After watching that episode I am glad I don't and won't subscribe to Fox news. They have Rachel Marsden on, so that there shows no credibility.

That Rachel Marsden is a very questionable person. Actually she is sick in the head and should of been thrown in Jail for what she did, especially the stalking, harassing and false allegation parts. She caused undo hardship for no reason to that SFU swim coach.

But after seeing who is on "Fox News" she just fits right in. I wish her 15 minutes were up.

Plus Fox News is "W's" mouthpiece.

I watched that CBC show and never have I been so pissed off. What Ann Coulter said about Canada sending troops to vietnam further showcases what an idiot she is. And Bill does need a punch to the head. Canada is in danger of our media becoming more right wing. Too many big companies own what little we have and wish to manipulate the media for their own benifits. I feel bad for Americans. I'm suprised that kid who lost his dad in the trade center didn't punch that shit head in the teeth.

The kid should have whacked O'Reilly with a chair. I would have.

They just had a short segment on CBC on reation to the show. O'Reilly is pissed right off. He's on the warpath. Apparently he didn't like being called a liar. Know what? If he didn't lie constantly people wouldn't call him that.

Al Franken was talking about it on Air America today too. Al thought it was great, although he hadn't seen the entire show, just read the transcript.

Fifth Estate is being repeated on NewsWorld at 7pm Eastern on Sunday.

BBC has a great "Panorama" show about Iraq tomorrow. The reporter "Simpson" who was wounded while in Iraq, is quite familiar with Iraq because he has been there for years and years.

If you don't have access to BBC, I could help you out with a small program which allows you to watch these channels over the net.
Just private message me and ask.

I don't get upset about Fox News.
It is just entertainment. Just like Jerry Springer and The Boys.

He gets paid to be outrageous.
It's just entertainment

I've never watched Fox news or Bill, but did see the fifth estate piece. Yeah I was really appalled too.

Yeah sure Bill is paid to be outrageous, no doubt, but unlike Jerry Springer, I think alot more people take Fox News to be factual news rather just entertainment.

I watch CTV newsnet a bit, and I get rather disgusted at some of the stuff thier starting to feature. I see them starting to follow some of the american news crap as well. (I just don't care about Micheal Jackson's day in court) Hail Peter Mansbridge!
