Here's your chance to let the media know where the people stand...

I think the people have already let MSNBC know where we stand, by tuning out Kieth Oberman and his constant anti-Bush rants.

The best result would be if Oberman MSNBC put up a poll AND NOBODY VOTED!

can I yank NBC ?

 

[ToughOmbre]

I'm sure MSNBC, the official Obama campaign headquarters, is rooting for "yes" votes, led by their resident left wing nut job Keith Olbermann.

In a world where most of the American mainstream media slants to the left, the NBC network is off the charts. They are despicable!

It already has for me. The only radio show I used to listen to on NBC {MSNBC} was "Scarbourough Country", but the ratings for the network were so low on Satellite radio that the entire channel was dumped....

Comedy show?

Got to disagree pb. Fox does slant to the right, but at least there is some semblance of balance and fairness as compared to MSNBC.

Example:

O'Reilly will put left wing opposing views on his show all the time and fight it out. When did you ever see Olbermann put an opposing view on his dopey show?

From Wiki.

Under his fictional persona in The Colbert Report, Colbert dropped hints of a potential presidential run throughout 2007, with speculation intensifying following the release of his book, I Am America (And So Can You!), which he claimed was widely rumored to be a sign that he was indeed testing the waters for a future bid for the White House. On October 16, 2007, he announced his candidacy on his show, stating his intention to run both on the Republican and Democratic platforms, but only as a "favorite son" in his native South Carolina. He later abandoned plans to run as a Republican due to the $35,000 fee required to file for the South Carolina primary, however he continued to seek a place on the Democratic ballot and on October 28, 2007, campaigned in the South Carolina state capital of Columbia, where he was presented with the key to the city by Mayor Bob Coble.

On November 1, 2007, the South Carolina Democratic Party executive council voted 13–3 to refuse Colbert's application onto the ballot. "The general sense of the council was that he wasn't a serious candidate and that was why he wasn't selected to be on the ballot," stated John Werner, the party's director. In addition, he was declared "not viable," as he was only running in one state. Several days later he announced that he was dropping out of the race, saying that he did not wish to put the country through an agonizing Supreme Court battle. CNN has reported that Obama supporters pressured the South Carolina Democratic Executive Council to keep Colbert off the ballot. One anonymous member of the council told CNN that former State Superintendent of Education Inez Tenenbaum had placed pressure on them to refuse Colbert's application despite his steady rise in polls.

I just voted to keep it.

I personally do not really care if it is on there or not, I would however like it to stay for historical reasons.

Fox News is truly a great news channel. Look at how it wipes the floor with other news channels.

I'm sorry I don't consider it a reliable news source . To me its kind of like those Hollywood shows that give you all the gossip of Tom Cruise and Angelina Jolies baby except its cleverly disguised as news

What is the difference between Fox and the other US channels? {NBC, CBS etc}

Are you accusing Fox of broadcasting fake news? Is there some example of mis-reporting by Fox?

Tom Angelina? Fox broadcasts news about the wars in Georgia Iraq Afganistan, Hurricane Katrina, politics, the economy, world events, the olympics, the environment etc etc. Hardly the same as Hollywood news.

Wouldn't that be like me watching 30 min of Canadian Air Farce on CBC and then judging the network to be only a comedy channel?

 

[mkloby]

It's a news channel with a conservative leaning - although they do, more often than not, have opposing viewpoints when covering controversial issues.

If you watch the news channels, listen to the anchors and newsmen, you can see the difference in the reporting. A great example is Dan Rather slandering the president with his unbacked allegations several years back, which did ultimately cost him his job.
