BF2S Forums WTF is wrong with Fox News?

Yo Centerville!

Fox "News" is the National Enquierer of TV land.  For chripes sake - WHO CARES ABOUT AMERICAN IDOL????  (Oh, I am going to get flamed for that!)  Seriously - I love it when they go to a crime scene and guy points at the pavement and says

<serious deep voice>
"And THIS is where the body fell..." 
</serious deep voice>

NBC local news FTW.

(This thread probably means nothing to folks outside of the Washington DC area.)

LMFAO @ Kaos....

Hell, it seems that FOX and CNN are both on the hunt to scare the shit out of people. Everyday is Halloween!
TERROR THREAT: ELEVATED! and all that shit, are just tactics used by the media by the GOP to have us in the sack!

Who was the Roman emperor who did the same thing? I'm thinking of the dude who came after Hadrian and killed his brother...

A quote from the great Bill Hicks, that in my mind like a lot of his quotes are still relevant today

"I don't understand anything, so there you go ... You know what my problem is? I watch too much news, man. That's my problem, that's why I'm so depressed all the time. I figured it out. I watch too much CNN, man. I don't know if you've ever sat around and watched CNN more than, I don't know, 20 hours in one day ... I don't recommend that. Watch CNN Headline News for 1 hour, it's the most depressing thing you'll ever fucking do. 'WAR, FAMINE, DEATH, AIDS, HOMELESS, RECESSION, DEPRESSION. WAR, FAMINE, DEATH, AIDS, HOMELESS ...' Then, you look out your window ... [makes cricket noises] Where's all this shit happening? Ted Turner's making this shit up! Jane Fonda won't sleep with him, he runs to a typewriter: '"By 1992, we will all die of AIDS." Read that on the air. I don't get laid, no one gets laid!' I'm writing Jane Fonda: 'Will you fuck this guy so we can get some good news, please?' I want to see a well-laid Ted Turner newscast: 'Hey, it's all going to work out. Here's sports.'"

what the fuck, everytime I turn on this channel I see the stupidiest shit. The correspondents are retards. But the hosts of the morning program, "Fox & Friends" take the cake.

This morning they are broadcasting live from London, with the program entitled, The London Bombings! One Year Later!!~!one OHNOES!

Why are these people trying to strike fear into everyone. Everytime I turn on this network I feel like they are trying to scare the shit out of me.

WTF!!

That's every network man. It's all about the ratings. FOX is biased, CNN is biased, MSNBC is biased, they are all biased.

They are ran by humans, who have views. These producers decide what goes on the air. There is a list of stories, and they run them. Someone types up the story, another chance to slant it.

FEAR = RATINGS = AD MONEY = HAPPY EXECUTIVES

Well, I think that the "personalities" on Washington (D.C.) Fox news are especially cheesey.  I know that Fox is a national (maybe even international) entity, but I am not familiar with their broadcasts in other places.  So, that's where my comment comes from.

OMG, Fox really reported on the 1 year anniversary of a major terrorist attack in London.  Holy shit wow golly gee.  Bias, Conservative, hate, propaganda, scare the Pajesus outta me. 

Go Hemp!!!!

Having not seen it, I'm not going to comment on the program in question, but...what the hell? You think there is only one network that uses 'sensationalist fear tactics' against the public? Phtpththb.

I don't even watch TV, and I think I'm a bit better off for it.

their morning show is quite gay, but then all the morning news programs are, especially that daily buzz, what is that? World news cliff notes for middle schoolers?

oh you mean local? all our local podunk stations sux, in fact nbc doesn't even have a local newscast

Its FOX News.... WTF did you expect... Nuff said

Whats wrong is that there are no Foxes on it, and no news either come to think of it.
So it should actually be called "                "
