@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a I was right, it was you.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a At least Hannity is open and honest about his biases, though. Rachel Maddow, his left-wing counterpart, is not quite so transparent.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a She has never tried to hide it.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a She claims to be a journalist though. At least Hannity is open about the fact that, at the least, he has no rigorous journalistic standards.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Maddow: Highly educated.
Carlson: BA in history
Hannity: College drop out.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Cuz you should only get your information who have graduated college...riiiiiiight...🙄
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Would you prefer your news from someone in the 7th grade?? Stop making stupid comments!!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
If they're telling the truth I'm down.
You don't have to belong to a specific class to get the news right.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a What are you talking about?? You seem to be under the impression that Fox tells the truth.
A factual search reveals several failed fact checks by news hosts.
Says John Bolton “fundamentally was a man of the left.” – PANTS OF FIRE
“The president said he’s going to bring in 250,000 (Syrian and Iraqi) refugees into this country.” – PANTS ON FIRE
“Far more children died last year drowning in their bathtubs than were killed accidentally by guns.” – PANTS ON FIRE
“NASA scientists fudged the numbers to make 1998 the hottest year to overstate the extent of global warming.” – PANTS ON FIRE
Obamacare is “one big fat VA system.” – PANTS ON FIRE
Says Marie Yovanovitch was “dishonest” when she claimed under oath that she never personally responded to an email from a Democratic staffer. But “in fact, it turns out that she did respond.” – False
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
You seem to be under the impression that MSNBC and CNN tell the truth.
MSNBC Live and Ari & Velshi, to their credit, aren't terrible, but generally speaking, MSNBC and CNN tell lies all day long.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
"You seem to be under the impression that MSNBC and CNN tell the truth."
Quote where I said that!! You seem to like trying to put words in my mouth.

@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Was Fox News ever fined for lying? No.
Was MSNBC ever fined for lying? Yes.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Cable broadcasters are not regulated by the FCC moron. And you are still in college???
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
That explains why there's no "license" for the Fox News Channel describing it as an entertainment channel, as you had claimed.
Wait for it...
They're not regulated by the FCC!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Oh and yeah I'm still in college.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Fucking amazing!!
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
This college isn't trying to brainwash me, so I'm good 😎
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a I don't know of any college that does that....despite what you think. But in your case, maybe they should!
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a And I was right....you are a moron.
Tucker Carlson attained his secondary education at St. George's School, a boarding school in Middletown, Rhode Island. He then went to Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, where he graduated in 1991 with a BA in history.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Tucker Carlson is in no way comparable to Hannity and Maddow, as both break stories, while Tucker only spouts his opinion.
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a You do realize that Fox is not a news station. It is listed as an entertainment station.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a Where is it listed as an entertainment channel?
@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a In their license....now be a good boy and go do your homework for Monday.
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
Hmm...I am not seeing any evidence of your claim; can I borrow your textbook? 😝
This page here says it's false, and while their reasoning appears legit at face value, they seem to be conservative so they might be biased:
https://1stamender.com/article.php?articlenumber=1418
Snopes marked a claim that they were classified as parody news as false, but made no mention of an actual classification:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fox-in-box/
The closest thing I could find to your claim is a Daily Kos article misconstruing Fox News boasting about their hosts being entertaining to mean that they view their own channel as entertainment:
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/1/14/1620475/-Fox-News-Is-NOT-News-Network-s-Own-Ads-Label-Its-Programming-As-Entertainment
Multiple Quora answers claim that Fox News is * not * registered as an entertainment station, but they're not rock-solid proof in my book. (Still, it is more evidence than you have provided.)

@realcaseyrollins @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
As of October 2018, Fox News has added to their terms of use that they are an entertainment company: “Company furnishes the Company Sites and the Company Services for your personal enjoyment and entertainment.”
@TImW381 @Mismatchedhairs @gab @a
That applies only to the site and apps.
She a journo about as much as Ronald McDonald is a chef.
@realcaseyrollins @qoto.org @gab @a @TImW381
@Mismatchedhairs @realcaseyrollins @gab @a Let's review....she has advance degrees and numerous awards. Carlson has a BA in History while Hannity dropped out of college.
But sure, she isn't a journalist.
She goes on air and drops opinion piece after opinion piece and had to testify in open court that "things said on air shouldn't be considered factual".
I could give a shit less about her academics... It's like you're implying that being educated means a person should be taken at face value and never scrutinized. Sorry, but I like my news a little less opinionated and a little more objective.
@Mismatchedhairs @realcaseyrollins @gab @a Oh, so you think FOX is not opinionated?? And you are being serious????
Hannity: "I am not a journalist, I am a F*ing talk show host."
I didn't say anything about Fox
Pretty much 99% of MSM is garbage.
I'm fairly certain I spoke negatively about Maddow, not a word one way or the other about Fox.
@Mismatchedhairs @realcaseyrollins @gab @a Um...very good!! You didn't.....I did. You are quite quick to point out the obvious.
Now I will post a little more about FOX:
Yeah. You did. You. And you then asked the question "are you seriously defending fox?!" putting words in my mouth.
We're done here I think. I've said my piece.
To reiterate, the whole of the MSM can screw off. Maddow is just the one to dump on now since she's the one in court saying how people shouldn't take her words as being factually accurate. Her fear mongering opinion pieces are no better than anything you get on any of the other networks - her education be damned.
@Mismatchedhairs @realcaseyrollins @gab @a Please quote where I said "are you seriously defending Fox."
The thing is, with Maddow, you get facts with PROOF.
And yes....you are done when you accuse me of doing exactly what you just tried to do!!
@Mismatchedhairs @gab @a funny thing is I remember when some leftie, I think it was @TImW381, was tryna tell me that Rachel Maddow is a journalist 🤣🤦🏾♂️ smh
