yep, the press just isn't what it once was. fox is guilty of extreme bias, and very selective reporting. but i think the others are as well, because someone controls the purse strings. of course, it has been that way for some time. hell, each party 'back in the day' had it's own newspaper (andy jackson tangled with his party paper and the editor). then there was jefferson hiring a guy to write negative stories about alexander hamilton...but i digress.

some fox fans tout them as having so much more viewership. well, yeah. it's a matter of mathematics. the moderate to liberals have a wider selection of channels to choose from. the right-wingers all go to fox, because that's the only game in town for that point of view.

saw my parents at thanksgiving. my dad mentioned something he heard on rush. ugh. i don't know how anyone can listen to him.
