oh, i said you must watch it on a regular basis? where did i say that? i just find it odd, if you take such umbrage, that you would ever watch...er, view it. like i told scuds, i don't even know who the woman is that he mentioned. unlike you, i don't watch/view them ever. i just find the whole thing odd.

i hate fox news, so i view them on occasion. why? why waste your time?

Wow. That's a long way to go. Well done.

i could say the same. you sure jumped to conclusions and semantics, when in fact no one suggested you had a channel tuned to them 24-7.

Not really. I was talking about the minutes of coverage Faux News gave to particular stories, especially final combat troop withdrawal, and you decided it was more important to change that topic to exactly how much time and in what manner I viewed Faux.

As I said, long way to go just to reach your end goal

yes, well you certainly got me on the right track by making sure i understood you don't watch fox, you view it. that helped immensely. had you said you viewed it to begin with, no doubt this tangent would never have happened. but since i don't share your superiour intellect, it flew right by me. i'll do better next time.

I expected better from you. After all, you have all your own teeth.

i know...i'm so ashamed. i mean, when she mentioned some stories she'd seen, i automatically assumed that meant she had watched it. but no, she'd only viewed it. i feel so silly. i need to work on my reading comprehension so as not to confuse the two.


edit~well...holy crap. i went back to the beginning of this thread to see where i got derailed, and found this....now maybe i found where i made my mistake, and dared accuse riot of 'watching' fox news. how did i err so badly?!

Yeah, 'Zig, that's exactly what I said. Right.

Yes, it truely must be too hard for you guys to understand: that there is plenty of info about Fox, and the minutes they devote (or not) to particular stories, in the news watchdog orgs (which is what I was talking about when 'Zig decided to introduce "this tangent"); and plenty of short videos of the Faux talking heads all over the political blogs - so no, nobody has to watch Faux News at all to see what they are putting out there - but it's easier for you just to be disingenuous, then insult me. Got it.
