We need Fox News to show us how not to act, nada. If everyone in

America acted like those idiots like Sean Hannity, you would never have been allowed into the United States.  Fox is nothing more than a "non-alligned" fear-mongering tool of the GOP.  Better you fear it than understand it.  Wouldn't want you to get too educated. 

But we do need Fox News.  They're there to let us know exactly how polarized we should be -- and what side we should be on.  How's that for fair and balanced?  I love Fox News.  I can sit and watch it all day and marvel at the fact that Tucker Carlson doesn't work there. How can that be? 

No, nada, Fox News can never simply report the news, they have to slant it so far to the right that you barely get the story from the politics.  How's that for allowing you to form your own opinion?  And have you ever noticed that the only people that defend Fox News are right wing conservatives?  That's because they're the only ones who are always "right" about everything; a differing opinion means adversary; where nationalism and religion meet to form the sacrosanct and one true way for the American people.  Wrap a flag around it and pledge allegiance to jingoism.  Faux News, where the only thing fair and balanced about it (besides Alan Colmes and Mort Kondracke) is the use of those two words as a motto.

Re: Nada70
I get it now after reading your 'about me' page. You came here from Yugoslavia, only to land in Washington state, got brainwashed by all of the liberals in that state and now you hate Fox News. Oh, I've got it now! My dear, the northwest has been a mecca for liberalism for a long long time. We have Fox News (fair and balanced) and then we have other channels like CNN (liberal and worthless) understand? In this nation we have freedom to choose which party we want to support.

I remember for years, some 40 or so I and others like me, the former free Americans, felt so sorry that we could not free you from the oppression of Communism so you could come here and see what freedom was all about. The horror of it all is you have not understood what our country is all about. Instead so many of you have recreated a new form of communism. You are welcome here, but you would do well to understand some of what you see as false is not false at all. We have had freedom for 200 years and you have had it 13 years and you judge those who are telling the real truth. I am sorry still that you do not know the truth, nor how to discern it.
