Right, they changed their title to "Friar" and work in the monastery kitchen.

To qualify for a chip you must be delicious and to qualify as a monk you must be bald, also you must be rabies free for both jobs.

I have created this thread for my American friends and well wishers who think O'Reilly and others are credible "journalists" that you can get a centered and factual world view from watching.

The only people that really think that are far left types. But they don't REALLY believe it, they just pretend because they like to get their dander up.

The rest of the world can tell the difference between a "political opinion entertainer" and a "credible journalist".

And, since there are no more 'credible' journalists anymore (they all peddle in opinion), it's even easy to ID the culprits.

It's another source of information, and appears to have a bias. (The right wingers will consider that the understatement of the century).

But they are certainly not the farthest from the truth. I'd put them on the list of sources to be used in trying to get a balanced picture of reality.

Fisking

Quote

Eric S. Raymond, in the Jargon File, defined the term as:

A point-by-point refutation of a blog entry or (especially) news story. A really stylish fisking is witty, logical, sarcastic and ruthlessly factual; flaming or handwaving is considered poor form. Named after Robert Fisk, a British journalist who was a frequent (and deserving) early target of such treatment.

Quote

Fisk's reporting style—openly mixing fact with analysis and criticism of Western government policy—has made him a figure of some controversy.

Sounds about right...
