Sometimes I wonder about changing my party affiliation but then I watch Fox News and silently thank God that I was raised a Democrat.

Who's with me?

Then, I want to figure out how Fox News' statisticians come up with their numbers.


are you kidding me? they poll their viewers. it's selective sampling.

O'Reilly actually has dissenting voices from intelligent people, like Christopher Hitchens. I trust neither one of them for news, especially since the BBC comes on after their timeslots, so if I look at them purely as opinion shows, I'd much rather watch O'Reilly than Olbermann for the diversity of views, since both of the hosts themselves give me a headache.


for one, hitchens, in that instance, had a barely dissenting voice. to begin the interview by affirming his support of a war in iraq is a tad laughable. further, the interview was actually rather atypical in that bill rarely cut hitchens off, didn't cut his mic, & didn't scream like an ape @ him. when bill o'reilly has a "dissenting" view on his station it's a lot like kent hovind (or some equally infamous creationist) debating richard dawkins (or some equally infamous evolutionist) in a church flooding over the sides with self-described "sinners." bill o'reilly knows that it doesn't matter what he says in the debate or the interview, insofar as his flexes his moron muscles & barks like a dog... everyone watching his show has already decided who they disagree with & who they agree with. there is a good reason richard dawkins refuses to debate kent hovind.
