Numbers? You want me to go find some Fox news stories where they lied or mislead people with far fetched or false information? You actually need me to do that?


You dont seem to understand statistics or a bell curve

Captcha is kind of unrelated.

Basically what I'm saying is a news network is made up of 1000's of people making stories. The broadcasts have a percent chance for different types of errors to be made at different stages of the content creation that turn it into "fake news".

I'd say MSNBC or CNN is 55% accurate and Fox is 70% accurate as far as actually reporting details. They both obviously spin those facts to their own ends. Which one is more likely to acknowledge that there are multiple stances given a set of data? Which one will never even mention that possibility?

I agree CNN is full of shit, we agree on that. They are the far left mouth piece. I am not sure how often to retract or make corrections, probably not enough.

Meanwhile pretty much every study of verifiable facts being reported shows Fox misreports far more than any other major news organization.

You only say they are "accurate" because you like to ignore facts when they're inconvenient.

But as I like to say, facts don't care about your feelings.

Fox's biggest problem is blending the News with opinion and going very heavy on extreme opinion aka full on conspiracy theory hosts like Glenn Beck was for years and Hannity after taking over and no doubt Tucker down the road if he avoids getting MeToo'd and doesn't find some other source to pay him big bucks so he can bounce

The upskirt conspiracy network beats any other network when it comes to misleading and absolute bullshit smashed up with actual news

Shep Smith doing a good job and Brett and Wallace not being total nutters doesn't balance out piles and piles of absolute dogshit conspiracy and hackery where they very obviously are blurring the lines to feed their 157 year old white right audience that are foaming at the mouth for that sort of garbage

Ok then show them.

You also realize that the left actually fires and censors the right too right?

there's something funny about one of the most misinformed posters in pard defending a republican propaganda network that is the run away winner when it comes to misinforming it's viewers

as an added bonus a fact i've explicitly outlined will also go over his head and the retort will probably consist of references to clinton/democrats missing the point that is made entirely
