I can sometimes watch Fox News for a few minutes, but the spin is always amazing to me. I often go and look up the story at a reputable site so that I can actually understand what they are talking about. The Fox take on the story is usually so slanted that if a person goes somewhere else and gets the facts, the Fox story is clearly a misrepresentation."Like any news channel there’s lot of room for non-news content," the former employee continued. "The content that wasn't 'news,' they didn't care what we did with as long as it was amusing or quirky or entertaining; as along as it brought in eyeballs. But anything - anything - that was a news story you had to understand what the spin should be on it.""If it was a big enough story it was explained to you in the morning [editorial] meeting. If it wasn’t explained, it was up to you to know the conservative take on it. There’s a conservative take on every story no matter what it is. So you either get told what it is or you better intuitively know what it is."
Actually, the last post was also in the links. I forgot that in my excitement to find out that another decent, Midwestern state is being run by a blowhard.
