Media Matters, BY THEIR OWN DEFINITION IS NOT A NEWS SOURCE.


They have one job...one...destroy Fox specifically and conservatives in general.

But surely NOT anything associated with real news.

"Media Matters for America (MMfA) is an IRS tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization that purports to document supposed conservative media bias. Media Matters Action Network (MMAN) is the affiliated 501(c)(4) organization that is the advocacy arm of MMfA.

Media Matters original goal was to serve as a “fact-checker” that focused on conservative media programming. But in practice, the organization primarily criticizes the opinions of Rush Limbaugh and the hosts and guests of Fox News Channel. MMfA was particularly focused Glenn Beck and was credited with leading the campaign to remove the host from Fox News airwaves.

In 2004, Democratic political operative and journalist David Brock received $2 million from several rich progressives to start Media Matters, with the goal of “monitoring” conservative commentators and to note any factual errors that they present on their television and radio programs. There was also an expectation that the material could be used by liberal talk radio hosts to help fill air time. MMfA was developed with help from the Center for American Progress.

While speaking of the left media onslaught, here are a few others often quoted on this forum....

"he Center for American Progress (CAP) and its parallel advocacy arm the Center for American Progress Action Fund (CAP Action) are two key cogs in the left-wing policy and message machine. Using the institutional imprimatur of CAP’s “think tank” and CAP Action’s blog ThinkProgress, CAP’s directors and funders — who include left-wing hedge fund titan George Soros — attempt to move national policy debates ever leftward."

"In a feature article on the expansion of ThinkProgress, POLITICO illustrated how the site differs from a mainstream news organization. POLITICO reported:

ThinkProgress [… is] hardly just another media organization. […] Further, CAP Action Fund openly runs political advocacy campaigns, and plays a central role in the Democratic Party’s infrastructure, and the new reporting staff down the hall isn’t exactly walled off from that message machine, nor does it necessarily keep its distance from liberal groups organizing advocacy campaigns targeting conservatives."

So when you see a source like THINK PROGRESS, it is an arm of the Democratic party !!!!!!

Sounds excellent to me. There should be more of these liberal fact checkers around to counter all the garbage Fox News puts on the airways each day.
One good thing about Fox News are the good looking ladies on the channel. Too bad they have to talk.

Let's see. Hilary is married to Bill. Bill is a scumbag, but his being married to her, I fully empathize with him. Is she scorned? Hmmm, good question. Define "scorned." However, I do believe her to be a bottom feeder.

Looks like Fox pays taxes and reports news, which the others mentioned do not.

I suppose if you simply want to be brainwashed....your choice is a good one.

I prefer to make up my own mind, but you enjoy yourself.

Watch what happens now.....

Our "intelligent" democrat posters (and I apologize to the many many real intelligent democrats for my sarcasm intended for the group that posts on here) will now begin an assault on Fox.

Not realizing that Fox is a real news site. Do they err...you betcha....do they have a bias on their NON news shows....yep, they do. BUT they do news.

The left wings sites make no pretense about NOT being about news...simply doing the wishes of the Democratic party.

Now, how dumb and easy can you be to come on here, accept from an organization that is telling you up front that they are brainwashing and yet criticizing a legitimate news source (MOST watched in the world) who does make errors at times.

You make that call, but the upcoming crap will show you who the dumb and easy is and who wants to be brainwashed and cares little about any facts at all.

Must be easier that way....no thinking of any kind involved.

There always needs to be someone who is just fine and happy with being brainwashed. Saves a lot of thinking and learning.

Funny that Fox is the number one news cable network in the world. They only got that way with the help of the liberal viewers.

"Garbage?" Would you care to elaborate? I watch several local news channels and find that there are many news items that they refuse to air, so I have to turn it to FOX in order to see what's going on in the world.

I see that you are one of those that prefer to be coddled and lied to. You like to be taken care of and kept in the dark like a mushroom. I feel sorry for you.

That's why liberals like the Community Organizer-in-chief. They want to be kept in the dark and taken care of. They are followers, not leaders. And they prefer than others fight for their freedom, so that they can stay home with their mothers.

Interesting; the many books written about the Clintons and their...only word that fits is...disgusting personal life and extremely shady dealing have NEVER been challenges to my knowledge and no suits filed for libel.

Some are truly disgusting actually. Monetarily, politically, sexually and certainly their very distant relationship with the truth.

Real thought full people have Trump, Carson, and Cruz leading for their party candidate for president. Who are the idiots?

What is the percentage of viewers of the Fox national news are Republicans? Do these viewers have another Republican party favoring station to go to? Does anyone believe that they are fair, and balanced? You want to watch a real news programs watch "Morning Joe", or MTP Daily.

The question a Democratic member of the committee should asked the head of the CIA at the time in a closed door Benghazi hearing is, "Did the CIA have anything to do with the statement that the attack on the embassy was in response to the anti-Muslim movie?" There may have been a reason for the statement other than the political one being put forward, or maybe not.

First, speaking of the candidates as you did, a FULL year ahead before any primaries serves no purpose. Of course, you know the list of leaders in polls at this time is filled with mostly non Presidents so will not respond to that part. I also find it offensive and rude calling people idiots. Does not do anything but make you look bad frankly but that is your call. Mostly when I speak negative, as I do and will, on Clinton for example or even our President, I offer a backup for what I am saying and have never referred to anyone as you did WITHOUT backing it up.

You are misunderstanding the idea here. I am taking no side on the continuing debate on Fox news. That debate was begun by Media Matters and the Democrat party in concert with their media outlets. I am neither a watcher of Fox news on a steady basis, nor any of the cable news channels.

I am being a bit self centered here, but want to insure you understand where I am coming from. I watch Morning Joe every morning of my life actually and have since the day it began. I also will watch CNN and MSNBC depending on what I am looking for.

Not sure I understand your question on other stations, but the implication is that Fox is favored to watch because they lean right and that Republicans have no other place to go. Now that gets to the crux of my point.

I subscribe to theory that you learn by investigating. Investigate by reading. If you want to add some tv watching to your background, so be it. Most of the basis for my information and posts are from reading.

The very nature of my comments revolve about people who actually use Media Matters or other sources (THINK PROGRESS for one). Those sites do not lean left; THEY ARE ACTUAL WORKING PARTS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY and using them as a source of information is totally dumb because you will only read revisionist history or revisionist facts. YOU WILL NOT LEARN ANYTHING. YOU WILL BE BRAINWASHED.

You are presenting your brain with information you know by its very essence is skewed and it is not hidden that is what it is. I am not inventing these things. Heck, Media Matters is a tax exempt orginization and THINK PROGRESS was set up by and for the Democratic party.

Then, to use that as a source on a political forum to make a point simply shows how naive and brainwashed you are.

I do not ever want to be that way. I respect people disagreeing with me but based on the facts and not spoon fed revised and mostly screened information.

Do the Republicans have such sites ? OF COURSE THEY DO. I see very little of them used to make a point on here and have just grown every frustrated with people using all these sites that are not even pretending to be news sites.

Fox is biased...ok.....but it is in fact a news orginization despite the cute little remarks that the sheep use on here use to describe them. I am not defending Fox in anyway and totally understand that their NON NEWS PROGRAMMING is skewed right.

What your point is I am not sure, but hope I clarified mine. Presenting things as news that are diatribes from a political party is sort of self degeneration of a sort. You simply admit you are brainwashed and have nothing to add from your own mind.

On the Benghazi question you raise, I think we have just begun with the questions and they will sharpen as more information is known. Ms Clinton is on the record on a number of things that she cannot take back. It was a political action, both hers and the Presidents and the commitee.

As I said, so what to the politics of the committee. Every black person shot by a white policeman is used by the Democratic party and the WH...every multiple shooting is used by anti gun people and if you are anywhere near as smart as you purport yourself to be, you know how it works. Benghazi committee was and is only part 1

Well, tell us when the last time was that Americans fought in a war for our freedom.

Sure was not Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, or Korea. World War II was the last time. That war ended 70 years ago.

How many soldiers died in all those wars after WWII? I bet their mothers would have liked them to stay home instead of being involved in civil wars or wars based on lies.

Ever wonder if your freedom and mine would be the same or even exist if we did not participate in those wars ?
