No, my point was no matter who did the study, Huffington Hoax is

Well, you are free to choose whatever messenger you prefer .....
there's
at least 8 other ones, including Fox News, that reported the results

the same Pew Study.



Yeah, and I am sure they just dismissed Fox the way it was reported
"here"...

Good grief man! *Who* dismissed Fox? Fox?

If think for a moment, the Pew Study actually presents Fox News in a
favorable light .... at least as compared to MSNBC .... in terms of
time spent presenting news versus time spent delivering opinionated
political commentary.

You can't win, Scotty's insane!

A report released Monday by the Pew Research Center on media coverage
over the past 5 years indicates that MSNBC (with the lowest overall
budget) relies 85 percent on "opinions" by their commentators and 15
percent on actual reporting of news events.

According to the study Fox News spends 55 percent of their air time on
commentary opinions and 45 percent on reporting of actual news.

CNN was rated as being the only cable network that spent more time
reporting the news than opinion commentary.

What a surprise.

I guess the difference is that opinion on MSNBC is stated as such,
where on Fox it's unclear if it's opinion or facts. That's why
multiple studies have shown that people who watch Fox regularly are
much less well informed than any other viewing segment, including
comedy shows like Jon Stewart.

Well, it's fine and dandy but the Huffington Hoax is hardly the source I
would go to for objective views about news coverage...

They're mostly an aggregator of news and opinion. What a dip****. You
probably don't know what "aggregator" means. It doesn't have anything
to do with reptiles.

And the "news" FOX reports on is, of course, only the news that helps
their bias.

That's right. One of the problems is that "reporting" itself can be
skewed in favor of certain types of stories. I'm not claiming that
MSNBC doesn't do this, but again many studies have shown that fox
watchers are less well informed.

Are you trying to agitate Harry and like minded fools?

Fortunately, you don't have to be agitated to be a fool.

You were shaken not stirred.

This is an unscientific study but my observations parallel what Pew
says. My TV is on the news all day and CNN seems to be the one that
does more reporting than commenting.


I agree...

Then why did you say that the findings were bull because they were
reported on Huff Post, along with about 200 other places?
