Let me first apologize for *initiating* an OT post, which I don't like
to do. But this is such a clear example of the "fair and balanced"
network's abuse of the facts that I couldn't resist.

I doubt you notice any bias or abuse of facts in other news networks

Neither have you. We're talking about news here, no the opinion shows.

I'm sure the group would entertain examples, if you actually have any.

I watch the full gambit and see bias on every "news" story from every
source. Have you been programmed not to notice?

I'm wondering how *you've* been programmed to tell where the bias is. Do
you spend a lot of time in the field doing reporters' legwork? Or do you
receive it through some built-in antenna? <g>

In other words, what makes you think it's "bias," unless you can nail down
something specific, like that FOX News report for which I went back to the
source?

It's hard work finding out what lies behind these things. FOX usually
doesn't make it so easy as they did on this one. They're very good
propagandists.

Usually, when a liberal reporter mentions a conservative and spits every
time...it's a dead give away.
