I don't see this as a double standard. Fox News is a joke; CNN on the other hand has always appealed to me as a more or less professional network. It's got its own set of blowhards (will someone rid the world of Nancy Grace and Lou Dobbs already?), but for the most part I expect it to report the news, not debate the protesters.

Good point. I've never said they were right to do this; I'm just carrying over frustration from that political board to this one I guess, because the right wingnuts on that board sincerely believe that Fox is completely unbiased and all the other networks are liberal propaganda machines.

I'd sooner watch Fox News Ludovico-style for half the day than continue to see Nancy Grace suck air.

That's a pretty close call between her and Sean Hannity. Sean follows the party line more so than most Republicans, but Grace gets off on kidnapped Aryan girls. Methinks she secretly enjoys nymphets.

It's her insufferable "Everyone is guilty" attitude, and her involvement in that woman killing herself. Southern belle bitch.

i feel like hannity does more damage to the party than anything beneficial for it.

Agreed. I don't care that his radio show and tv show have strong ratings. He simply parrots talking points and his fake laugh annoys me. I have nothing against him personally and he seems a nice enough guy, but for the life of me I cannot understand how he ever became this big. At least Rush can be funny. The only show on Fox that I can tolerate is Special Report with Bret Baier.

Seeing as I do not have cable (or tv for that matter), I read most of my news.

Nancy Grace's blow-hardness is non-partisan.

Being single with no dependents I have to pay federal taxes and have been doing so for the past few years since I graduated (post college I have always been in the 25% bracket). Though my situation has been unique since I have had to pay foreign taxes and have been given a foreign tax credit for the past couple years. Sure makes filing complicated...

What killed people in Puerto Rico and made them angry wasn't the income brackets, but the inclusion of a sales tax which previously didn't exist. Prior to Nov. 2006 there was no sales tax. It was crazy when I arrived here because I was so used to paying sales tax in all the states I have lived (on most items at least). However, the sales tax has been a significant burden for people here. There were promises about to repeal it, but with the government lacking funding I doubt that will happen.

MSNBC does its best between 7-10 EST the problem for the the rest sucks. Their afternoon and morning announcers are horrible.
