Default Fox - the least trusted name in news

Not only has poor Glenn Beck had the New York City broadcast of his radio show cancelled due to poor ratings effective yesterday, now Fox News has come in last on the "most trusted in news" list.

I have to consider the source on this poll. This is from a democratic pollster isn't it?

The headline should be -

PBS & Fox have higher trust numbers than CBS, NBC, CNN & ABC !!

and GBBob wouldn't that be 2007 ?

"The Wall Street Journal ranked PPP as one of the top swing state pollsters in the country last year. (11-6-08 WSJ)"


And come on - who the hell is watching PBS ?

The CW rules
all the cool kids. you should try it.

they have plenty of conservative commentators and no ads. you get to hear issues discussed calmly from multiple points of view.

stories are done long form so what's presented in a clipped sound bite on a commercial station might be a 7-8 minute feature with multiple reporters on the news hour.

if you like watching 22 minutes of ads during your hour of news keep watching whatever you do now. be careful if you do watch though. once you've tried commercial free, it's really hard to go back.

A campaign has begun to defend a longtime professor and activist from the frequent attacks of Glenn Beck—and the death threats that the attacks have brought with them.

Frances Fox Piven, a 78-year-old professor and political theorist, has been the subject of harsh criticism by Beck for years. Now, the Center for Constitutional Rights has written a letter to Roger Ailes, CEO of Fox News, asking for his "immediate help in stopping false accusations by Glenn Beck that are putting Professor Piven in danger."

CCR asked Ailes to "order Mr. Beck to cease and desist."

In the past few years, though, she has received multiple death threats as a result of Beck's attacks on her, as she told The Progressive magazine: ...
