What the BBC tells you? It is easy to get your news through whatever source you prefer, television, print, internet, and then follow up on the "news" that was reported to you that one with semi-intelligence can determine news from opinion. My trust in what I see and read as "news" on BBC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, LA Times, Washington Post, is very scant, thankfully for other sources and opinions. <br /><br />If you feel my beliefs and values have been shaped by Fox News however, you have not been paying much attention!Dennis C Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00914332467365539148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-771892655051987797.post-8056964711885762452010-03-31T09:20:03.021-07:002010-03-31T09:20:03.021-07:00If you want to accept what passes for news on Fox,...If you want to accept what passes for news on Fox, bless you. If you base your votes and contributions on it, I suspect you'll eventually come to regret your decisions. Fox isn't news -- it's demagoguery in newscast format. If you're genuinely interested in information, try the BBC or the New York Times. If you ignore the ranting on the editorial pages, the Wall Street Journal isn't too bad for economic news, though The Economist is probably more accurate.<br /><br />More important is the fact that a large number of people are getting information from multiple sources these days and drawing their own conclusions. If you look carefully at the numbers, it's not so much an audience shift as it is that a huge number of people have stopped getting their information from TV and newspapers altogether. <br /><br />Do you REALLY believe what Fox tells you?
