    This ought to piss off the lefties.

    Rupert Murdock's New's Corp is reporting that it's profits are sharply up due to patriotic coverage of the Iraq War. New's Corp, the parent of Fox News, saw it's profits double as viewers abandoned the major networks and other cable news broadcasters and instead tuned into watch Fox News. Fox claims that it had the most reporters on the ground and dedicated the most on air hours to the conflict which is what drew viewers to Fox's coverage.

    I got a kick out of this article. I do believe Fox is very biased to the right but I have to admite they make it entertaining to watch. I dislike how they dredge up the most wacked out extreme leftest they can find and then try to characterize all centerests and leftists as being just like the wackos they routinely parade on the air. Still, people are eatting this stuff up so there must be something to it.

      This is sadly unsurprising.

        Fox had the foxiest babes. There is little doubt how they won the coverage wars.

            Privatized government propaganda, I always found that fascinating.

              Did you ever read US News and World Report ? It is most impressive, I had the impression of reading Pravda. After all, there must be a demand in the US for propaganda... The Soviets have things to learn

                "Did you ever read US News and World Report ?"

                Yes, although they usually cultivate general chauvinism rather than a particular ideology, at least that was my impression.

                  How many Fox reporters were KIA? With the highest number on the ground, they should statistically have the highest share of reporters IN the ground. If not, someone will smell a conspiracy.
