[Locked] news from the daily show?

Something wrong with me being well informed on something outside my country? (we do get your television channels up here and I do posses something called the internets)

Fox news is a joke and to consider them a credible source is laughable. It's good that you get your news from other sources as well so you can sift through the bullshit fox likes to feed Americans.

That "bullshit" as you call it is the most popular news channel in America. Not to mention the channel is broadcast internationally in:

Canada
Brazil
Australia
Italy
New Zealand
Scandinavia
United Kingdom

Location of all Fox news broadcasts are on this map.


If it's popular they must be doing something right. Which goes to show that people dislike channels like MSNBC whose ratings have been dropping for some time now.

Also, please provide an example of how the channel is laughable. A piece of advice, don't use the opinion guys as your example.

Christianity is all over the fucking place. If it's so popular they must be doing something right. It's not like what they believe or what their source tells them is bullshit or anything like that, how the fuck could that be. Because when many people believe in it, that makes it sooooo fucking credible. There's no way that billions of people could just be stupid.

I herd racism was once popular

EDIT-Bill O Reily being ridiculous

Christianity was spread at the point of a sword and later a gun. Then deeply rooted into society and taught everyday as truth everyday for the last 2,000 years. This verses a t.v channel that you have to want to watch. Not much of a comparison there.

With MSNBC being as biased as it is and the station losing ratings like a burning plane loses altitude then maybe Fox News isn't as bad as people claim it to be.

Plus, I feel like I'm the only person who actually watches Fox News and criticizes it for the actual flaws instead of hoping on the "Fox news sux" bandwagon.

Edit: As for O'reilly I take his show with a grain of salt. He has his flaws but, his heart is in the right place. He was instrumental in helping "Jessica's law" get passed and he consistently demands that public figures be held accountable. Especially those who are judges when O'reilly demanded a judge be held responsible for giving a sentence of 90 days in jail to a man who sexually abused his daughter from the age of 4 to 8 9don't quote me on the age but, it was for a prolonged period of time). Another example is when he criticized Al Sharpton for his statements about Micheal Jackson like he was a Civil Rights activist like Dr. King.

All of these reports of who has the highest viewers on cable television are done by third parties. No official results exist, so as a result there are multiple sources of these supposed surveys. Other show the MSNBC is still the highest. Third parties can easily be swayed by the political affiliations of the news channels or simply by being paid under the table. That's why so many stations and networks say "Number 1 blah, blah, blah" because they have their own third party results which shows they are the best, while another network has one stating to the contrary.

I get ALL my news from The Daily Show and The Steven Colbert Report.

Why the hell not. I'll feed the troll some more. It's fun watching you beg for scraps and attention.

If you have a point it would be nice if you actually made one instead of a game of mimic.

You bet.

fpod, what tms is saying is that just because something is popular doesn't mean its right

Be careful bro, 'popular' has more than 2 syllables, he might not be able follow what you said.

Now you're just trolling. -_-

I was putting his reading skills on the same level as his ability to infer meaning from satire, sorry.

The problem with this post is that you have yet to make any intelligent rebuttal to my argument. Trying to cover up your insults under the thin excuse of "satire" when really we know you were just being a typical troll.

Come back when you graduate high school.

/topic, back to the Colbert Report/Daily Show discussion.

Fun video now:

Just so you know you haven't responded to the "just because something is popular doesn't mean its right" point, which was brought up by Me and Rbz in addition to tms

I've made several points that you haven't touched; an entire post that you ignored. And because my OPINION was not in line with your OPINION, you seem to have gotten very protective of your OPINION. Why don't you go back to SD where most people don't have to read your terrible, libertarian propaganda.

And it seems you're the one being a troll by attacking people with personal insults such as Ramsus, and I. Point in case: "Come back when you graduate high school.". How's that for evidence in favour of my opinion?

What argument was that again? Sorry, I just skipped passed all your posts because of the whole, "My opinion is the only opinion" attitude you've taken.
