He was stating an opinion, much like the rest of the country. But for the right wing radicals to take Fox off the air would be paramount to treason and GOD KNOWS we need MSNBC to tell the truth about the lies spewed on FOX AND FRIENDS Roll Eyes AND KEEP THAT DIAL RIGHT WHERE IT IS!!!! Do you ever get the feeling you are being played by these networks??
Typical stupid leftist, who can't tolerate any opposing points of view. And, would use the power of the State to silence those whom he hates.

Fox is a cable TV station, not a broadcast station. The FCC has no power over them. Seems a senator should know that!

I'm for letting MSNBC and CNN exist for the entertainment value -- leftists on parade, talking to thin air and a dwindling audience.

Dial! What antique are you using!

Just an expression, one I am sure you would not understand since in your day they were knobs, but let everything but Fox and friends survive according to you? Yeah, it shows that you follow Glenn Beck, Seah Hannity, Bill O'Reilly and Gretchen Carlson. Your media overlords have trained you well.
Watching CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and NBC as well as reading the New York Times for actual NEWS is akin to an Ostrich with it's head in the sand. People watch FOX knowing that Fox is more Conservative than Liberal but they do present BOTH Sides and reasonable, rational representatives of both sides and viewpoints and let the listener formulate their own opinions. Does FOX have commentators? Yes but they don't disguise these commentators as reporters and news you know what you get as you listen.

The other mainstream "so called" news outlets squelch many stories that are unfavorable to the administration or to the liberals. Stories like the Justice department dismissing the case against the new Black Panthers and defining abuses against voter rights as only applicable to blacks who are disenfranchised. I think this is news but was only available on FOX just like many other stories. Remember the private emails/conversations that was released where liberal, left, journalist agreed to cooperate together, during the election process, to squelch negative stories against Obama including even changing the story to make it positive rather than negative in order to make their chosen candidate look good?

Why is FOX growing in popularity and viewership? Because it's the only outlet that can be trusted and that isn't so obviously in the tank for the Administration. It's because, if you actually watched, you would know, they are the only ones that actually present both sides of a story and representatives of both sides. They may not be totally fair and balanced but are much closer to it than any other news entity out there today.

You've used this voter intimidation case as your shining example of the "liberal media" "squelching stories" before. It was covered. Here's the NY Times article:

New York Times

If you want any information on the particulars of that story, a quick search of google.com/news will yield ample results from a variety of sources.
For my conservative news, I prefer the National Review, the DC Examiner, the Washington Times, and the London Telegraph. I also read Michelle Malkin's blog and my friends in Europe at No-pasaran. I like to read Ann Coulter's weekly article. She knows how to get the leftists' blood pressure up. The woman plays them like Charlie Daniels plays a getfiddle.

I'm surprised by this. Though I often disagree with you interventor, you are one of the more reasonable conservatives posting here. Ann Coulter completely lacks tact and substance, and I'm surprised you like her. This is coming from someone who's liberal friends consider the antithesis of a leftist.
This old, tired cavilling about selective news reporting by the mainstream media just does not stand up under investigation. Many times I have seen complaints about the "lamestream" media (so, so cutely predictable epithet from the namecalling wingers)concerning neglect of some newsworthy item, only to surf around a couple of minutes and find plenty of items there about the allegedly neglected subject.

For some people who despise the mainstream media, it seems it is enough merely to simply allege that these "liberal" sources are dodging issues that make the left look bad. But that doesn't cut it, folks. I suspect that the right wingers who hate the mainstream media so much don't really do much investigation to see who actually is covering what. More likely, they spend too much time hearing the same old stories repeated ad nauseum by right-wing sources who are given to finding one story they like and then flailing it to death at every opportunity throughout the day and night.

For Ann, its more the entertainment value of watching the reaction from the permanently aggrieved left. She specializes in upsetting the left. Rather, like rubbing a cat's fur the wrong way.
