    I chose to ignore such a silly ploy about a silly network reporting policy. Such a discussion is irrelevant to me, so I'll take those crickets as a badge of honor that the subject is being dismissed. That's the way you should take it too, as your opinion about the church goers complaints. DISMISSED as irrelevant!

    Nah. You just had no clue as to what the answer would be. I hear this silliness all the time. "The NYT is biased?? Oh yeah, well so is Fox News!" Except they don't seem to be able to find examples of bias, just like you can't either.

    I've done my homework...do your own. Or be willing to pay for services rendered...CASH in advance, since you still owe the outstanding debt for building the nation you enjoy by my elders and ancestors.

    No more credit or free work. Pay up, or shut up! Or do it your darn self!

    Fox News owned by Rupert Murdoch and once run by Roger Ailes - now gone because of sexual harassment - is easily the worst of any major media utterly failing journalistic principles by rarely straight reporting, almost always spinning sharply to the right-wing and the only source read by 40-50% of conservatives and Trump supporters. That's a major reason most Trump supporters are so ignorant re current events.

    With a lineup like Carlson, Hannity and Ingraham, no one expects the truth.

    You want examples of bias? Here's a tiny selection.

    Almost always??? Silliness.

    As to your links, you can usually find instances of poor fact checking from most opinion journalists. But when you find a situation like now exists at the Times where conservative opinion cannot be allowed, even to the firing of the editor, then you will have a legit gripe. Or when you can find an instance of Fox helping one participant in a debate to the detriment of the other such as happened with CNN, then you have a real complaint.

    Here's a little more from CNN to chew on.

    You asked for examples of bias. You got examples of bias.

    Then you went ahead and changed the subject. And you wonder why anybody ever bothers to answer your questions!

    No one has asked you to participate. Stop replying by all means. You will do all of us a favor.

    The topic was news bias. I have not changed the subject, but I did provide examples that made you uncomfortable.

    This bears repeating. "But when you find a situation like now exists at the Times where conservative opinion cannot be allowed, even to the firing of the editor, then you will have a legit gripe. Or when you can find an instance of Fox helping one participant in a debate to the detriment of the other such as happened with CNN, then you have a real complaint."

    Or the media actively working to get Biden nominated at the expense of Sanders and Warren.

    That's pretty much it. If you watch Fox (rarely for me), you know what you are getting with Hannity, Tucker, etc. It's the hard news that should concern us.

    Sanders and Warren suspended their campaigns months ago and have endorsed Biden already. Last years news has been replaced by current events and the voters. Bernie is still collecting delegates to influence the dem platform.

    Understandable a socialist magazine would be for the Bern though.

    Actually, I was just following your example. "Last years news has been replaced by current events and the voters." But you were able to dodge the question.

    There was no time restriction on your question of bias in the media, so you must have been nitpicking, to lower Athos's grade.

    Aha! Got to you, didn't I? If you don't have an answer, silence the opposition. You must be a terror in your little social circle.

    How far up the dufus' arse do you need to be to determine who posts on these pages? If you want to play that game, then here's news about how you are seen here.

    You are the most despicable and unwlecome moron to ever disgrace these pages with your lies, evasions, and idiocies. Your racism which is now coming to the fore is especially disgraceful as the country is trying to come to terms with it by truly attempting to understand the black experience. Your stuck-in-the-past notions tell us all we need to know about you.

    When you insult me or others, it is a sure tell we are getting to you. Your attempt at shutting up those who see through you is a transparent attempt to make up for your deficiencies.

    From your strange positions on abortion and hell, taxes, and race you contribute nothing to this website.

    Head, dufus, arse perfectly describes you.

    Insult you, little man with big mouth?(Wow. I like that. I've got to find the Choctaw name for that. I'll work on it.) Nah. Not worth it. Just really pity you. You were caught lying about Aquinas, and you've never gotten over it. That's where the poison is coming from, so I don't take it personally. Your ego just can't handle it, and you're running from God as fast as you can go. That's regrettable.

    I do hope to use your post above for my Christian youth group presentation, though I'll have to edit out some of your vulgar words. Like I said earlier, you're just a never ending fountain of material. Thanks!

    You're pretty much a one-note moron, repeating over and over the same nonsense.

    Your Christian youth organization presentation is priceless. Be sure and tell them how you are so confounded with your bizarre nonsense that most of those fetuses you cry crocodile tears over for being aborted wind up in a hell for all eternity being tortured. Not a very nice picture, is it? Yet it is your firm belief, stated here several times. Be sure and tell them that, ok?

    Now, continue with your nastiness. It has become your trademark.
