Sun Nov 21, 2004 11:43 pm "At Last" --FOX News and Canada |
|
At last...FOX News, within the next year, will be welcomed into Canada, finally, after being shut out while terrorist-supporter Al Jazeera was allowed in. This was reported on the O'Reilly Factor that it will be welcomed. This is great news, but WHY has it taken this long? Hmm...

Probably because we had bigger issues to deal with than a TV station/show
But yay. Another news station.

Oh, I've been meaning to mention that (I asked my dad). The CRTC, our "Canadian FCC", limits the number of strictly news channels that are allowed in Canada in order to prevent competition with CBC, our socialist-sponsored broadcasting company.
Of course, looking at CBC right now . . . (bringing your reality TV eight years after everyone else did, and then it's about hockey when there's no hockey . . . .) I think a little competition would help shore up its loose attitude.

Dont be looking forward to it Dan, its the worst "news" station youll ever watch. All republican biased lies...It was funny, I watched the OReilly factor report that Fox News was coming to Canada, I was shocked that he actually read comments that were against him, but he did something odd. He basically did what RM does. Completely ignored all negative comments, and said "I agree" with all positive ones. What a little bitch.

I have the right to state my opinion, regardless of who agrees with it. Now stop strolling off topic.

You don't have the right as such if it's making comments that aren't nice about members of the board. There was no need to mention RM in that post yet you did.

Nice would be stating something that everyone can agree with. And thats not going to happen. You cant just magically have everyone love what I say, im bound to piss someone off.
And as for mentioning RM, he mentions me constantly in his arguments, therefore hes fair game. I dont mind, he doesnt either. And if he does, by all means, speak up.

Oh come on!
1. Like they're saying, you DON'T have to attack myself and them like that...and you do NOT have to DRAG ME into it!
2. FOX News is NOT Republican biased. As a matter of fact, in it's quest to seem more fair and balanced to the Libs, they've been becoming MORE LIBERAL.
3. And O'Reilly...he is DEFINITELY not a Republican. He's DEFINITELY an independent, and I've become INCREASINGLY ticked off by him. He's become MORE AND MORE LIBERAL.
4. If ANYONE went off topic, it was you.

Oh and btw, did you watch their election coverage? Of course not.
Which side was it biased to? The left. I hated it. They acted like all heck was loose for Bush...
