So it's OK to lie now? Since it's just "opinion" that means lying is OK? Good! I know for a fact that Glen Beck kills puppies, Ann Coulter used to be a man, and Rush Limbaugh travels overseas to have sex with little children. Don't you dare criticize me for saying these things! After all, this board is for opinions!

The problem is only the impulse control is fixed as they mature. If that makes them simply more cunning and effective...

Certainly this looks dishonest, but I do have to say that these things are often the result of laziness or incompetence on the part of a producer. I wish all news organizations were much quicker to address these things head on. Hannity should certainly apologize but, more importantly, explain. There are a few news items in the last few days that separate FOX News ever so slightly from TownHall.com, but the opinion section has continued to be a...

IMO, talk shows should be considered just that. Its the hosts opinion...

It is a scary consideration, no doubt. Rather than just stabilize it allow the economy to work itself out along the lines of the normal boom and bust cycle our leaders have instead continued to artificially stimulate it and amass insane levels of debt and work to saddle us with more entitlement programs passing bills the American people oppose.

http://www.boston.com/news/nation/ar..._to_boost_gop/ -snip- Spurred by conservative talk radio, GOP voters who say they would never back Clinton in a general election are voting for her now for strategic reasons: Some want to prolong her bitter nomination battle with Barack Obama, others believe she would be easier to beat than Obama in the fall, or they simply want to register objections to Obama.

No apologies, I fixed my post and added ... that part was just a little humor, " I thought I was being rational, did I imagine that?" I like to hope that we just see more of this because of the internet, more news sources, and the actual # is not going up substantially lately. I wonder if that is wishful thinking/denial....

Quote: Originally Posted by Groucho Dan Rather unknowingly was duped by a fake letter and reported it and the right demanded his resignation. Fox knowingly falsified the news and there's absolute silence. That pretty much sums up the situation. This is not, of course, the first time the "no spin" network has faked the news.
