Seeing as how Fox News is banned in Canada, those who try to get it in thier homes are fined thousands of dollars with possible jail time and all you DO get is the BBC with thier clear liberal agenda. But wait, Shaun and I are the ones with slandered media and don't get all the stories and are "misguided". Forgot.

Oh I also forgot to mention that communist governments are really the only ones that normally put bans on news channels, etc.

Though it often requires duct tape to hold my eyes open, lol. Its obvious that a lot of the European news are anti-bush..but I still pay attention just to see what they are saying.

Though I will agree. The news in America is clearly slandered and smeared all over to reflect the stations own agenda. Its so obvious. I like Sean Hannity......but I don't take everything he says seriously because he's an open conservative with an agenda. I prefer Bill Oreilly.....he keeps his own political stance fairly quiet and will attack ANYONE, left or right. He recently did a column on the American Media and how its getting more and more fucked up and used for personal gain rather then to inform the public.

There's no doubt in my mind the public is being hurt by the media more then its being helped. Something DOES need to be done. I watch Fox because I really believe they're more balanced then anyone else. They have a few liberal hosts, a few conservatives, then nuetrals (Like Brit Hume, etc)
