He will not listen. Nor can he back up any of his presented "facts". I don't think there's much point in trying to show him reality. He's too personally vested in FOX to admit their slant.

There are many comments I see on Fox that are partisan, sure. But as I said repeatedly, they also have valuable coverage of things like the ACORN scandal that other networks selectively downplay or omit, and also offer plenty of balancing liberal perspective and opinion, such as Juan Williams and the others I listed.


My greatest complaint about Fox is that they have panels where people talk over each other, and there's so much crosstalk that it becomes a waste of time to discern what is being said at times. CNN likewise has this problem. I'd say the best show that has the most controlled and civil equal-time panel discussions is PBS. But as I outlined above, they too have their biases and selective omissions.

Charlie Rose is another program I value for it's in-depth and not overtly partisan spin. After 10 years of watching Charlie Rose, I still cannot discern where on the political spectum Rose's views are. Which speaks well for the facts presented on his show.

Basically, I listen to everyone at various times, and from all sides I can distill the basic facts, and various perspectives of the facts.

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
