He was close: Fox News Employs 1 Conservative, 24 Liberals Frightened Authoritarian Republicans.

Just look at the spending habits of their favorite politicians and their desires for radical change--they certainly aren't conservative.

To be fair, I'm not sure of the people on Fox & Friends have any convictions other than repeating whatever talking points they are handed.

Look, he said he wanted to shoot both Hillary Clinton AND Barack Obama. That's Fair & Balanced.

Fox is agit-prop for the Republican party. It isn't conservative.

vernonFL: Fox is agit-prop for the Republican party. It isn't conservative.

This is the point that should be made. Over and over.
 
2012-05-25 02:20:38 PM
I've heard they're still hiring for the one true scotsman position.
 
2012-05-25 02:31:21 PM
Republicans aren't conservative, so he may be right.
 
2012-05-25 02:31:39 PM
Well that is true. The rest are Neocons, Partisans, and a few racist bigots.
 
2012-05-25 02:33:02 PM
This is what conservatives actually believe
 
2012-05-25 02:33:11 PM
I suppose if we narrowly define conser... no, that still doesn't work. Shut up Ailes, you conservative cock
 
Ehh
2012-05-25 02:36:09 PM
The rest are bloated sociopathic nihilistic toads in a skin suit, like him?
 
2012-05-25 02:37:48 PM
Sounds about right. One true conservative and the rest are fringe partisan hacks.
 
2012-05-25 02:38:07 PM
I think they are just hiding under his jowls.

I really think they need to keep reminding everyone that THIS is what a true conservative is.

Somebody should ask all of the Fox News tools employees why they aren't conservative like that one guy. On camera.

Shep Smith I suppose counts, but when you have a crap ton of Revisionist Radicals and just plain mouth breathing idiots, it's hard to parse the difference...
 
2012-05-25 02:45:14 PM
Maybe this is where the "liberal media" myth came from. They're mostly like the people on Fox (except for Hannity, of course).

I see what he's doing.

Now, the rest of the media are supposed to go, one by one, down the list of all the Fox News hosts individually. The conclusion being that the people that everybody mentions individually are the exception, not the rule.

So now the onus is on the rest of the world to prove that Fox IS a conservative site, which can be explained away by simply saying 'Well, thats just one opinion', rather than on Fox to prove that they're NOT one.

Of course, we are expected to ignore Ailes' hardcore GOP background. Plus the fact that this time last year, Fox employed Santorum, Gingrich, Huckabee, Palin, and a few others who were expected to be contenders in this year's primary derby. And not a single Democratic ex-politician.
 
2012-05-25 02:46:57 PM
at least he is honest about it and he distinguishes between news people and commentators.
 
2012-05-25 02:47:42 PM
No no no you are misunderstanding.

Hannity is conservative COMPARED to his coworkers. He's their leading man, their quarterback of misinformation. The rest of those crazy liberal bastards need his cool, calm leadership to keep them from ruining Fox News, much like how liberals are ruining the nation. Without his helmet haired leadership the whole thing would fall apart and we would all be required to hand in our guns and gay marry a sheep while spitting on the constitution.

/the scary part is, someone believes something very similar out there.
 
2012-05-25 02:47:56 PM
He may have been referring to the fact that he employs nothing but mindless drones that say whatever they are told to say without question. In that sense they aren't really political, just mouth poopers waiting for a command. This certainly is my impression of the folks that love to talk politics in a bar, but their only knowledge of what is going on in the world is restricted to Fox News talking points.
 
2012-05-25 02:48:24 PM
Is this another attempt to try to shift the country further right while saying we are in the center?

I think it is.

tenpoundsofcheese: at least he is honest about it and he distinguishes between news people and commentators.

If only their 'news' people would identify their 'some people say' source as the commentators who were on in the hour before them, all would be forgiven.

Philip Francis Queeg: I really think they need to keep reminding everyone that THIS is what a true conservative is.

He's got a certain look and way about him, doesn't he?

My friend Blair would say he's one of those people who you just need to beat the shiat out of, because you know that they deserve it.
 
2012-05-25 02:51:28 PM
As a conservative, I would agree, but only because the rest are the insane doppelgangers that have taken over the Republican Party.

So Fox is biased. Liberally biased, if you believe this bullshiat.
 
2012-05-25 02:58:56 PM
Farking fascists. Every last one of them.

FOX 'News'....in a pigs eye.
 
2012-05-25 02:59:00 PM
Yeah. And he's the LIBERAL in the group. The rest are too extreme to be Conservative.
 
2012-05-25 02:59:19 PM
Maybe he's referring to their slaves... uh, I mean "interns"?

He's looking through the Overton window in his neighbor's house.
