Distinction Without a Difference: FOX News Pushes the Same Anti-Gun Agitprop as CNN and MSNBC - The Truth About Guns

By Lee Williams It’s becoming increasingly difficult to tell the difference between FOX News and CNN or MSNBC. Especially when the topic is guns. And especially after a mass shooting. For at least seven years, FOX News has been citing fake mass-shooting data from the Gun Violence Archive – an...

Bad news creates more viewers than good news.............unfortunately it's true................it's not 1 of those "hurry turn it/turn it up as to hear good news" as opposed to "turn it/turn it up , what happened"

Faux news doesn’t care about facts; never has.

It just says things that will either 1)outrage its viewers or 2)make its viewers think they’re right (or both).

News it ain’t.

i generally watch the early morning local news, between 4:30 AM till about 6AM.

of the 2 local tv stations, they both have HOT traffic female reporters, and 1 has a HOT female Meteorologist.

after i get to see both channels, by way of the "previous channel" button, i can go about my day

i cannot say when was the last time i watched ANY national news network

so in effect, like several of my doctors i see, and have lab work done..and i await the test results....??

like the old saying, "no news is good news".

It's a bit disappointing to see Fox do this instead of being a leader of truth in this area.

Why? Why is it surprising let alone disappointing?!? it is still in networking they still make money off of sensationalism. All news is grimy like that. The best way to find out what the news is in your country is to listen to another country‘s news about your country. Then you blend about three or four of those countries together and whatever they say in common is probably closer to the truth.

The news biz has nothing to do with facts and information. Depending upon the outlet it is more concerned with agenda advancement, sensationalism for “clicks” and profit, or a combination if the two. Regardless of who it is, I don’t trust any of them for truth.

At least when you go to a movie you already know what you're getting (drama, comedy, scifi, etc). Maybe the news should be listed like that. Don't forget what it's rated..... S for stupid, J for jachkasses, P for pretend or OIR only if real.

Hi,

Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it ain't news.

Still, the self-proclaimed "fair and balanced" FOX should, at least, quote FBI stats along with their biased source.


Thank you for your indulgence,

The news we get is based on someone else's agenda. Doesn't matter if it's local or national.

This differs from CNN how?

 

[HansGruber]

This differs from CNN how?

So you’re saying Fox is no different than CNN?

We agree.

Beyond that, whataboutism is a pretty sad excuse for an argument.

I'm not sure how you define whataboutism. I'm not arguing in favor of Fox. I don't watch CNN or Fox.

I watch my local news mostly for the weather. There's not a news agency out there that I trust period.

I kinda gave up cable news shows, started reading the Washington Examiner, so far, hasn’t disappointed me, not biased like other news magazines.

It's all propaganda now. It all changed in 1987 with the repeal of the fairness doctrine.

 

[Recusant]

like the old saying, "no news is good news".

Old-Me, that saying is true, except if you're waiting to hear from the governor!

Having dealt with the media directly for years in my career, I trust the media as far as I can throw their satellite trucks. I was at enough scenes to see what happened in person, then watch reporting the next day that didn't resemble what I saw. Sometimes due to incompetent reporting, sometimes due to agenda driven editors. They all have an agenda in one way or another. Some of the most dishonest people I ever met were editors. I watch the news to hear from the horse's mouth, not for the anchor to tell me what the horse said. If you want an example of what I am saying, watch an incumbent or candidate speech from start to finish, then listen to what the reporters tell you afterward what was said. It is shocking for most folks to see the twist and spin. You have to sort through the BS for the nuggets of truth to stay informed.

 

[Keystone19250]

FOX News knowing the truth and reporting lies anyway just cost them 787+ million dollars in a settlement from a law suit, will that change anything? Only time will tell.
As far as other news sources? A whole nother story.

 

[ex13F]

I quit watching Fox when they hired Donna Brazile and had kicked O'Reilly out the door.

 

[Recusant]

I just want a news service that tells the truth:
