Dave, the Fox news network is far to the right. It's their stated
agenda.

Hmmm. Is that why their tag line is "fair and balanced?" Is that why Alan
Colms is on with Sean Hannity? Is that why they play as much Kerry campaign
footage as Bush?

Yes, it's called fair and balanced to hoodwink the unthinking or
uninformed. Alan Colms? Have you taken a look at that program? Hannity
has the last word, Colms barly holds his own. Also, look at the two
people. Hannity is a sharp dresser, young, and very articulate. Colms
is a squirrelly looking geekazoid. Also, he's pretty timid and rarely
contradics Hannity.

While I don't mind discussing issues with those who are
moderately on the right or left, it's impossible to have a civilized
conversation with extremists.

Ah, well then you'll want to avoid the NY TIMES, as it's about as extremist
a media outlet as there is in existence.

Well, give us some examples? Have they been that way thoughout their
publishing history or just during the last few years? I suppose you
think the Wash. Post was left-leaning because they broke the Watergate
story?

The NY Times is no far left, as you well
know. Fox, also as you know, is definitely an organ for the right
wing. Their owner is on the radical right, and he frequently
"encourages" like views from the "reporters." Dissenting views are
discouraged to the point of putting their jobs on the line.

LOL. I just love your assessments from the far left, Jon.

Which far left assessment is that? There are plenty of far left
publishing entities. The NY Times isn't one of them.

LOL. You're a right-wing wacko, so I guess you aren't interested in
any kind of intelligent discussion.

If find it interesting that the right-wing wackos are only interested
in the politics of person destruction (a Clinton description), rather
than an objective examination of the issues. It's really easy to bash
Kerry and Bush, but to actually discuss the issues is beyond you.
