Sorry Jungle-Rat. I don't necessarily agree with all you said. Altough I do think O'Reilly has gone over the edge in favor of his own ego and ratings. I still like Sean Hannity. Only thing is, can someone please just wrap Alan Colmes in duct tape for a few days? I can't stand when he pipes up. Yuck. Can we just have the Sean Hannity Show? . _________________ Nomorelies Make a donation HERE |

The only issue I have with fox is one man that used to be named Jerry Rivers, big time ACLU man now known as Geraldo Rivera |

At least Geraldo supports the troops and doesn't slime them like John Kerry did. _________________ Nomorelies Make a donation HERE |

Fox seems to be increasingly ashamed of representing the conservative point of view. I don't see why the conservative POV always has to be "balanced" by some leftie like Colmes. It doesn't bother CNN, CBS, NBC, ABC to be openly leftist. IMHO, trying to appear "fair and balanced" is nothing more than appeasement to the left....to avoid their unjust criticism. Guess what...it's impossible to avoid their criticism...you just have to ignore them.
I'd much rather listen to Michael Savage. He's conservatiuve and not the least bit ashamed of it. Neither am I. _________________ "Medals do not make a man. Morals do."-Don Bendell |

Michael Savage is great. Too bad NBC took him off the air. He was the best talent they ever had. Just a tad to far to the right for those prissy little people. _________________ Nomorelies Make a donation HERE |

Yeah, thank God we can at least listen to Hannity on the radio without that clown Colmbs butting in. When ever that guy buts in, its like hes just using cookie cutter questions to get the answers he wants, never asks any in depth questions. _________________ Dragoro's Realm

I have the same frustration. Just when I start to hammer one, they are gone...poof. I have never seen such efficient troll control.

I can't boycott NBC again until the Olympics are over. 2 weeks every 4 years is all they get of my viewing time. |

Hey atjbear;
I get my news from on line sources and Fox News. My wife is hooked to ABC. When she gets up in the morning I tell her what she's going to see on ABC as the big story or two. Then I tell her "The rest of the story". I just love hearing "you were right" at least once a day.
The truth only hurts those who are afaid of it. _________________ Pete

When the Hannity & Colmes show began, Sean Hannity wasn't big. From what I understand, though, Roger Ailes began the show as a Hannity vehicle. He asked Sean's advice regarding what liberal he would like to work with. It was Hannity who suggested Colmes, as he used to listen to Colmes' radio show. Reportedly, they like each other personally even though they disagree often.
Look, I am a liberal on most social issues, although I take what would be a conservative position on many fiscal/economic issues. That said, I give Hannity credit for getting along with at least one member of the other side. (He admires other liberals.) Given that this country is made up of people with all kinds of points of view, I don't see how it is helpful for the media to balkinize into single minded outlets. That's what is happening with radio these days with WABC in New York all the way to one side and Air America all the way to the other. So one station Bush is the devil, on the other station Kerry is the devil. How does that help us work towards solutions, especially since a large number of people are independents who don't necessarily fall on the right or the left? |

RE: MSNBC, Geraldo, CNN, et al
I watch mostly Fox, because the reporting's solid, and because I like the commentators.
However, I do make a point to force myself to switch over to MSNBC and also CNN ... just to keep tabs on them. If you don't hear what a liberal commentor is saying, then you can't know what the dem talking points are going to be, or what needs to be said to counter those talking points.
Watching a little of CNN and MSNBC keeps me from being "ambushed" by liberal acquaintances of mine.
RE: Geraldo ... before he became a liberal talking head, he did start life as an pretty solid investigative reported. He seems to have tried to go back to his roots, and I'll watch his reporting on Fox. He has an ego the size of Montana, as does O'Reilly, and I bet Geraldo's just happy the 101st didn't shoot him a few years ago! No more maps in the sand for HIM!
The very good thing we have now is Fox, and radio talk shows. Back in the Vietnam years, we had NO dissenting voices from the mainstream media, and no questioning of Walter Chronkite. |

Mike is misstating the facts about what Mr Rood is saying. Mr Rood is talking about Feb 28 when Kerry shot the wounded VC. Mike is tying this to the March 13 Rassman rescue event. Mike stated that the shooting on Feb 28 validated the story by Rassman and Kerry that there was shooting on March 13th. Pure lack of knowledge. Hope everyone emails this mistake to FOX News _________________ The major drawback of hindsite is that while the outcomes of actions considered and taken are readily apparent, the outcomes of actions considered and rejected are never known. |
