fix ratings, on a good
night, are around 3m. there are 325 million of us. ask someone to do the math.
watch carlson. he doesn’t like trumps antics, he thinks the gop is too influenced by lobbyists, thinks they care too
much about businesses and not enough about families.
you’re humiliating yourself.

If you think that since 1 percent of the population watches on a given night means only 1 percent watches the station in total, you are humiliating yourself.

it’s one station with an
obvious right wing bias. compared to stations that have a left wing bias, cnn, msnbc, abc, cbs, nbc, most of the print media, 99% of academia. true or false?

You’re dreaming about market share and the importance of cable news
But just think about the source you depend on
Communications scholars and other social scientists have shown that Fox News lies to its audience so often that a person who watches no TV news at all would know more about factual current events than a regular Fox viewer.

"Communications scholars and other social scientists"--Wow, that's a boatload of leftist biased sources. If those are your sources, it's no wonder you're such a dithering pseudo intellectual.
How many "communications scholars and other social scientists did you find to show that Fox news lies so often? Thousands (are there that many?). . . hundreds . . . tens . . . a handful or so on google? Not that the number matters. I can't conceive of why a communications scholar (whatever that is) would be a better judge of what is a lie than an accountant, or a policeman, or a carpenter, or a priest, or any common sense person who pays attention. Nor do I believe that "communication scholars" and social scientists are unbiased.
And are there other "communications scholars" and other "other social scientists" who disagree with your guys? |
