sees_all1 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Americans don't even know what left is. Democrats are centre-right, while republicans are hard right to extreme right. Come to Canada, and you'd go insane.When talking about American news organizations and their biases, you'd typically use an American scale. I could take a Chinese view and call you all a bunch of right-wingers, but that doesn't help the discussion. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspeeder Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Americans don't even know what left is. Democrats are centre-right, while republicans are hard right to extreme right. Come to Canada, and you'd go insane.When talking about American news organizations and their biases, you'd typically use an American scale. I could take a Chinese view and call you all a bunch of right-wingers, but that doesn't help the discussion.Either way, taking other American media organizations like The Daily Show or the Huffington Post as fairly left-wing you cannot call Fox liberal with a straight face. EDIT: And you know what, another reporter from the US News and World Report wrote a report about another book written by professors about the conservative bias in much of the mainstream media. In short reporters were sick of being accused of having a liberal bias so they consistently give /gave more leeway to conservative politicians. http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22 99 Necromancy since 11/22/25 Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 33 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 10 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h3art Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 When talking about American news organizations and their biases, you'd typically use an American scale. I could take a Chinese view and call you all a bunch of right-wingers, but that doesn't help the discussion. However, when discussing the merits of various economic systems, it's done so in a global, historic context. So - yeah, your scale is so skewed as to be unreadable. :rolleyes: I found a panda and then we bought malt liquor. I hold my malt liquor better than a panda. And I thought my weekends were good. ._.

Dheginsea Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Just felt like showing this video, watch the whole thing through. http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-june-21-2011/fox-news-false-statements I once met a man named Jesus at a Home Depot. Is this the Messiah returned at last? And i once beat someone named Jesus in a chess game. Does that mean I'm smarter than the messiah?BOW TO THE NEW MESSIAH Maybe a president who didn't believe our soldiers were going to heaven, might be a little less willing to get them killed. ~ Bill MaherBarrows drops: 2 Karil's Coifs (on double drop day) 92,150th person to 99 defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
