CNN Vs. Fox on Iraqi election coverage
CNN reporters are in the polling places, talking to real Iraqis. Fox's reporters are behind fences and barriers. They report with no Iraqis visible in the shot. CNN is amongst the people.

Just like Katrina. Fox is pathetic.

1. Welcome to DU, DeBunk!
:hi:

And yes, Faux is pathetic...as pathetic as the admin it protects and defends. I contend that America wasn't nearly as viciously divided until Faux came onto the scene. What do you think?

2. Fox just has to look good, they get their talking points from
White House connections.

They could never get to the real people. Wouldn't be good for them.

5. I saw CNN's "BREAKING NEWS" about the polls opening,
and that was enough for me.

6. Fox News is not about news or journalism.

But we already knew that.

CNN pretends to journalism, or at least to the pretty new pictures that look as if some is taking place.

8. Fox should just shoot their reporters in front of a blue screen
no one who watches that network would notice or care.
