Good place for her. Now if only they'd swap FoxNews and BBC Canada in their packages, so I'd have to pay to watch Fox and got BBC Canada free, I'd be happy.
Hey the package you want is exactly the one they give us on the West Coast. I'd swap you gladly.
Doesn't really matter though. I finally got desperate enough to break my personal boycott of Microsoft spy...er...I mean software, and downloaded the MS thing - I think it's called silverlight - necessary to watch Fox News online.
I got two surprises. Turns out Silverlight is no problem at all. No signing up for DRM, or anything. It looks to be just a little codec.
Also Fox news isn't what I thought it was. I only knew it previously from what I'd seen on YouTube, and the interpretation of the vocal Fox haters online. Now that I've seen the whole thing, I don't get what the fuss is all about. Really the only thing that's maybe bitchable is Glenn Beck's shtick (and personally I find that entertaining). There's a couple more right wing flavored pundits with hour shows. So what. It balances out people like Sanchez, King, and Cafferty on CNN, not to mention all the other leftie commentators elsewhere. Greta Van Susstern on Fox seems more or less fair. She kind of equates to Wolf on CNN. I find the actual news portion of Fox news less biased than the crap I was stuck with on CNN, and they cover stuff I wouldn't otherwise see. Also I don't expect to see anything like the 3 solid weeks of homage to a pedophile I was stuck with on CNN after Michael Jackson died.
I never felt qualified to venture an opinion on Fox news before, because I'd never actually seen it. I do now though, now that I've actually seen it. I like it.
Anybody else in the similar dillema of never actually having seen Fox News, yet being stuck with the strong opinion presented as fact forced upon you by those who don't want you attaching credibility to Fox? Would you like to see the network for yourself, and make up your own mind?
