This Week in WoW: 26 April, 2024
Season 4... Just old dungeons and new ilvl?
MMO-Champion
So this isnt some partisan slam on the obviously far right propaganda outfit that is fox (whoops just did it... heh)
But my question is this. It seems like everytime i just flick it on just to see whats on THEY NEVER ACTUALLY talk about business, its literaly just hate obama with the S&P500 and DOW floating beneath the screen.
Am I missing something?

I thought FBN stood for Fox Benghazi Network. Whoops.

I thought it stood for Freer Businesses Now. Unrestrained free markets, yo. Mea Culpa.

You're watching after the markets close then. During trading hours, there's actually quite a bit of discussion on stocks, market trends, and economic analysis. That's not to say that these discussions aren't biased, but they are actually useful if you are trying to get business information. I used to watch it during lunch, actually saw quite a few interesting interviews with upcoming CEOs about their respective markets and the influence of changing technology.
After closing bell though? Yeah, basically just another Fox News channel.

Has anyone really watched Fox for news? If you want to have business news just read Reuters.

Any biased political channel is horse shit... CNN, MSNBC, FOX... they're all a load of crap. Anyone who watches that crap and cites it when making arguments is just a biased individual who I could careless about indulging in a political debate with. I argue the consensual view, so it's annoying when people still try to argue their side... it's like wtf, here I am standing at the middle line willing to shake hands, but they're so egotistical about their views that they won't even settle for 70/30 let alone 80/20.

Nah. They are "entertainment", they said so themselves in court when someone sued them for inaccurate information, business is boring and not entertaining.

That's what journalism is, entertainment. You think other networks are somehow better? Journalism = joke. Originally Posted by SodiumChloride
