Does the US public want to be misinformed?

US media watchdog Media Matters has declared Fox’s Glenn Beck the Misinformer of the Year. However, Fox’s ratings have gone up as CNN’s have declined. What does this say about the state of TV news in the US. Is information being sacrificed for entertainment?

    it says one of possible 2 things.
    1: people don’t take the time to check out what Glenn beck and others like him are saying

    2; that what Glenn Beck and others are saying is hitting too close to home and those targeted can’t or refuse to defend themselves, instead send out the uber liberal media outlets to let Glenn Beck & others have it. So which is it uber liberal media outlets ?? Which is it ? and in closing, remember that the freedoms you now and have enjoyed in your life aren’t free…someone along the way had to pay for them..how much are you willing to pay to keep them so others growing up behind you can have them too ?? excuse me…I can’t hear you ?

    It is obvious what is going on with the media and the left liberal. They are locked into a marriage and when they get challanged by real factual truths, they become defensive and the only recourse they apply is name calling, much like 3rd grade kids. They still live in the “rank out” mentallity of the 50s. No wonder their ratings are falling through the floor. Hey main street media, THERE IS NO DEFENSE AGAINST HONEST TRUTH.

    OH YEAH MAIN STREET MEDIA, TO ANSWER THE QUESTION “DOES THE US PUBLIC WANT TO BE MISINFORMED?” THE ANSWER IS NO. THAT IS WHY YOUR RATINGS ARE IN THE TANK AND FOX IS FAR OUT IN FRONT. MOST OF US ARE SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR LIES AND SLANDEROUS MUD THROWING.
