    Drumpf will go down as the worst president in American history without even a close second. Reagans place in history is already established and I can assure you that Obama will be looked upon far far more favorably than Drumpf who will be relegated to the trash bin of history.

    Cable news is an ancient demographic and Fox's demographic is the oldest. The reason that fox is in first is because only geriatric old fools like yourself watch it.

    In my experience any time someone trumpets that the complete opposite is true.

    More Americans watch Fox than any other news source and that has been true for the past 23 months. https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/may-...-months/365840

    It is even more significant when one compares the demographic with voters. Young kids who watch comedy shows like Colbert of Daily show don't vote. Youngsters vote in the USA 13% Old timers 61%.

    Any way you look at it Fox is really dominant with the age group that matters the folks who control the country by going to the polls and voting.

    That was my earlier point. Nothing to do with anything but anti American vitriol. I don't think most of the folks criticizing Fox reside in a country where it is broadcast so have no opportunity to form an informed opinion.

    I didn't see where you made the point that Fox News viewers are retarded and that that means many Americans are retarded. But good on you for agreeing with so many of us.
    Fox is available almost everywhere. I got it in NZ and Australia. Watched it enough to confirm and agree with all the criticism. There's a sort of incredulous amusement watching the talking heads spout dumb propaganda and slimy greasing of Trump.

    BTW, since you are a self-confessed NON-viewer of Fox, you are the least qualified to make an informed opinion on it.
    So maybe shush on Fox and it's critics.

    I do and I will say you do not have to live here to see that it is pure propaganda. It is only the brainwashed who can not see it. In fact I would say that it is easier for someone who is not in America to recognize fox news for what it really is.

    You're probably right there.
    Marky doesn't watch Fox so he doesn't know a thing about it.

    ^I look at Fox on the computer pretty much daily, along with a variety of other news outlets. It's not really difficult to separate the bullshit from the 'news'.

    Right but you have also not been conditioned by the president and others into thinking that all mainstream media is fake news. Many in the US do not even read the NYT, WaPo, WSJ because they have been duped into thinking they are fake sources. Those dummies have no place other than fox news, breitbart etc for news. Hence the brainwashing.

    Unfortunately, all three of these outlets block their news stories unless you subscribe.

    To be brainwashed by such a transparently dishonest snake-oil salesman liar of a president, one has to be quite dense.

    ^ Yes, for you, David, but Bsnub was referring to the great unwashed American redneck public who could, if they chose, watch it on TV, but choose to ignore all news other than the fake news propaganda stations that their dear leader extolls.

    I used to watch Fox news until I became convinced it was too one sided and didn't give a fair picture of the news. I used to watch CNN until I became convinced it was too one sided and didn't give a fair picture of the news. I used to watch BBC until I became convinced they employed pedophiles, knew about and didn't do anything about it.

    Now I occasionally click on a story from all three networks that appears in the Drudge Report of other news sources. Is the Fox news broadcast in Australia the same as the one in the USA?

    I don't think anyone was brainwashed. I lived in Arkansas when the Clinton's were in charge and anyone would make a better President than her and I think that fact was realized and is realized by most Americans including the FBI who squashed her candidacy.

    Know a lot about America eh? Who else lived in Arkansas? Bill Clinton, Douglas MacArthur, Sam Walton and Kobe Tai. I lived there because of the beautiful women, gambling/horse racing and more hookers than Walking street (Bill ran a wide open state when he was attorney general.) I worked for the Rockefeller family in Arkansas as they have major holdings there. Who were my buddies in Arkansas? Clinton, Rockefeller, Jerry Jones (Dallas Cowboys owner) and Kobe Tai. I met my second wife there. She was a looker. She helped Jones when he first organized the new Dallas Cowgirls. And of course Lou Holtz. Lou Holtz and the Arkansas Razorbacks. I always felt privileged to have known Lou. He as a man among men and he coached in Arkansas for 7 years. He raised money in my bar and called the hogs.

    They mine diamonds in Arkansas and raise ginseng. Arkansas is the only American state that could exist 100% without any help from outside (or so I was told in school). They got oil and a small rice farm is 10,000 acres. Their rice crop is 2 billion annually. Arkansas has a larger GDP than Kuwait. I was proud I lived in Arkansas and I still have family there. Beautiful state. Nice people. Good Whiskey. Faster horses. Al Capone had a house there too.

    My motivation for writing the above is another posted implied that living in Arkansas is negative life event. An ignorant person with little knowledge about the United States might feel that way if they are easily influenced by tawdry media and fake news. However Arkansas is a nice place. Better than most. As anyone with a modicum of knowledge of the American South would know. Winthrop Rockefeller one of the richest men in the world drove a truck in Arkansas and was accessible. He also bought a mountain where I lived (Petite Jean) and introduced Santa Gertrudis cattle . My family lived in Yell County where the movie True Grit was set written by an Arkansas writer. So now maybe you know a little about a place that before you only had negative stereotypes.

    I'd post a photo of Kobi Tai but IO don't have one with her clothes on.

    US version of LT on the rise.
    A week ago he was several red cabbages, so someone's supporting him. The usual suspects probably.

    Lets pretend you fellows want to get at the truth. BBC today interviewed Comey on Hardtalk. I just watched it. Fox also interviewed Comey on the same subjects. James Comey on Clinton probe, Russia investigation | On Air Videos | Fox News

    Watch both interviews and contrast and compare. It will make or break your argument here in one fell swoop.
