Rick,what people need to realize is that Tucker, Hanity, and all the others don't REPORT the news they SELL the news, all of the news agency's SELL the news or what they want you to believe is the news, old school journalism is dead and gone.
And that's where I stand on the fact that FOX has had a higher viewership than the next two, sometimes three, major news outlets, combined, since its first year on air. You don't do that by lying to your viewers. You do that by sticking to the facts and avoiding the spin. The free market in action. People don't like being lied to, so they go elsewhere. This is why CNN is on the brink of bankruptcy, and not even The ONION wants to buy them.
To be fair... Both Tucker and Hannity are openly advertised as opinion segments. They are NOT reporting the news, and they don't profess to. They are presenting their opinion on news we've all heard/seen/read prior. But, as I said, you're damned hard pressed finding a statement that is less than completely factual in Tucker's commentary.
Thanks. Brad.
