Fox News: “Fair and Balanced” Farce

As I mentioned before, Fox News put profits before Haitian earthquake coverage. Don’t get me wrong. They’ve got a ton of coverage just as long as it doesn’t get too much in the way of their prime time propaganda fiesta.
Bad news for the “Cost of Freedom” block already sluffed off to the relatively dead Saturday [...]

What happens when the Communists seize our government?

Today’s was the last Cost of Freedom prior to the election and it returned to its four half hour show format.
The resignation on the faces of the mostly economic libertarian panels of an Obama win was inescapable. This led to some surprising angst. Suddenly a lot of the standard pro-Republican partisanship evaporated. Wow! [...]

Why does Dennis Kucinich keep abusing himself on Fox News? Hot business question: Is Joe the Plumber running for Congress? Democrats to abolish the 401k? Ted Nugent excited over Palin! Cavuto on this and so much more!

I realize Congressmen are vain critters by definition but you still have to wonder about the intelligence of liberal Democrat Dennis Kucinich. Last time I caught him on Fox News Neil Cavuto was using him as a tool to trash Jimmy Carter. When Kucinich refused to play the gotcha game his mike got cut off [...]

Neil Cavuto cuts off a liberal’s mike who’s spoiling all his spin

The stock market has collapsed putting in a performance often compared to the Great Depression. So what is a happy capitalist like Neil Cavuto going to talk about? Who is he going to choose to talk to?
After broadcasting his hero Bush’s radio address, the who about 30 minutes into the program – I’m not sure [...]

Which ticket is best for our economy?

For the um-teenth time the pseudo business program Bulls & Bears asks the question which party is best for the economy. For the um-teenth time a show on the so-called “business block” abandons business news to promote the Republican party. This is Fox News so there’s no drama as to what the outcome of the [...]

Right-wing Fox News: Providing a big laugh!

Blogging about the extreme right-wing bias of Fox News’ so-called Saturday “business block” is admittedly picking low-hanging fruit. Endlessly repeating the same theme of the evil, America-hating Democrats/liberals intent on ruining the economy has become so monotonous they could simply tape their partisan spew once and repeat it week to week. Who’d notice the difference?
Today’s [...]

Are Democrats investing in failure?

It’s the sort of loaded question Fox News loves to ask. It’s equivalent of asking a husband if they enjoy beating their wife. You’re going to look bad no matter how you address the question. And we know Fox News is dedicated to making the Democrats look bad.

Neil Cavuto and the importance of Social Darwinism

Countless times I’ve discussed here and elsewhere how Fox’s business news is more about right-wing political spin than business issues. You’ll find that theme again in today’s clip but there’s far more to the picture. This clip from Neil Cavuto on Business illustrates how ideology drives Neil and his buddy conservatives on the panel more [...]

Fox News’ monkey business

Saturday after Saturday Fox News’ “business blocks” spends more time spinning politics to the right than telling viewers how to earn a buck. Of course, this makes a complete sham of Fox News’ “fair and balanced” marketing slogan. But is Fox News’ business block simply a political counter-weight to the alleged liberal so-called “mainstream media” [...]

Cavuto Out of The Closet!

On a segment of Cavuto on Business discussing one of my favorite topics, a 3rd party, Neal finally comes out and in a huff, reveals his complete support on Iraq as Ben Stein characterizes Iraq as a “disaster”.
