The point is honesty not ratings... but last I checked they weren't destroying MSNBC in prime time - though they probably do have a lead. CNN and MSNBC split viewership from the left while Fox gets all the viewership from the right.

And again, ratings don't = integrity.

None of the above have any integrity.

Fox News hits a new low: Last night when reporting on the cancellation of the Eagles' visit to the White House, Fox News showed pictures of Eagles' players kneeling, including one of Zach Ertz (who is white). In conjunction with the report, this clearly implied that they were kneeling during the national anthem. The only problem is that (contrary to what Trump has claimed) not one Eagles' player kneeled for the playing of the national anthem last season. Those pictures were of Eagles' players (including Ertz who is p***ed off) kneeling during a prayer before the game.

Any chance that Fox News clarifies that report? Of course not. That would mean that they had some class.

Your right about the Ertz deal but, raising the black power fist during the national anthem is totally different than kneeling right?.........

People are leaving CNN and MSNBC because of dishonest coverage.

I'm not saying FN isn't dishonest. But the people are speaking toward fox being less dishonest than the other two. Personally, I avoid all three of them because of dishonesty and I avoid MSNBC and CNN more so than fox so... theres that.

I'm glad for that. They clearly owe Zach Ertz an apology but haven't yet given one.

Not sure if you've ever seen the show Turn about the Washington spy ring in the revolutionary war but there is a newspaper in NY that was knowingly spreading falsities in favor of the British, who controlled NYC. NYC is taken by General Washington and his army. GW walked into the pub/press to confront the editor. He spoke about how he doesn't believe in prosecuting the editor but would like him to focus on the truth, not what entertains or panders. We've lost that. the media is an separate entity of the people anymore and we need to take it back.

Yeah, I guess that's the word. No way they didn't know what they were doing either. They had some young intern assigned with the task of coming up with pictures of Eagles players kneeling for the national anthem by a producer who just assumed that they had players who had done it. The intern couldn't find any and thought he/she could get away with this... Lazy, unprofessional garbage = Fox News.

C'mon man, your boy luther has repeatedly said he doesn't know what SJW meant. Had to look it up even. And he IS one.

However, not everybody GAS about the NFL. I'll bet if you asked my wife to name one player in the NFL she would say Peyton Manning. So I think it perfectly believable that some young intern could be looking through thousands of pictures and found that one and called it a day. Is that an excuse? Nope. But I can see how it could happen.

I think it’s that and it is Trump fatigue. I’m not a huge Trump guy, but people are worn out from the anti-Trump daily reports that have been going on since November 2016.

I didn't vote for him, and don't care much for him. However, the more obvious the witch hunt has become, I've found myself pulling for him, and laughing every time the left tries something else to "get him" with.

Yeah I might get to 3 or 4 if I cared enough to think about it. I can guarantee you that I couldn't name a single player playing in the finals other than Lebron or Curry. Of course from the way it sounds, Cleveland doesn't have any other players to begin with.

What is interesting to me is that he doesn't see it as arrogant. He sees it as 'enlightened', or that he is a 'deep or critical thinker'. Frightening really because people like him gravitate toward the indoctrination of youth.

I’m the same way. Trump has made the Left even crazier than I thought they were.

The Left thinks that all the people who voted against them are racist rednecks. They are not. The people supporting Trump are not necessarily supporting Trump, but going against all the crazy people against him. I cannot stand what the voice of the Left has become... A bunch of SJW losers who have to be offended by every little thing that they think can be misconstrued. People are tired of that. You aren’t being progressive, you’re being a pu$$y.

Its the main reason Dimocrats lost the house, senate and presidency but they have not lowered their arrogance level 1 notch. Hopefully they will stay blinded by hate through the next 2 elections. Trump uses the tweet to keep himself in the headlines making sure its Trump. Trump, Trump 24/7. The media is so incensed they are gouging huge holes in their boat.

Per NFLPA: "Our union is disappointed in the decision by the White House to disinvite players from the Philadelphia Eagles from being recognized and celebrated by all Americans for their accomplishment. This decision by the White house has led to the cancellation of several player-led community service events for young people in the Washington D.C area."



Wow. Big heros......
