James von Brunn was a rabid racist for most of his life.<br /><br />Blaming right-wing radio and news is, to me, as foolish as trying to blame an act of violence as being incited by a violent movie, video game, or music. It creates a fictional scapegoat instead of placing the responsibility where it belongs; the monsters who carried out these horrible murders.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692772755820877790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-90557309420117161702009-06-16T11:27:04.814-07:002009-06-16T11:27:04.814-07:00college professor of some high-minded socialogical...<i>college professor of some high-minded socialogical something-or-other, and he's an even bigger sports fan than am I.</i><br /><br />Another example:<br /><a href="http://mat.tepper.cmu.edu/blog/?p=710" rel="nofollow">Carnegie Mellon</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-9114652872807051052009-06-16T08:20:03.806-07:002009-06-16T08:20:03.806-07:00@ Josh Blonz...

Amazing.<br /><br />@ Doug Nicodemus...<br />I remember being surprised to find out Woody Allen was an athlete, too. He still swims regularly, I think.<br /><br />About Fox vs. MSNBC...<br />I agree with Nowax, their is a difference in tone with these two stations. Fox uses threatening language that incites kooks to violence. More importantly, MSNBC shows do not lie about facts, or claim to be "fair and balanced." Fox gets caught lying daily, all the while claiming to be a balanced news station, rather than the propaganda wing of the GOP that they are. Regardless of your politics, there is a level of deliberate dishonesty in Fox that <br />isn't found anywhere else in TV news.Pirarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02340738828876740970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-84836984864466457462009-06-16T08:18:56.548-07:002009-06-16T08:18:56.548-07:00Nowax: you completely misinterpreted what I said. ...Nowax: you completely misinterpreted what I said. I don't watch FOX, and I already said it was biased. But yes, in my opinion, the other news sources are just as biased, and I think you won't see that because they cater to your political ideology.<br /><br />Maybe I'm wrong, though, and maybe you think I'm viewing this from some libertarian fantasy-land where there is no difference between the left-wing and the right-wing.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692772755820877790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-39837986545040240312009-06-16T08:03:36.640-07:002009-06-16T08:03:36.640-07:00Hey Dan,

Yes, MSNBC is left-wing biased, but they don't even come close to the crazy, horrible, nastiness of Fox. If you can't tell the difference between the two, it probably explains why you actually listen to Fox in the first place. You're an idiot. <br /><br />Sorry to be so blunt, but we have been listening to these hate-mongers -- and yes that's what their chief goal is, to peddle hate -- for so long. Especially Bill O'Reilly, who I hold partly responsible for Dr. Till's murder. And the other senseless murders of late, of left-wing people by crazed right-wing fanatics, has me livid. I am a Unitarian-Universalist. One of our churches was the target of one of these crazy nuts. A nut that was frustrated that he couldn't take out one of the people listed as "bad liberals" in a book by one of Fox News regular nut-case guests, so he went out and shot up a church (during a children's play!) wounding eight and killing two. <br /><br />Give me ONE, one example of any one on the left doing anything remotely like this in the past 10-20-30? years? <br /><br />So when someone on the right has the temerity to try to defend Fox and right-wing radio, and to say that "left-wing" media is just at bad, it just makes me want to vomit.Nowaxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-78366476925316810942009-06-15T17:02:21.481-07:002009-06-15T17:02:21.481-07:00Josh: "...left-leaning stations like MSNBC.&...Josh: "...left-leaning stations like MSNBC." They weren't always "left-leaning" (whatever that means) but they are a bunch of followers who are trying to follow the trend of the nation. O's the pres so they are trying to accommodate the O fans. Previously they were pro Commie (er Bush) and Cheney's comrades. (sorry to burst your bubble, but I am not drinking the Obama Kool-aid either)<br /><br />I just wish there was a news station that just did the (wait and have a seat - yes) just news without any political agenda. Faux proved that being slanted toward a specific political party was profitable and thus... everyone else (CNN, MSNBC, ABC, etc) are trying to tap into the left-wing or right-wing political sided viewers. <br /><br />I guess I am in the minority when I do want the political slant in my news.Waldonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-79276934646148659562009-06-15T16:46:55.612-07:002009-06-15T16:46:55.612-07:00this is one of the best Bizarro's I've eve...this is one of the best Bizarro's I've ever readTeginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17742431049132759905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-10364102974120404392009-06-15T15:51:49.339-07:002009-06-15T15:51:49.339-07:00nah nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh HEY nuh nuh nuh nuh!

Actions by a small number of extremists don't mean everyone in that group has the same beliefs.<br /><br />And again, yes FOX is stoking flames, but the same can be said of left-leaning stations like MSNBC. There's bias and insanity on both sides; the problem is that people are prone to brush over the extremism on their side while they point out that across the spectrum.<br /><br />I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's just how I see it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692772755820877790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-43199493215362496572009-06-15T13:41:30.605-07:002009-06-15T13:41:30.605-07:00ha ha ha... but would Frank pass the drug tests? ...ha ha ha... but would Frank pass the drug tests? "... a bit high on the electrolysis..." ...via the electrical shock during his revival... ah never mind.<br /><br />... but the type of sport that you play is just as important as where you live. For example: I swam in HS (midwest) and collage (CA) but in HS all of us male swimmers were given the nickname of (not joking or using the slang to insult anyone) "swimmer fags". Specifically because of our Speedos (before the full body suits) where as the wrestler (who wore tights and roll around with other sweaty men) were REAL MEN.<br /><br />But take me to CA and we are as popular as the football and basketball team. <br /><br />Go figure...Waldonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803930806872297256.post-27569892435292410952009-06-15T13:35:14.170-07:002009-06-15T13:35:14.170-07:00You forgot the quotes in Fox "News."You forgot the quotes in Fox "News."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
