Eh hem. The fact of the matter is that the Young Turks are horrendously bogus. I do not think Fox News is conservative media either; it allows most anyone in there to share their opinion. They have panel discussions.

Meanwhile in MSNBC (Panel Discussion)
"I support gay marriage!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"

And they only hire Joe Scarborough to provide the illusion of not being a hivemind.

I'm not going to say MSNBC is unbiased they definetly are but so is Fox News.

Do you think Obama is a Muslim?
-yep
-yep

Obviously an exaggeration but still. They have non-conservatives but if you listen to the Rhetoric of its host and many of its guess they do have a conservative lean not to mention the amount of republican adds they play on their channel (I think today I saw 20 GOP campaign commercial to like 3 for the Dems.) and so forth and so on.

I tend to watch Fox a lot simply because I know I have a liberal bias and to actively Challenge myself to understand why I believe the way I do I watch news that I know is obviously bias in a conservative sense Fox being the biggest of those news sources.

Just found this hilarious tidbit.

Saw it on the "The Young Turks" yet forgot about it till now.


Oh, you watch the Young Turks? That's certainly a reliable media outlet.


It's biased, but I do believe that TYT is fairly reliable. They talk about facts, and provide progressive commentary.

How exactly is he not fully wrong?

I mean yeah he has some moments of reality (such as his comments on Ken Ham), but the majority of the time they really aren't based on a plausible reality.

Maybe Pat Robertson had some legitimate business dealings with Charles Taylor? It doesn't make him personally responsible for what his regime did.

Really makes me lose faith in humanity that people can be as gullible as to give him 10% of their money, especially with how prevalent poverty is.
In fact I remember a video where someone called in about how he thinks cremation is super immoral talking about how they don't have any enough money for a burial, and he said "Just save some money, if you can't scrape up a couple thousand dollars something's wrong with you, sell some stuff on ebay".
Really only goes to show how much of a sociopath he is, no empathy for people in poverty.

Fred Phelps on the other hand, was an excellent lawyer for black civil rights in southern america.
He stopped that whole thing when he had a courtcase and then he went on and on with baseless accusations about some persons sexual activities and got disbarred.
Family members who left the WBC describe him as being mad and the WBC being his way of expressing that.
I suspect that Fred Phelps is actually a good person at heart and was just affected by mental illness.
There have been cases before where people have had dormant mental illnesses and then later on in life they actively affect the mentally ill person.

It's pseudoscientific, pro homeopathy, anti GMO, pro conspiracy theory "news." Simply put, it's less reliable than the Daily Heil Fail Mail.

Oh don't get me wrong I watch CNN, MSNBC, Al-Jazzera Enlish, and BBC. I tend to normally watch Sheperd Snith and Bill O,Riley when in watching Fox because to me they are best commentators they have. And if Katie Pavlich is on I'll watch Outnumbered just for the immoral thought :p

Curious which dictators?

Please do not say Mugabe or Amin, because thats disturbing.

Charles Taylor is not that bad, at least, it wasn't Mugabe, which many Jesuits in Rome and Zionists in Israel have supported.

And Mugabe is a hero to people like Michael Moore.
