And the question of trust them to do what? jberryhill Apr 2018 #26
"as a source of information." Ms. Toad Apr 2018 #27
So much for their "Fair and Balanced" slogan. I'd never heard of Bill O'Reilly and the first time Doitnow Apr 2018 #7
Same here for Limbaugh. KY_EnviroGuy Apr 2018 #20
Thirty percent. ChazInAz Apr 2018 #8

This OP could just as well have been written by FOX news. Captain Stern Apr 2018 #17
That was my take, as well. n/t Ms. Toad Apr 2018 #23
Raw Story's headlines are often sensational and overblown. The Velveteen Ocelot Apr 2018 #28
The worst at that are Jason Easley's pieces at politicususa.com (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2018 #34
Raw Story is such garbage oberliner Apr 2018 #39
Agreed. All he said was "This is wrong graphic". knightmaar Apr 2018 #32
Yup, misleading article. (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2018 #35
That was great. It sounded like a pretty smooth "take that down please", but yonder Apr 2018 #18
He brought the same graphic up later, so obviously he didn't think it was a big deal. knightmaar Apr 2018 #33

Well that cheered me up Puzzler Apr 2018 #25
That graphic makes no sense to me. tavernier Apr 2018 #29
Because this OP mis-represents what the graphic is saying oberliner Apr 2018 #30
That doesnt work either. tavernier Apr 2018 #31
Well the graphic leaves out "trust both equally" oberliner Apr 2018 #36
I agree with you, but the graphic is still odd. thesquanderer Apr 2018 #37
Yes, agreed oberliner Apr 2018 #44
Why Would Howie Kurtz Even Care? ProfessorGAC Apr 2018 #38
Am confused UpInArms Apr 2018 #40
That is because people are misrepresenting what it shows. Ms. Toad Apr 2018 #41
Thank you for clarifying UpInArms Apr 2018 #42
When I initially pointed that out, I was accused of "defending Fox propaganda" oberliner Apr 2018 #45
I saw that. n/t Ms. Toad Apr 2018 #46
