Does this forum tolerate racism?

So you’d agree that Fox News has absolute zero reliability then?
Not zero but be careful what you believe, the trends tend to favour truth to a point..... also it must be kept in mind that it's a channel of mostly commentary theatre.... some commentators are professional fools and others arnt that bad.

CNN on the other hand completely went over the far side.

The funny thing most people don't realize..... FN is not actually conservative.... it just pretends to be for ratings. It's a solidly neocon network.

I love how you changed tact so quick, @Dave only mentioned Fox as an example then you quickly pivoted to CNN and how Fox is not conservative.

Always trying to change words and who is not X to suite your needs its quite funny really.

Then you will be like they cant box me in becasue in your own mind you shift things to suite your thought pattern.

It was logically required to compare FN to CNN..... and no definitions were changed.

I don't even think CNN is necessarily actually socialist either..... though they do tend to hire a lot of evangelists and it becomes creepy. They obviously went Trump nuts for ratings.

There very much IS a FN and CNN dichotomy..... you cannot discuss the one without discussing the other. Neither of them can function without the other.

It was a simple question about Fox news yet like this follow up you are offering up talking points about something that was not asked for, yes you think its a logical to compare Fox and CNN because you do not want to make a comparison its a scenario were the shift focuses to something else to show they are bad so we do not need to talk about Fox any more, its a simple play.

kak storie, it was a complex question pretending to be a simple one. You really think I am stupid enough to not be able to predict everything that will follow any answer I give to that kind of obviously baiting question? It's hardly a difficult prediction by now.

Of course I followed up a complex question with a complex answer.... I even summarized and dumbed it down.

You made a statement.
I have a simple rule of thumb: the more lies a source tells the less reliable it is

Here is the question not from dave who you think had some kind of gottcha.

Do you agree Fox news has zero credibility?

Simple question focus on the question not what you think the question is.

Why exactly are you complaining that I not only answered the question but also provided an explanation for the answer that fits the rule of thumb perfectly?

Do you have a 5 second memory?

Nope you didn't but like I said in your head you think you did but you didn't, you kinda said something then changed it to something that was not the topic at hand to shift focus.

How do you come to that strange conclusion? It was a simple question asking your opinion on Fox.
I have been on this roundabout too many times to believe that.

EDIT: no one asks that kind of question about a source like FN to not have extra intentions with the question.

From where to where exactly do you think I shifted focus?

How do you know no one would ask a simple question if you don’t allow for it to be simple when you answered?

Decades of forum experience...... and the way you framed the question indicating mostly likely why you asked it.

If it really was a simple question you would have picked a more neutral target.

A more neutral target?

You’d just been discussing Fox News in a different post, so after you discuss Fox I should have asked you about RT?

Ok……..…

None of that logically follows anything
