I don't make many posts. However when something comes up that summarizes something I have been seeing but haven't been able to put into words I feel a need to express myself. It's a shame that the visitors to this site already know that Fox News is not a fact news station because this is something others need to be made aware of. Even if they would do their best not to understand (It takes a lot of effort to avoid facts). Take note I avoided using the word truth because the fact is people create their own truths. It's easier to validate any point by calling it true. People think it gives the point some sort of significance when it it really doesn't.
I have been fascinated by the recent comments on Fox news. This has led to a push back from left leaning commentators like Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow. Even though these media battles are to be expected. They cause some issues in right leaning ideology to come to light.
Well he we have it folks. O'Reilly revealed his opinions on what news and journalism means to him. As he spoke to Lu Dobbs he seemed very proud of the fact that Fox news rates highly because of their Opinion Programming. He also referred to anchors as simply talent and thinks other new channels are foolish for being interested in factual news as opposed to the opinions of news actors.
This is how simple minded Fox news is:
I have been watching the developments of the Health Care Reform debate as they have unfolded. It has been interesting to see how there can be so much determination to allow people to profit from the misfortunes of others. It reminded me of the movie "Gangs of New York".
Daily Kos has been an inspiration to me. I come from a country where a nationalist government will manipulate and oppress the people in order to stay in power. The manipulation is through misinforming the people and controlling the media and the oppression begins at birth for most citizens. There is clearly a strategy in place where by most individuals are not given an opportunity in education. School curricular is designed to manipulate world views and sculpt what should be held most valuable. It is unfortunate that I can find similarities between a dictatorship and a western political party. It only gets worse when one looks at the tools that are used in times of desperation, in this case Sarah Palin.
