This actually happened 3 days ago but our media and Obama remains silent as if it never happened!

Now RealJustme is here singing the praises of Al Jezeera because U.S. media owned by conservative mega corporations won't report the news to us honestly. :lol:

Yeah, it must be Obama telling General Electric an Rupert Murdock what to say. :lol:


These days must be very hard for the likes of this clown these days.

There are 3 basic questions about the outpost in Benghazi:

1 Why wasn't it secured in the first place given the many and various threats there?

2 Why were those defending the outpost allowed to die with no help sent?

3 Why did Obama, Rice, and Hillary lie about a video?

The answer to 3 is that Obama faced a crucial election. He should have lost it based upon his awful performance in his first term. The last thing Obama needed, as he and Biden said "Bin Laden is dead and GM is alive," was evidence in Benghazi that terrorism was not on the run, but America was on the run.

But saying "Faux news" isn't novel, or witty, or accurate.

CNN, MSNBC, USA Today, the NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Baltimore Sun, CBS...these move in lockstep, with loyalty to one ideology.

That isn't healthy for the mainstream media or for America.

Having different sources of news, which are not loyal to one party, is a great thing.

But liberals, who pretend to welcome diversity, are terrified of different ideas.

"But saying "Faux news" isn't novel, or witty, or accurate."-johnforbes

^^^^^It's really difficult to believe there is someone this dense on the board.
johnforbes, no one who uses the term FAUX news is trying to be novel (it's years old and everyone who uses it knows this) nor are they trying to be witty. That you don't understand this is humiliating to you. If you traded away 50 IQ points, your autonomic systems would be forced to shut down.

The part that you're just plain wrong about is the "accurate" part.
Jesus, one of Murdock's papers was sued for lying and not only didn't they deny it, they instead claimed it was their right to lie.
That was their defense and they won.

When a 'news company' comes out and proudly admits it's their right to print falsehoods, I think it's fair to say they are literally a faux news organization. They make it up. What they are selling is not news but propaganda.

But more than this, johnforbes is too dense to understand the real point of this thread which is that FOXnews didn't report on this any sooner than the rest of them, (apparently because they were taking instruction from Obama, according to RealJustme) which makes them exactly the same and makes his comment about having "different sources" completely meaningless.

Wake up and smell the coffee, you clueless bastard.
You're a tool for them now just as you were a tool for them in the 60s.

It isn't really difficult to believe that somebody named "Clownhick" is both clown and hick.

Saying "Faux news" isn't witty, or amusing. It is merely absurd.

Why would it help America to have Fox News be as loyal to one political party as CBS, NBC, CNN, etc are?

It wouldn't.

Real diversity is ideational. It doesn't come from merely having a different skin tone.

What makes clowns such as Clownhick angry?

New ideas. He is shocked by them, and angered by them.

But Clownhick's mighty forebrain, powered by a WAIS score of 52, must cope with it.

Conservatives used to call CNN, Clinton News Network.

I don't give a rats ass what they call it, nor will I waste anymore time or characters............................

Why do they continually toss around insults, start hate threads, etc?

Because they cannot tolerate new ideas.

They are shocked and angered by them.
