26. lets be honest
fox news doesnt outright lie all day- no they spin; just like all other major news outlets (CNN, MSNBC...). We just disagree with their view.

I for one would not want to live in a country which would ban such a thing- who determines what the "truth" is? The government regulators? If its the regulators couldnt they call whats true a lie and vice versa? Sounds orwellian to me. I don't want a law telling me what i can and cannot view when it comes to opinions. Let me make up my own decision in regard to who's telling the truth.

Freedom of speech rights are there to make sure that government can't do what you are advocating now
