On the other hand then... are CNN & MSNBC more fair & balanced?
CNN hardly is... but Ted Turner wouldn't want his news network to be impartial.
No major news network is fair and balanced. I think CNN is just as biased the other way as Fox is, but they're tag line isn't "fair and balanced."

Against who, the liberal left media of NBC CBS CNN TBS ABC???? Fox is far more "fair and balanced" than any of the sources I just listed.
Good God get a life. Our overwhelmingly liberal media is the root of everything that is wrong with our country.
Real mature, asshat. Call me when you grow up.

Why do you have to ruin a good point with an insult? Can't you ever conduct a civil argument without ridicule?
He could actually have a good point to make in this discussion if he could stop and think for a second. I don't even know who the hell he is, but apparently, he knows me well enought to tell me that I need a life.

Not telling people "Merry Christmas" or being able to call Christmas Christmas? Sheesh!!!
As for reporting, none of them are telling or allowed to tell us thy truth.The news is marketed, targeted,commercialized,packaged and deliver/served up to us.
One may well slam Fox if one so chooses, but generally the same people that do, fail to slam ABC,CBS,CNN,CBS,NBC,MSNBC, etc.
Fox may not be as fair and balllanced as they would like people to believe, HOWEVER, generally they are more fair and balanced, than the rest of the MSM.
Excellent case in point 3 different reporters,one from Fox, one from Newsweek, and I forget where the third was from) and a vice president from ABC news came forward and told us they were not teling us the truth about the war in Iraq and were not showing us any of the positive things that had happened and taken place. This was a couple of years ago or so. The mainstream media (MSM for short) clearly can alter the public's perception.
Even Walter Cronkite came forward and admitted that there was liberal bias in the news and that the vast majority of the reporters today were liberal. He said most of the professors teaching them were liberal had something to do with it as well. ( if you disagree with it, take that up with Walter)
Sam, if you want to start a thread about bias in the media, go right on and do it. But this thread is about sexual harassment. Please try to keep up.
Thank you!
I think you just got hijacked, bud.

And the Horse he rode in on after if he wants to take one of my threads and talk about P-E-A-S and find it perfectly acceptable I see no reason to take anything he has to say to be of any use or interests or of substance.
He wants to prove he is p-e-a brain is his business.
PS: Someone PM me, and let me know when he gets an original thought and idea and response, raqther than parroting my posts, perhaps, and JUST PERHAPS, THEN I might consider reading it.
Until then I think I will go watch algae growing on sloth racing. Definitely more entertaining and enlightening.

Once again Sam, if you weren't so hypersensitive and defensive in your reactions, you would be much more effective in making an impression.
The effort you take to type in your lengthy arguments and explanations is wasted when you get so bitter and salty at peoples responses...

Will someone PM me when Sam learns how to spell correctly. I won't hold my breath, but if you could let me know, I would appreciate it.
Also, please pick up a book that will instruct you on how to write a paragraph that makes sense.

One thing for certain...Nothing can be said about your originality, since it is apparently nonexistant.
A lot can be said about your imitations, and I thank you, after all they say, imitation is the highest/sincerest form of flattery! (If you are not careful RIAA and MPAA might just be all over you. I am sure I have copyrights on them somewhere. )
If you can't figure it out then please don't read it, or bother commenting on it, since all you is repeat what I said. If I wanted or needed a yes man or a parrot, I would hire or buy one.
Try doing something constructive with your time and be creative for a change.

It was my thread to begin with. I thought it was an interesting article, so I posted it. I am sorry for going off topic. I am also sorry for letting Sam get me so damn mad. For the life of me, I don't understand how it got off topic. This should be a topic that - everyone that has a job - should be concerned about.
From now on, I will try my best to ignore Sam, so I won't stoop to his level.
Hey Wino,
Where have you been, I haven't seen you in awhile?

Agreed!
We can still have our own opinions, but we should show a little more class in how we represent them.
