It won't kill you to admit that Mr. Hannity presented a falsehood....
Option B: It was hyperbole. Harvey taught me that's the other way to lie.

So, you'd admit that Mr. Hannity presented a false view?
I already told you, I don't watch the crap on fox news.

So, then you admit you don't have a frame of reference... Then why are you posting?

You can keep being dishonest....

More like people who care about the truth are offended by lies.

Anyone looking for truth shouldn't be watching cable news, or anything on TV for the most part.

Wrong guy, wrong venue and wrong approach. He fails to sway anyone and comes off like an idiot. That is deadly in the media unless you are Perez or Paris Hilton. And he is not. At least the last time I looked.
He got into CNN as a possible counter to O'Reilly but NO ONE kicks the O Man! :roll:
I think he was a small time anchor/reporter in the Miami area before moving into the "big" time. He has been trying out a "tough guy" approach to his interviewing - he actually challenged the batty "Chief Organizer" of ACORN the other day and did as good a job as anyone has in holding her to account. Kudos for that.
He is a Cuban immigrant to the U.S. and I sometimes see him broadcasting in Spanish on CNN International. He also tries a lot of physical stunts, sort of like Gerardo Rivera. He is not just a talking head so I will give him that as well.
But I do think he is feeling that the CNN family is ready to send him back South to the Everglades and maybe replace him with one of those gorgeous blonds from FNN. Maybe he felt the need to renew his street creds.
I don't really get your point beyond you think Sanchez is too ethnic, you have a serious man-crush on Billy O', and you mostly watch Fox news shows for the bimboid eye-candy.
Is there more?

Hey, I am INTO Latin culture and I am happy that Sanchez is getting a chance in the big time - he really is better than most of the talking heads on CNN (in his manly, burly ex-footbal kind of way, says my wife.)

I don't watch O'Reilly at all, but I do watch his bevy of gorgeous female co-stars! Why do you think he gets the ratings that he does? C'mon, admit it. You tune in for a chance to see intelligent, beautiful women talk. C'mon, fess up! :D

Just creating? I'd say they are catering to an existing generation of idiots at the same time.

Couldn't agree with Sanchez more, "we cover the news, NOT promote it"

Fuck Fox News

Fox is the "emotional entertainment" network. Their target market has no requirement for intellectual stimulation or fuel for rational thought, so they don't bother.

Yes, because numbers of viewers indicates Quality, Integrity, News Worthiness, or some other Higher Principle that makes them worth watching.

Fail.

CNN should start putting naked hot Lesbians making out in front of the camera. When everyone starts watching and people start complaining about Morals and such, just point out the viewership numbers as a defence!

Again x1000, patting yourself on the back for belonging to the biggest group of idiots in the world doesn't make the bus you ride on any shorter. Everyone else is pointing and laughing. The only thing Fox is destroying are the remaining brain cells of their already brain dead viewers.

Yes, because we tie popularity with validity. It's the American way.

Who is pointing and laughing? People gathered on the Internet? Please... say it ain't so Joe!


Another, better argument would be such.

When people turn on the news they like to listen to NEWS. If you want to say Fox is to the right, that is ok, by all means Fox is to the right. What you are failing at is MSNBC is so far to the LEFT it is not even watchable.

The only thing I can say about CNN is that the TV news really sucks. I bet you CNN.com receives more hits then any other news organization.

I don't watch any of those on Fox with the exception of maybe catching a few words from a segment surfing my way by.
I have never watched a full show of any of them from start to finish.

An idiot would be described as someone who thinks giving all these talks shows extra publicity is somehow hurting them.

Also see Rush Limbaughs ratings are way up since the liberals cant shut up about him for less then 30 seconds....

Keep up the good work! LMAO

Sanchez comes off as a ranting idiot. Nobody listens to him anyway, who cares?

I stopped watching fox long ago when it stopped being a news outlet and became an entertainment network, but I don't understand the hard-on lefties seem to have with Fox. It's no worse than a bunch of lefty 'news' outlets (*cough* MSNBC *cough*). It's all drivel for people who don't want actual news and analysis, people that just want confirmation of their current viewpoint.

Lol what do ratings have to do with whether or not they were lying?

Some of you on this forum really need remedial reading comprehension.

Yeah, Fox is worse. It's an outlet for stupid, hateful, intolerant authoritarian sheep who need to be told what to think. They're intentionally stirring the race pot, they're intentionally inciting violence, and they're intentionally lying their asses off. It's hope to absolute scum who could care less about other human beings, because there's nothing they love more than a fucking dollar. And there's scumbag pieces of shit who admire them for it.

THEY GOTS THE RATINGS, LLOL.LOLLOLLOLLOLOLLO!!!! THEY'RE POPALUR!!!!! LOOLLOLLOOL!!!! THEY GOTS TO BE THE BESTESTS!!!!! LOLLOPLLO!!!!! I LOVES MAH MONEY!!!! LLOOLLLOLLOLL!!!!!! I'M ALMOST TO STOOPID TO BREATH!!!!! LOOLLOLLL11!!!111!!!

Fucking brilliant.

One needs someone to blame, otherwise ratings go down. With more emotion, the better.
