Former FoxNews watchers confession thread

[Truth Warrior]

Indeed

I sometimes watch it for sheer morbid curiosity

"Hmm, I wonder what the the sheeple are being fed today..."

BINGO! EXACTLY!

Thanks!

I started watching Faux Noise in 1997. I was a huge O'Reilly fan (God forgive me) and even spread the word about his show to everyone I could.

I was even a premium member and a frequent poster on his boards until I got kicked off defending Ron Paul back in August - although, I started losing my trust in O'Reilly several months before I got kicked off.

Please forgive me? I am heartily sorry for having offended thee.

I like O'Reilly's articles but I just can't stand his arrogant character on T.V.

 

[Nic4Truth]

haha... yes please forgive me for listening to Hannity on the radio daily while driving to class back when Bush was up for reelection 4 years ago, trying to memorize every word to go up against those very evil "liberals".
(talk about polarization)

I am convinced my parents brainwashed me, but I forgive them, because they were also under the fauxspell. I also ask for forgiveness for my dad, who to this day, still watches Faux and believes the trash that they spew.

I forgive my family members who love faux and are at the clutch of the Murdoch monster claw, and will try to remember this every time they try to pick a fight over what channel is more liberal then the other.

good to see people finally coming around

trying to debate FNC watchers (especially O'Reilly) was like punching a brick wall expecting it to break - I hate all of them

2004 election was a fun time....

I used to love watching O'reilly and some fairly hot blond whose name I cant remember at the moment...but god was I blind. I feel abused, brainwashed and so F-ing naive...This isn't news. Then I watched CNN. Now THAT was the news...right?? WRONG AGAIN!! I would have been much better off getting my news from the fucking Onion.

I am so so sorry, I have had no television for 10yrs+, but i used to go to that web address for what I thought was news. Please forgive me my stupidity and give me the wisdom to ascertain current, past and future events with the true wisdom of this forum.

 

[Grandson of Liberty]

Yeah. Recovering former fox news viewer. Sober 6 months.

 

[RP4Life]

You are all forgiven. The most important part of all this is that you finally DID wake up.

That's all that matters.

Now let us pray that more sleepers are awakened...many, many more.

I watch foxnews as often as I can stand it. "know your enemy"

So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will fight without danger in battles.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself

I stopped watching the very second that the coverage of "Operation: WMD" turned into "Operation: Iraqi Freedom"... and even then I had some fairly liberal friends trying to get me to wake up who had been right all along about the dangerous evil that resides in our government.

 

[FunkBuddha]

I quit about 8 months ago... and I've gotten a few others to quit as well.

 

[Ibtz]

Mea culpa...mea culpa...mea maxima culpa!

 

[familydog]

I've been clean since August!

 

[jacmicwag]

I still watch Hannity now and then to see people make fun of him running from the Paulites (like several people did last night). This is a 100-year war with Fox. Last night at the very end of the broadcast, they aired the part of Paul holding his ear and saying he couldn't hear the question while everyone on stage and in the audience laughed. They pretty much will do anything to belittle both Paul and his supporters - in essence, picking for a fight. I think they forgot the basic rule of running a successful business long ago - don't piss off the customers. Hopefully, the free market will eventually teach them a lesson.

I watched Fox News for several years, until the news about Ron Paul being left out of the NH GOP Presidential Forum.

Last night's reports have only solidified my resolve to boycott fox and their supporters.

 

[angrydragon]

Too bad I've never seen FOXNEWS except on youtube since Dr. Paul began to run for president.
