The Right-wing media...

[polysciguy420]

makes me throw up in my mouth. Has anybody ever noticed that the right wing media only focuses on races in which the Democrat stands a good chance to lose? Furthermore, instead of focusing on the personal inemptness of the democratic candidate who lost the race, they proceed to interpret the results as a referendum on Obama. Not that this type of thing is O.K. by any strectch of the imganiation, but it would at least be conceviable if they did not attempt to blast the dems for this very same type of behavior during the Bush years, who btw enjoyed far less national support than Obama has now. In such an enviroment, IMO at least it would be much more approriate to interpret the results of a local election as a referendum on the ruling parties national leader. As oppossed to the political enviroment we have now, in which a majority of people approve of our country's national leadership.With this being the case, when votors go to vote in local elections, at least in this current political climate the closest thing to their minds are localized issues, NOT WHAT THE HELL OBAMA IS DOING IN WASHINGTON! We have seperate elections for that in this country. If only the right-wingers could get this into their elephant brains...

1. Don't expect any rationality from them

Remember, Faux will put a D after a Republican's name if the R has just been discovered doing something horrid. They're not news. They're propaganda.

What's infuriating is when the bigger outlets (corporate media) pick up on what the wingnuts are saying as if it's anything other than idiocy.

3. Drink your own Kool-Aid if you don't like the flavor they are serving.

I'm not sure why just the “conservative news” makes you want to throw up in your mouth. In my opinion all news makes me ill.

I’ll explain;

You are upset that the “conservative” news only reports on what conservatives want to see. You don't think the same thing goes for the liberal media. What makes you sick about the conservative news is what makes conservatives sick about liberal news channels. There is not one news channel in existence that I can find that is honestly “fair and balanced” news. Now I know that Fox news does claim to be fair and balanced, however I see them more as a counter balance to the liberal media. In fact Fox is more on the line of bat-shit crazy Libertarian in my opinion.

I personally make it a point to watch different news channels throughout the day. This way I get my news from differing angles, then take all of it with a grain of salt and conclude myself what the true story is. Personally I think that this is a bunch of bullshit that I would actually have to assume that news outlets are misleading me. However it is quite the truth. These news agencies are out for nothing more than ratings. They focus on a group and preach to that group what that group wants to hear.

My advice to you is simply this, if a news channel upsets you and you cannot handle it. Change the channel. We have several channels to choose from that will spin the news in a more liberal fashion that should be to your liking. CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC are all liberal choices for media. If you want to get ill you can watch, Disney, CBS Corp, News Corp, TW or GE as was stated below. They tend to be more capitalistic in their view, so don’t get upset comrade if their views lean in that direction. If you are truly in a masochistic mood, and want to truly see how far the rabbit hole goes, flip on Fox.

My personal recommendation is that you watch a little of each and form your own opinions on what they are trying to feed your. Just keep in mind that it is all garbage, we all have different tastes and some garbage is more palatable to some than it is to others.
