The only thing I watch on PBS are the British comedies on Sat.
evening.
Everything else is liberal left wing crap

What's the matter? You can't handle the truth?



No but a little balance would be nice. PBS, CBS, ABC, CNN, and MSNBC
are all leftist, pro-big-government channels. FOX is centrist. [...]

Ok, we finally found the one person on the planet that thinks FOX is
"centrist".

Fortunately, he's harmless ;-)

Actually a LOT of people think it's centrist. It's right of the left
leaning network news outlets and CNN.

Well, of course it's to the right. And other than that 21% of the population
that still admit to remaining Republican (or at least RINO) my bet is a LOT
MORE people think it's a lot further to the right.

In any case....do you really think Rupert Murdoch could be considered - by an
actual sane person - as being a "centrist"?

How about the network's "stars", like Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Laura
Ingraham, Karl Rove, and Glenn Beck - not to mention frequent contributors
like Oliver North and Ann Coulter, et al. Which one of those people is the
"centrist"?

The only thing more humorous is their slogan...

Where do you get your news.......MSNBC? I watch Olbermann
once in a while for comedy relief. LOL!

I visited a friend this past Sunday.  I don't have cable television
but he does, so we talked for awhile and then he turned-on the set.
Flip.  Flip.  Flip.  Nothing.  Nothing.  Nothing.  70 channels and
nothing worth watching.  Eventually we stopped on a John Travolta
movie, but not for long since we both had seen it multiple times, and
we both agreed it was crap.   Flip.  Flip.  Flip.

I've come to the conclusion that cable tv, like insurance, is a giant
scam to get people to waste their hard-earned money to get almost
nothing in return.

Contrast that with over-the-air TV where I get around 25 channels and
hundreds of shows at no cost.  Much better deal in my humble opinion,
and for those few shows I don't get to see (like Battlestar Galactica)
I can rent on DVD for cheap.   I'm glad I don't waste over 700 dollars
a year on cable.

well woop-dee doo for you, thanks for sharing. Many would disagree
with the cable part and the insurance part. Tuck that 700 away for
something better whatever you may find that to be

My retirement so I don't have to live like a parasite off my children

Why make insulting inferences like that? With every post I think you are more

Tell me, Troy...just how do you plan to get your imaginary girlfriend

You're right. You're not getting my $700 a year. I hope you and
your company go bankrupt (like Circuit City did). Poor service
begets lose of business.

And there are no "variables" to consider. Free tv is free tv.
Nothing Comcast cable has to offer can beat that. Even their
internet is overpriced - $60 a month??? Verizon DSL only costs me
$15.

 You are like so many other Internet pseudo-intellectuals -
