Robbie, come on don't be a sore loser. Let's recap, ok?

I shared numbers & stats here, and included the sources. We could have debated the value of the stats or its potential future trends if you wanted to.

But instead you mistakenly called them all false here but then added a link to the "correct" stats, which were actually the same stats I showed. Embarrassing mistake sure, but we all do that sometimes.

I pointed out your goof in post #11, but in your post #12 you doubled-down on the same mistake calling it a "pack of lies" and saying that "I fell for it". Again, you and I are sighting the same source.

Directfiesta took the time to politely point out your goof too in post #13 and I listed the rest of the sources that you said I did not, with links, in post #19.

In your post#22 you said Fox News never treated Obama badly but this is easily proven to be incorrect as RedFred did here in point 23 and I did here in post 24.


In post 26 you said "everyone KNOWS that Fox News OPINION shows are conservative". Yes they are, but you changed the subject. You first said "Fox News", and now you said "Fox News Opinion Shows". But anyway that's fine to narrow the scope.

You went on to say this:

You are mixing "News" and "Media" which is not fair based on your own previous statement. If you are going to compare Fox News with CNN News, then that's fair. If you are going to compare Fox Opinion shows with MSNBC Opinion Shows, then that's fair too. The term "Media" encompasses all of the above, but as you requested, we should narrow the scope.

So then. The News of Fox News never personally slammed Obama? I don't know this for sure but ok I will give you this. Then the News of CNN News never slammed Trump either. It's true. That means then that all of the negative crap comes from the opinion shows. Is this fair? I don't think I'm right here so please provide links if I'm wrong but I'm willing to meet you half way on this just to push the discussion forward.

After that you clarified what you mean regarding Sean Hannity. My goof.

But Sean Hannity has called himself a journalist, and his "talk show" looks a lot like a news show, doesn't it?

Why? This is a really interesting conversation Robbie, to me anyway. I won this one. Come on buddy you look like you can take a hit or 2 without being knocked down.

Cheers? Tits? Cheers & Tits?
