Was at a customers house today, he had on MSNBC

He was in his late 70's. He commented that this was the most left winged station on TV. Then he asked if I ever watch that station, I told him I don't have cable. He then told me that fox is in the middle and no one watches CNN. I wanted to argue with him, but working at his house the customer is always right. I quiclky changed the subject. I just couldn't believe that fox viewers see them as nuetral. It's a very scary thought, especially when you have people on the air (glen beck) who do everything just short of calling for violence.

I know you couldn't say anything because he is a customer..I'd be biting my lip off. Ouch.

One makes a great case supported by facts.

The other throws dung on the wall.

Some folks just don't want to accept the truth.
