    My fuck.


    I'm watching CNN, and theres an interesting story about civilian life in Iraq, and the traumatic effects on people from being exposed to violence everyday, all day..

    and then the transition goes "now there isnt anything funny about that last story, but what about political cartoons??"

    I honestly believe this is the worst transition between storiesive ever heard...

    So i change the channel to CNN headline news.. and its some fucking lame ass story.. and the transition to commercial on that one, he says a buunch of golf puns, i didnt hear them al but then he goes "i know if i say one more golf pun youll club me to death"

    So i thought, you fucking piece of shit... thats exactly what i was thinking..

    Lmao

    News is better from independent sources leaning from uber-liberal to uber-conservate, to libertarian, and so on. Then get the balanced picture.

    Bullshit news are better from Fox, because it's the funniest channel on tv. I swear, I love Fox news. It makes me laugh so much... I love how they make a point out of being extra patriotic and always have somehow insecurely claim that it's the liberal media that's biased, and while they are "Fair and Balanced".

    That's one of the best statements in the world, "Fair and Balanced".

    I think Bill O'Reilly's interview skills show how "fair and balanced" the show is. (Bill is probably the best modern day entertainer though).

    Bill: "A you a patriotic American?"
    Some Democrat: "Well Bill, the issue here is foreign policy in Tanzania, our subject of discussion."
    Bill: "So you are not a patriotic American?"
    Some Democrat: "Well... I woul...."
    Bill: "Answer the question! Are you a patriotic American?"
    Some Democrat: "Well, yes, of..."
    Bill: "Then why do you care more about Tanzania's security than ours? Huh, wanna tell me that?"

    Uhhum.

    AHAH.. I understand where you're going at with Fox.

    For some reason, I think it would take someone with a bullet in their head to realize that the channel is not trying to target senile people over sixty who make <300k a year.

    Ironically, I think Bush's cousin or whateverthehell is still working for them.

    And, you cannot deny that they were the first to announce a Bush victory.

    Though, I'm sure you know they were conservative-leaning when they were first founded, but do they actually have to lie and say it's unbiased news?

    CNN generally just tries to flow with the majority.

    But I believe that's moreso the key, as opposed to saying "unbiased news"...

    That just doesn't work, in my mind. It's undoubtedly just a shitty marketing ploy.
