Lt. Col. Ralph Peters says he's 'ashamed' of Fox News and leaves his role as analyst

I watch Fox. I'm not complaining about it - I said I'm fine w/ a conservative network. My comment was more that I thought it funny that you tried to portray them as the only "factual" network. It's a conservative network, and they're biased.

Yes, funny that way.....A conservative network that is biased toward the truth.;)

It's interesting w/ Fox. I thought Ailes really set the tone there - when he left, I was fairly sure that they'd become more of a solid, middle-of-the-road news network.

They have actually gone more right-wing. This guy was right; it is a propaganda network now. I tune in, and it's just about covering for Trump, every minute.

I don't get the big deal. Let him saddle up with msm left wing propaganda machine. There's certainly enough of them. ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, Twitter and Facebook bots. FOX is the only one presenting any facts. What's the left want anyway? No room for just ONE opposite presentation? Only swamp-controlled media allowed in America?

You were just kidding there, right.

Good one, Stretch. I laughed out loud.

It's being reported that this hit Fox like a "bombshell."

Hannity called him clueless, and Ingraham said he was "inconsiderate and inaccurate." Poor things; the truth hurts. Both are textbook shills for Trump.

you should have seen what Tucker carlson did to him...it left Peters shaking with anger. He was on an anti-Russian rant and Carlson told him he was a neocon like MaxBoot

curious..do the talk about FISA abuse,unmaskings, the corrupt FBI leadership?
All I ever see is "Russia Russia Russia" on CNN

I'm okay w/ a conservative network - but why are you trying to portray them as the "only one" presenting any facts? They're as biased as MSNBC - just in the other direction.

It's funny that you try to portray them as objective.

Why would you think anyone would be portraying any Fox News commentators as objective? They are all conservatives, and they don’t hide it. Everything not hard news or weather on that network is EDITORIAL, and has a conservative bent. Peters has a right to his opinion and so do the people that watch Fox News
 
And they make shit up while putting conspiracy theories on. Studies show that people who watch Fox Gnus actually are less informed than those who watch none. Fox is shoveling right wing propaganda all day long.They are not trying to inform, but to sway.

not exactly a newsflash -you got lots of hate to Russia and the south

I meant that more collectively. I have never held Russia in contempt the way I do Germany and the south, for some reason. It nevertheless remains a country that we are in an intense rivalry with, and a competitor that it is necessary for the West to overcome.

Fox is 100% onboard w/ your phony "deep state" narrative. They talk about the deep state like it's hard news.

i was being specific. you know the FISA applications, corrupt FBI leadership -unmasking by Powers where she doesn't even claim to have done it..things like corruption and abuse of power

I see them talk about the "corrupt FBI" all the time. They're all in on the usual Trump-apologist narratives, no matter what they are.

Is that what you're asking? Fox is Trump's network, through & through.
