I don't think many people on this site know what's going on in our government. The people are awakening and realizing the suspicious behavior within our own government. Here is a letter from someone who knows what is going on:





This thread is from someone who is simply concerned for his country. I don't lean towards any political party (I don't even know what their views and beliefs are).

I trust the moderators will keep the political goons away. I believe in our Constitution and our Checks and Balances.

...suspicious behaviour? o_O

It's just a right-winged conservative showing his views and criticizing the actions and decisions from the Government he doesn't agree with o_o

All that letter is really subjective, some people (between them, the current government) think that what they are doing is best for the country and the world. It's just a matter of... which political views you have. I disagree with that guy's opinions, probably because I'm a left-winged guy. But, once again, this is really subjective. I'm sure there are a lot of people who agree with him. But you should definitely not worry about the US collapsing or something.

Oh wow. Glenn Beck, huh? Good luck with that. Most people aren't that far right. You say you don't lean towards any political party, but I would bet you lean towards Libertarian/Republican.

Cleary Fox news is fair and balanced.

I don't see why you should worry about it too much. Glen Beck is infamous for spreading misinformation and deliberate lies, but he is part of fox news of course, so I shouldn't put it past him.

glen beck is not wrong or dose he strech the truth, I hate it when people dont like him only because there dempractic or they dont agree with him , the only thing i would say about him is that he is over dramatic but he has all the right to be dramatic with the sate the country is in right now, pluse why should all new be direct and boring I like someone who makes the new and polotics more fun.
but I am partial bies considering that I am more far right then glen beck :P I am also a republican and agree with what glen beck sais so if I didn't agree with him my opinion on him might have been different.

also if you say fox's news is unfair your just in dinal that there raitings are so high and if you want to see some un fair news chanels look ar msnbc and cbs

cnn is okay

Well aside from the atrocious spelling and grammar, there is more than enough evidence that Fox News (ie News Incorporated) is more conservative. Thus it is one of the reasons why it appeals to conservatives (like yourself). Rupert Murdoch is an interesting person, he understands how to manipulate the general public... and does so, just not a lot of people realize it.

FYI, News Incorporated owns Myspace (among other online websites) and has removed accounts because of certain view points that News Incorporated, doesn't like...

Also, I am surprised that someone as young as 15 would consider them self to be a Republican... Basically labeling them self, disallowing for any uniqueness...

You know, Glen Beck is somebody who's afraid for this country. He even said it:
I love this country... but I fear for it.
Then again, he is, of course, the most reliable name in news, with absolutely NO bias and **** under his sleeve... right?...

Right?...

And he doesn't do crack... right?...

And he doesn't think the people who believe him are idiots... RIGHT?...

Right...

Sorry buddy, but when you have people like Bill O' Reilly, Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Mike Savage, Sarah Palin, and Ann Coulter being famous people in Fox News(although not all of them have their own news network), it is hard to assume that you have a fair news system on your hands. Especially when they are such hard core fans of George Bush and have a vendetta towards Barack Obama. Of course MSNBC has a bias with people like Keith Olbermann(or maybe that is another channel), but it is much closer to fair and balanced than Faux News will ever be. Their ratings are high because the general population of America is the same as them; conservative/republican, Christian, and most likely creationist for the most part. And get this, Glen Beck just so happened to have an episode where god wasn't trusted in America any more, and because of this supposed correlation, America became more violent.

However, with the best kind of news, would be news that does not appear to be partial to one side... It unfortunate that this does really occur however...

I mean what happened to just the 5 W's and How?

The US news has always confused me though... like being concerned with "terrorist fist bumps" or how long someone's term in the army was or why they fired reporters because of a sensitive news topic... etc.

There's no kind of news without bias... but FOX news is possibly the incarnation of it. (MSNBC follows a close second: New headline story! BARACK OBAMA IS JEEZUZZZ)

@ Feign - Honestly, I hate the main news networks of the US, but it seems that it gets higher ratings when they get a psychopath on crack talking about how he's going to remember 9/11 by acknowledging the day after it, and encouraging continental-style tea parties at the nation's capital. You know. Like the 70's movie where the anchor threatens to shoot himself on air in a week, and the ratings go up (I think it was called "Network", but I'm not certain).

LEARN TO TYPE! (Oh darn, I did it again)

Anywho, if I could understand anything from this... It seems you feel that Fox news is not far right because O'Reiley doesn't bash him all the time. Well, if Obama suddenly killed ten thousand Jews, that MSNBC would still be all over him like he's a saint?

Thing is, Fox news is as right winged as they come. Do your research with something else besides the national news networks, because they are as biased as they come.

For example, Socialist Policies.

When someone who watches O'Reiley and Beck often might think, "OMFG THE GOVERNMENT IS OUT TO GET ME AAAAUUUGH AND IF WE HAVE HEALTHCARE NATIONALIZED WE WILL ALL BE OWNED BY THE GOVERNMENT AND WE'LL BE LIKE THE USSR WAS AUGH"

But the school, postal, police systems and fire departments are socialized, and they did not result in a "Soviet States of America". So what happened?

The network is combining its political bias with a simple logical falacy - Slippery Slope, which is similar to the butterfly effect - if something happens, another will happen, and another, and another, which will result in something drastically different. However, this logic is faulty and cannot be used in a good debate. Combining it with their hesitance to change, and they have a very firm opinion.

However, this opinion influences millions of people across the nation. Millions believe that this is the truth, because they'd rather have others think for them instead of using their own minds.

O'Reiley is not a reliable source of information, or Glen Beck, or all of FOX for that matter.

It is possible, just a little too rare unfortunately.

I think that's why I like sticking with my own primary sources...

Afterall, news is merely a secondary source, they do their research etc.

Of course we could all do the same thing, and find out what we want to know, but often times, this can be expensive, and take some time as well...

*terrorist fistbumps Ferryman* All right! :D

Unfortunately (as I have suspected from the beginning), your posts appear to be troll-like...

The bad spelling, saying that O'Reilly is fair...

But as a means to an end I give you this video, in where O'Reilly gets owned by no less than a teen:

Would you like a little bit more cheddar with that, Troll?

*slaps self* Damn, I KNOW I shouldn't feed trolls! But I end up doing it anyhow. ohohohohoho ban me sonova*****

Anywho, all I'm saying is that you shouldn't take it as truth. Do your research before believing what anyone says, not just somebody on FOX, but anyone on the television.
