Peder, you repeatedly mention your disdain for political and religious commentary outside of the Mature Discussion area; however, you are not a member of Mature Discussion. It logically follows that you would prefer not to participate in religious or political discussions, and yet you always go out of your way to find them post in them and then end up in the middle of a ruckus. Do you do this on purpose? Are you incapable of not bypassing a religion or politics thread? Do you need help in protecting you from yourself?
 
I think the key point of the video is right here:

Fox tells us the terrible thing about this Kingdom Foundation is what they fund, that he’s a very bad guy, but they never mentioned this fella’s name, and they never showed this fella’s picture, and they certainly never mentioned that the fella they’re talking about is part owner of their company. Did the gang at Fox and Friends genuinely not know that the head of The Kingdom Foundation’s name, and the fact that he is one of their part owners, or were they purposely covering it up because it didn’t help their fear driven narrative?

Of course, that loses much of its impact without the background information.

Sparky, I hope that you realize that there are answers to the questions you raise that are different from the alternatives you suggest.

I hope you also realize that to answer them would lead to a rather lengthy post from me.

I will say that you are the last person I expected to hear from after your own request that we try to move the discussion alonmg.

So I hope you take no umbrage from the fact that I choose not to answer this particular post of yours, in the interests of moving the discussion along.

Yours truly
Peder

BBC News 24. The BBC has a strict non-partisan obligation, so it can swing neither one way or another politcally, and therefore maintains neutrality. If we want the news, that's the way it should be delivered, and not with some political motive attached highlighting or suppressing pertinent details in order to make things more controversial to a person wanting something to conform to their worldview.

Fox News is not balanced because, aside from leaning to the right (without falling over, amazingly), it has commercial interests. Commercial interests, regardless of which way they swing, will hazard neutrality.

Now, you see, this is your problem. That is blatant and unnecessary sneering. It shows you are uninterested in what other people have to say or what they think. Of course, we all knew this already, because of your track record.

Forget my track record. Are you an American? No. Hence you do NOT vote in this nation. Therefore how worthy is your opinion? Let's be frank. Fox is totally balanced. CNN, MSNBC and other are ALL one sided - enforcing the liberal view...very unbalanced. And forget my track record for it does not apply in this case. Do not use that as an excuse. For I am defending the truth whole heartedly. My past follies do not apply at all in this thread. So let it rest.

As a side point: I love BBC and have total respect for that broadcast. BBC is the finest news affiliate in the world. I am sure that must (should) give equal time to the left and right viewpoints like Fox.

Another side point: I dislike W. Bush for he was a total idiot...a shameful republican. What America needs is another Regan-type president. Then, and only then, will things improve. Thank you.

Stewart we are sharing our view in what should be a civil and respectful debate. I have not, at any point, targeted anyone and I do not expect for others here to target me simple because I own a different point-of-view. We are all adults so we can keep the waters of discussion calm. Let's never allow differences alienate and separate one member from another. I am absultely know that you agree with this point completely Stewart for you are without a shred of a doubt a highly intelligent individual and my respect for you is steadfast/sturdy. This topic is very emotional by nature so we all should expect heated replies. Let's not allow any comment(s) to effect our feelings to the negative. So Steward I need for you to understand what I am saying and not created unneeded agitation. Do you agree Stewart? I sure hope you do sir.
