That is what my husband said when I told him we are picking up one of my friends at 3:45 a.m. and heading to the square for the show.

I will be there bright and early, what a great thrill to watch Fox and Friends from Sumpter Landing. It will be a great time.

Now if only we could get Jon Stewart's Daily Show here in TV . . . that would really make it "fair and balanced"

I am curious as to how praise of the show is "on topic" while criticism is not? IMHO if you choose to get your "news" from either Fox news OR MSNBC, you are learning little, and simply feeding your biases.

IMHO if you choose to get your "news" from either Fox news OR MSNBC, you are learning little, and simply feeding your biases.It's simple in that the praise was clearly about Fox & Friends, which was the topic of the thread, whereas the critics have been directing their criticisms toward the Sun which wasn't even mentioned in the topic and DEFINITELY NOT the focus of the topic of this thread!

As for the second part of your post, what does that statement have to do with anything I said in my post? I can't for the life of me think of any justifyable reason why you would even make such a comment? Fox & Friends is an entertainment program and not a news program any more than say Jon Stewart's show or Bill Mahrer's show is! And I made absolutely no mention of, attracks on or comments about either FoxNEWS or MSNBC!

Those of us without such a manacle enjoy more there is to offer.

I might agree with that but then again if you only watch CNN or network news you are in the same boat except with a different oar. And if you can't see and realize that then you are biased as well.

CNN and Network news are largely unbiased in my opinion, though there can be rare exceptions. The extreme right has long labled them as the "liberal media", in an attempt to legitimize thier biased viewpoint, and discredit any negative news that may come from those sources. It is one of the successful strategies promoted by unelected puppet masters such as Carl Rove and Roger Ailes. That's my opinion and I don't expect many will agree with me -- so be it.

I'm just thrilled I will get to see TV on TV! Since we haven't made it out to TV yet, and my husband has a lot of questions still, this should be good for us to get motivated and on that plane to TV. I (almost) don't care who's broadcasting, could be The Cartoon Network!

Liberals seemed to have been conditioned (in a kind of a Pavlov reaction) to immediately foam at the mouth, stiffen with anger, bulge their eyes and sometimes scream, or at least to mockingly laugh uncontrollably, whenever the stimulus of anyone mentioning FOX Network, for any reason, presents itself.

It's sad but someday, with extensive therapy, there might hope for remission. :laugh:

:sad:If Fox news is as unbiased as Some say, where are the Liberals ? I see that they are going to interview Ollie North, I have the greatest respect for him as I too served in the Marines, but if you ever read his column or his books , boy what a liberal. As for Gov. Scott I am sure the teachers and other union members cannot wait to see him here in our backyard in our square, which is being disrupted as per parking and entertainment this weekend. Gosh did I say Liberals, I mean conseratives, What does it take to get unb iased speakers here.:0000000000luvmyhors

I've never had a problem with Fox News because I never watch that channel. I grew up watching Huntley/Brinkley and still to this day I'll watch NBC for my news. For some reason I don't need to watch news channels all day, but sports channels, that's a different story.

Imagine if the developer of TV was person more like say, Art Rooney the owner of the Steelers, and he invited MSNBC or CNN morning news channels here. I believe the Republicans and especially the Tea Party fanatics would be out there Monday morning with all their signs and protests even more so than you're seeing from a few out-spoken democrats or independents. The Pendulum swings both ways.

I find that most people are so happy to be here that they don't want to mess up relationships by talking politics with people they don't know yet. And while democrats are a minority, they make their voices heard.

Guest

In my 11 months here, I have only gotten into one political argument, and that was with my next door neighbor. We have forgotten the episode and never talk politics again. We are still friends and he brings me his home grown tomatoes. Yummy, they are good.

That big tent at Lake Sumter Landing is kind of like a circus tent. Well, The Fox & Friends Circus with Ollie (where is Fawn Hall?) North, Rick ("I was CEO but did not know of Medicare fraud) Scott, and the rest of the clowns will have a good time.

Guess I will have to have my morning coffee somewhere besides Panera on Monday.

Richie, I am impressed than a New Jersey-ite knows the word "barista" and how to use it in a sentence.

Never cared for the taste of Starbuck's coffee. Also at Panera, you can get unlimited refills for no extra cost. I will trade liberal discussion for cheap coffee anyday.

Is it really necessary that our local paper's headlines for THREE days is about Fox news coming? I have no interest in seeing them since I don't listen to them, but do they think we are so old and memory impaired as to not remember what they had written for the past 5 days? There really are more important things to lead with....

In the larger world picture, you're probably justified in your puzzlement about the amount of coverage. But if you just keep it to The Villages, this is an really exciting event, and one in which The Villages is heavily invested in having come off without a hitch, and one which will shine a light on The Villages in a way that has been unprecedented.

(I, myself, am a little wary of that in the same way I dread telling people about a great little restaurant I've found, as I'd like to always find a table when I go.)

It's a spotlight moment. Check your hair and makeup.

The local paper is not just for people who already live here. On any given day of the week, hundreds of people are starting or finishing a lifestyle preview stay, or wannabe's are coming into a rental, or people who are moving into their home they just bought are seeing the headlines of the Sun on the newstands. Also, many of these people listed above do not have a newspaper subscription, and would only be buying single copies here and there as a newcomer. It might seem like overkill to residents, to have the headlines the same for 3 days, but not necessarily so for newcomers.

Good answer!! I don't consider all of the repeated headlines, etc a big deal. I scan the articles or skip them. As said, this is a big deal to the Villages. We are one of 15 places that FOX is going to visit. We even made the Orlando Sentinel - both in the main paper and the Lake County section.

I don't watch Fox news (or any other news station), but if I remember tomorrow I might tune in to see all of the Villagers attendng the show.

in all of the issues of the daily sun that i have read i always got the feeling that the paper serves the interests of the developer - with a few articles taken from the ap wires thrown in. and that's not a bad thing for me. always knew that if i wanted a 'real' newspaper i could buy one!

Guest

the issue is as stated above...TV is one of 15 cities in the USA to be chosen...the developer has bragging rights on a scale we would all like to have.

AND it is so easy to just turn the page if it is repetative or not of interest....really!

It sounds like a political nerve has been irritated. If you are so displeased with the coverage that it motivates "trashing" the paper, maybe you should take a page out of Donald Rumsfeld's book. When he was irritated by a Krugman piece in the New York Times, he didn't whine and rant. He cancelled his subscription. Perhaps a subscription to the NYT would be more compatible with your ideology and relieve your distress. I am sure you will appreciate the "unbiased" reporting and "leads" that old grey lady.... a bastion and benchmark of "professional" journalism.... offers.

By whose criteria do you state with authority that there "really" are more important things to lead with. A lot of folks including myself don't see it quite the same way you do. How about cutting some slack for those of us who enjoy and appreciate Fox News and the Sun?
