Thankfully, Hillary will win comfortably. She could even win Utah and North Carolina tbh.

They must have carried that interview with Martinez that time he guaranteed Everton champions league qualification

.............

Was that the one where he also said Gareth Barry was the best midfielder in England?

The BBC is fantastic. Go to the US and try Fox for the news - then you'll know what bias really is.

Have you seen CNN? Same thing. All news media have their agenda. You can't really single out Fox News despite their Right Wing views.

Fox aren;t really news media per se as they don't (as far as i can recall) have an actual news show that reports the news. Fox are a political and social commentary network.

They do have their own news channel manfrom.

My point is that all the media outlet in the US has their own agenda and that it would be unfair to single one out just because they're right wing on their views. Take what right have to say and what the left have to say and then formulate your own judgement call from there.

Theres the local news affiliates, yes, but the actual channel named Fox News doesn't actually have a news broadcast does it? It's just right wing political and social commentary

They're a news channel with conservative views. I dunno how else to answer that.

Fox has The Walking Dead so they're alright in my book

On a serious note the news channels in the US are nuts IMO. Don't they all have their political affiliations be it Republican or Democrat?

yeah, I totally agree with that.

Just making the point that most other channels will have a program featuring the evening news from around the world whereas Fox News don't.

but the actual channel named Fox News doesn't actually have a news broadcast does it?

Yes. There is a Fox News channel just as there is an NBC one. I guess it will depend on what you have on your TV plan.

Below is the website for the Fox News Channel.

Really, my gripe with Fox News is the extremism and racist tidbits you see from shows like O'Reilly Factor and Lou Hobbs. Megyn Kelly is okay, though she goes overboard sometimes.

CNN on the other hand is trying to make something out of nothing. With people being all SJW-like and sensitive to racial issues, CNN is not helping anyone's cause by "pouring more gasoline into the fire".

No no, I get that.. My point was more that they don;t feature a news bulletin so to speak. Just commentary on issues they want to speak on.

So when i go home this evening, if i want the latest updates on whats Hurricane Matthew, i would tune into pretty much any evening news broadcast, but couldn;t do that on Fox News as they don't actuall feature the news.

anyway.....its all a bit beside the point.

Trump's a bit of a nut and Everton never did get in the CL

MSNBC I suppose is the closest media network to it, thinking about it. Although I'd still argue they have a centrist, neoliberal leaning, if anything.

They used to. I don't watch it anymore. I watch the CNBC News Channel.

Maybe not so much a 'left wing' network to the extent that Fox is right wing, but most of the other networks are seen to be more liberal.

of course, being more liberal that Fox who are staunch conservatives and feature heavily conservative leaning commentary 24hrs a day, doesn't necessarily mean that they are 'left wing'.

I would say, that when watching, for example, CNN's analysis of these recent debates, their panel is very anti trump.

Generally speaking, sane people are anti-Trump, including a huge proportion of conservative commentators. That has not so much to do with traditional political opinion, and more to do with common sense and decency.

CNN, NBC, ABC, and CBS are all left leaning television network in the US.

CNN is probably the most left leaning and because a lot of the news outlet are left leaning, people don't really see the difference. This creates a herd mentality against what Fox says because Fox is the only media outlet on cable network that is right leaning thus sometimes creating a false perception.

Facebook is left leaning, and there has been allegations against them a few months back for promoting too much left wing agenda. Think they owned up to that and it's balanced out a little bit.

NBC for my evening news, both local and national. They just straight up provide the stories of the day

.................

Indeed. Morning Joe on MSNBC is probably the most balanced views you will get because they pick their guests and reviewers from both sides of the table and the neutral.

Most are left leaning in terms of democrat rather than republican. It depends how far to the left you're thinking though.

After the last debate I watched a bit of Megan Kelly on Fox. It was clear that Fox have given up on him, much like his party has.

The left wing media "elite" have created an environment where they think they can set the agenda ,rig the opinion polls ,and conduct the election
They are, of course,not "elite" in any way,and the more they try to manipulate opinion the worse its going to pan out for them
Trump at 5-1 is ridiculously good value

jedward

Who is this elite left wing that you are on about?
