RE: An Actual Knock at the Door?

Okay, THAT'S funny. FOX has it's own network, and is a major player in the news media. I also defy you to give actual, reasonable proof that they slant their news coverage, any more than anyone else. Yes, they have a conservative editorial slant, just like CNN has a liberal editorial slant, and at least FOX didn't suppress news just to keep in the good graces of an evil dictator.

What the news post was talking about was your average blogger, like you or me (if you have a blog anyways). WorldNetDaily is a conservative news organization, not a blog. They don't count, although it is always possible Google might pick on them next. And ironically enough, Michelle Malkin can't even get on Google News. Go ahead and News Google her- you get hits that mention her, but oddly enough, not her actual blog. Dude. Again, I ask- did you read the news post?

I'll forgive your ignorance here, Starm, because evidently you didn't know that Fox is demonstrably slightly left of center, as demonstrated by Jeffrey Miliyo, an economist and public policy scholar. Meanwhile public TV and radio are actually more conservative. Do we need to go back to Political Compass to shed this baseless and damaging baggage of falsely labeling each other? I also think most people's stated political leanings absolutely hilarious after listening to what they think about issues for a few minutes.

I also thought it was extremely entertaining watching the Slashdot crowd fall over themselves to label those blogs as "hate speach", or that this isn't censorship because it's not a government agency doing it, while those same people have banged on endlessly about government wiretapping or any kind of perceived "censorship" of their pet sites, or wailed and gnashed their teeth about how country fans "censored" the Dixie Chicks. In short, the hypocracy in that forum is staggering, even for Slashdot.
