I saw in a thread that was locked about Terri Schiavo dying, the link was from newsmax ( http://newsmax.com/archives/articles/2005/3/31/100643.shtml ) ok, some people read it no problem, but right there smack in the middle of the page was an ad that said "WARNING! CRAZY Left-Wing Liberals Don't Want You To See This Unusual Website... How to make $300,000.00 or more per year investing in real estate part time, with no money, no risk, and no previous experiance!" (http://newsmax.com/images/banners_275x150/banner.GIF)

How charming, an ad for someone scamming the poor poor readers and obviosly directing it at the poor poor target group who reads newsmax.

Out of interest I clicked the ad and it brought me to this page http://www.jasonjuliano.com/newsmax/freecourse.htm

Dear Friend,

The crazed left-wing "tree hugging" liberals don't want you to be rich! They want you to believe that if you make a buck, some else loses. If making money offends you, then stop reading right now - because that's what this free course is about.

Frankly, I'm not one of those "money is the root of all evil" liberals. I'm not a Birkenstock wearing hippy that lives in a grass hut. I think money is important in life. It's what feeds your family, puts a roof over your head, and money is also what buys you luxuries and freedom in life!

More charm from mr scam guy.

So some might say to this "but this is only an ad, anyone can buy an ad to advertise their product/services". Sure thats right, but if anyone wants to be taken seriously expecialy for a news org then YOU DONT ADVERTISE SOMETHING YOU EXPECT TO SEE TRASHED BY YOUR SPAM FILTER!

Can't suppress free speech unless you want all news outlets to be shut down.

I do agree that Newsmax is the conservative equivilent of the mainstream media.

It has the same traits as the mainstream media. It has an agenda, one-sided, sensational, etc.

What is funny, is that some will watch CNN, ABC, CBS, etc. and think it is truth incarnate.

 

[ValuedCustomer]

yes! here here! ban them! ban then all! - more group-think please!

:roll:

Not quite, I dont remember Fox news running a story with fake memos about Kerry, do you?

Did they run every nights top news story for a month about Abu Grahib?

And lastly did several Fox executives, a couple of producers, and their anchor get booted because of their bias leading to a false story?

It is a good indication of the general bias under the table. If it was a 1 incident issue then I doubt so many would have departed. This isnt the first time Danny rather got himself into trouble and let his Bias show at old cBS.

ok, and fox has again and again shown their bias, so comparing cbs to fox is just

as pure fringe party propaganda then newsmax and democraticunderground compare just fine

Like I said I dont remember Fox having so many scandals and people getting fired.
I dont think the bias at Fox is in the same league as cBS.

when a tree falls in the forest and no one is there, does it make a sound?

 

[piasabird]

Liberals quote plenty of liberal news services. Hmm almost every network source is liberal . . .

wow, it's so incredibly sad that you can't see the slant/mission of FNC

 

[raildogg]

Okay, as long as the radical leftist blogs are also forbidden. Lets have a fair playing field. Why should one side get to have a advantage more than it already has here? Ban Newsmax and also ban the blogs. Keep it fair.

perhaps you forgot the whole "stolen honor" joke that was essentially made up that the entire media ran with the entire campaign.

thats because bias is expected and demanded at fox, not at cbs.
