For the people that think Fox News lies/hate Fox?

Question

Why do you think they lie? I actually like Fox, but I am a very open-minded person who wants to explore all sides of the issue. So don't consider me a conservative. Anyway, why do you say they lie? Do you actually have evidence of such lies? I would honestly like to see them. If you don't have evidence, why do you say it? Why do people hate Fox? Would anyone care to share their thinking about why they hate Fox so much? I'm trying to understand, not smear. There was a protest in Denver Sunday that was against the war supposedly. Fox tried to get a coherent message out of the group, which is often hard with protesters, but ended up getting assaulted and injured. They started shouting expletives involving Fox and the whole crowd seemed like it had such a hatred among them. I know this is a mob mentality, but there is underlying hatred in each one of these people's souls against Fox. Why? No one is supposed to get physically injured in politics. All it is is a system of beliefs people hold. Would you persecute Jews for being Jews? Why persecute people for being liberal or conservative? Anyway, just trying to understand and I totally support people sharing their opinion in a calm, non-insulting manner. So if you're a Fox hater, I don't hate you, I just want to understand why you hate it. Maybe I missed something about Fox and I need to be informed. That's why I'm asking

Answer 1

It isn't so much the lying as it is the bias.  John Edwards is a hypocrite for cheating on his wife, but it's ok for McCain because he was a veteran.  They say that Obama was once a Muslim, despite no evidence supporting that statement and much evidence to the contrary.  They say that Michelle referred to whiteys at a speech earlier this spring.  A speech she couldn't have given because she did not attend the forum.  They invite authors on to say Obama was born overseas.  There is not only a birth certificate available from several sources proving he was not, but the Hawaiian newspaper from 1961 shows the birth announcement.  They even try to tie Obama to African dictators he has never met.  If you are truly interested in why I dislike Fox News check out www.newshounds.us  They post about a half dozen examples of the most egregious bias daily and at least one bald faced lie per week.

Answer 2

It's not a democrate vs republican thing.

They lie on various news reports. I think they even admitted to it at one point.  

Answer 3

Beacuse, Bush's cousin ownes the Fox company and their the Bushes are just full of **** and lies!!!!

Answer 4

I hate it because all of the power that it represents ultimate resides under the command of only one man, who has his hands in pretty much every country in the world.

Remember the James Bond film "Tomorrow never dies" (or w/e it was called)?

Supposedly, the bad guy in that is actually based off Rupert Murdoch, and is supposedly a semi-satire of the kind of power that man has at his disposal.

Although, i suppose, in the film the bad guy wanted to cause thermo-nuclear war, i don't think ol' Roo has it in for humanity in quite that way.
