It’s not just that Fox News has a point of view. Many publications and shows have a certain perspective as well, whether it’s conservative or liberal. It’s that Fox News does propaganda. What’s the difference?
They don’t just have a perspective, they have an agenda. And they drive that agenda until their political goals are met. So, they don’t just do the so-called Ground Zero Mosque story on one or two shows randomly depending on the host’s interests. They all do it. Their talk show hosts do the story. Their so-called news anchors do the story. They do it 24-7 until it spreads to the other cable news stations, and then thereby spreads into the whole media.
That’s not a coincidence, that’s a well thought out strategy. And it works like a charm. So, for example, people are confused as to why the Democrats always seem to get slammed in the summers. That’s because Congress is in recess, there is a news void and Fox fills that void with whatever propaganda they have decided will incite fear and loathing at that time. So, last summer it was death panels and Tea Parties. This summer it’s the “Ground Zero Mosque.”

And now comes “steve” demonstrating the amazing depths of willful obtuseness for which libs are noted.
BTW, the phrase “Ground Zero Mosque” did not originate with FoxNews, it was what Imam Rauf and his followers were originally calling the project. Only after the political pushback did they change the name to Park51. And it’s telling that they insist that no other location in a city with hundreds of vacant buildings is appropriate for their purposes.
And yet, “steve” believes himself to be smarter and more sophisticated than any of us.

As a patriotic, red blooded (straight) American male. I feel it is my civic duty to follow in San Fran Nan’s footsteps.
I would like to offer my services for a detailed hands on examination of Miss USA.

All the media EXCEPT independent Fox News support Obama and his socialist agenda. Thank God there is an outlet not in the pocket of the powerful socialists. Obamas polling is about to drop into the 30’s I’m surprised another conservative doesn’t start up another fair and balanced network to satisfy the nations desire for more options. Even some of Foxs hosts are annoying but you’ve got no choice if you want real information to watch their shows. CNN and MSNBC still keep trying to tell us how things are getting better and WOW it’s just the people are sooo stupid that we don’t get it.
I love Nancy Pelosi!

Of course, steve would not characterize the JornoList-coordinated attacks against Sarah Palin as being any sort of agenda; it’s just journalism.

Ah yes…..”steve.”
I thought I smelled gin and regret….
Let’s see steve didn’t respond to the point of the post and offers a diatribe against Fox without any evidence. Hmmm. . . .
