Fresh Air on NPR is hosted by Terry Groos and I don't consider her old, was my point about age. As for BBC and AP and Reuters they all report news facts. NPR is liberal slanted more than BBC is slanted in anyway. Sensationalism isn't the same as a slant, so I just think its funny that you have that opinion.

nobody said sensationalism is the same as a slant. a slant is reporting news in a more republican way or democratic way etc..Originally posted by NewbieChris View PostFresh Air on NPR is hosted by Terry Groos and I don't consider her old, was my point about age.

sensationalism is **OBAMA HAS WHITE UNCLE AND HE MAY BE GAY** something you would see in a fox news head line.
make sure you understand what I am saying before you "think something is funny".
i would disagree that NPR has any kind of slant anymore so then the BBC.

Fox is entertainment news, definitely sensationalises at times. They do dare to say things others don't and it can be fun. Some of the stuff they say seems right wing but some of it just dares to say what the silent majority dont which is good. Yes many of the viewers are probably a bit right wing and its well known that the south has more right wingers so hence probably alot of the viewers are from the south. But I think there is probably a fairly big contingent from middle America that feels like they've been forgotten by other channels.
For me the debates are a breath of fresh air but yes I do take them with a pinch of salt. Just watching Glenn Beck now talking about the black panthers for example, showing them in militant uniform marching and that guy Farakhan preaching that Obahma is the messiah. There saying that even with evidence of the BP's being militant the guy that decdides when the state should prosecute isn't doing anything there but is going after the CIA over its interrogation methods.
They draw too simple conclusions and emit reasoning and facts and sometimes it seems this is because they don't want them to get in the way of a good story but other times it does appear its because they cut through the bullshit and get to what its all really about. It is an interesting channel to watch and some stuff like the Jaycee Lee story they will no doubt do a very good job on, and like when soldiers get killed and their families cal in, they go the extra mile in giving condolences to the families and stuff.Last edited by Mr I; 08-28-09, 02:04 AM.
