  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Wow ............. ever since marrying my gorgeous US bride I am amazed at how strongly feelings flow over news media.

In fact even the fact that political conventions look like they came from Hollywood is just a characteristic of US folk. Great stuff........

Interesting: I just accepted that the US media tended to take sides and were biased. Just the way things are. So I look at a few sources. I am more used to the BBC style.

PS- Having seen the various media I admit I do agree with the underlying sentiment presented.

Try to guess which headline is from Fox News and which one is from some other left-wing lamestream media source.

Fox or Not


Lol

I searched the first two headlines in that quiz. The first turned out to be a blog post on a conservative blog and the second turned out to be an opinion article from a National Review opinion piece reposted at Fox Nation. Seems a bit disingenuous for them to be comparing commentary headlines to news headlines

It is curious how most Liberals on this website only visit Left leaning sites and then wrongly mock the Religious Right of being narrow for only going to Fox for all their news. It's very curious :wave:

To get the real story you need to visit as many sites as possible. CNN is just as bad as Fox. I admit that CNN probably has better headlines, but the content is just as skewed.

True. I'm always amazed at how time the left spends talking about Fox. For a news outlet that they believe is crazy they sure give it a lot of attention.

I seriously doubt that's true.

It might be if it were true.:wave:

I agree with you on this.

No, it actually isn't. CNN has never handed out daily talking point memos as Fox has done.
