Posting in a Boxy 49 day old necro thread about Fox News.

Even though viewership is down , it's still has 50x more viewers than the propaganda wing of the DNC named MSNBC.

People still watch TV news?  

Yes Cicero... they do.  But I wouldn't categorize FoxSnooze as "TV NEWS".
Some examples:
1. The O'Reilly Factor
Fox News -- 2.624 million total viewers
2. The Five
Fox News -- 1.888 million total viewers
3. Hannity
Fox News -- 1.769 million total viewers
It explains a lot of the Right Wing BS that you read on this forum.  

As far as actual "NEWS":               
Total Viewers:          
NBC  7,163,000
ABC  6,989,000
CBS  5,842,000

So tell us Cissy... Where do you get your "NEWS"?

Not Foxsnooze. Not the big Alphabet Networks, or PBS, CNN or MSNBC?  
When a dam breaks in Idaho, how do you find out about it?
Do you hear that news from some hermit living in the woods with a satellite dish and a computer???
Do you get your "NEWS" from Right Wing Blogs?
From Anarchists R US?

When you don't believe in 'education', government, the press, or anything but yourself...
Where do you get your news?

I think people have gotten sick of ALL BIASED media outlets and are choosing not to tune in...

I get news from people that watch it.  I don't have to watch the news to find out the narrative being pushed, I listen to the parrots.  I do scan websites like Drudge for the headlines to findout what the next thing my friends and coworkers are being told is important, because a group of news producers decided its important.

Take you for example, one news producer decides to run stories saying the Bengazi story should be important to me, while I have you and other media telling me it is fabricated and not important.  Which is it?  Or the IRS, the NSA, Syria, Fast and Furious, Iraq's WMD's, Zimmerman/Martin, or the array of selected newsworthy events that are selected over the vast number of newsworthy events that can be reported daily.

I listen to the selected current events, and I take less and less stock in them knowing that most are contrived propaganda to further a political agenda.  I come on here and play the point counterpoint debate game, but like a growing number of Americans, I see it for what it is.

So Cissy gets his news from "rumors".  
I guess that IS better than getting your news from FoxSnooze!

Box relies on the people that start the rumor.  And then puts FACT in all caps to validate the rumor.LOL

that is true!!
nobody (except the sheople) believes the 'boogie man' rhetoric anymore!
rhetoric that they hope the sheople will believe to support their 'created WAR ON TERROR'!
rhetoric that sheople believe that justifies the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children!

The LAME STREAM MEDIA aka ARM OF THE GOVERNMENT is losing all credibility!!! FINALLY!!

Did I get it wrong Cicero??? Didn't you just post that you get your news from:
~ "from people that watch it", so instead of getting your news first hand, you get your news filtered
once or more through the personal biases of those who DO watch the news.
So... Unreliable news from an unreliable source?  LMAO!

~ "I listen to the parrots" But aren't the "parrots" watching FoxSnooze or Maddow etc?  So
you are getting your news by proxy from these outlets?

~ "to find out what the next thing my friends and coworkers are being told is important" So if
Cicero's friends and coworkers are idiots... cissy will get his NEWS from IDIOTS!  Good source!

~ "knowing that most are contrived propaganda to further a political agenda" The reason that
Cissy's posts all seem like "contrived propaganda" has now been exposed.  THEY ARE CONTRIVED
PROPAGANDA RIGHT FROM THE SOURCE!!!  
OMG Cicero    You're a hoot!

Keep watching your "actual news" box...you'll feel like you are "in the know" of all the worlds happenings.  I will listen to the mindless chatter of those droning through life regurgitating it.  They will tell me exactly what they think I need to know and what's important.  And when I don't shutter in fear or become angry, and actually laugh, they will look at me with that puzzled look, as if I am naive and uninformed.  When I know the joke is on them, most of what they know is most likely untrue and planted in their head by some news anchor.  I probably shouldn't laugh because its sad, but I don't want to offend friends and coworkers.  I save my offending for when I post here.HAHAHA!!

Cicero's neighbor and a coworker tell Cicero:

"MOVE CISSY, THERE IS AN OUT OF CONTROL CITY BUS HEADING RIGHT FOR YOU"

Of course, Cissy won't believe them... he filters out the information, considers the bias and laughs
at them... just as the Out Of Control City Bus crushes Cissy into road kill!

(come to think of it... that IS kinda funny! )

The MSM lets you know what they want you to hear and see, you will never see the truth like the videos I posted in the Syria topic from any of the news channels.
