Then, why do you know they sell more than US News And World Report?

Jeff didn't divert from any point. Besides you have no point.

 RS> The fact is, in prime time, people want entertainment.

Really? Where did you get that?

They do? Where did you get that? Back it up.

 RS> Sensationalism sells, as opposed to accuracy.

You have yet to show where Fox News is inaccurate.

 RS> Ed got all huffy saying he had evidence that Rachel Maddow had lied.

I rarely get huffy WRT Rachel Maddow. She's an inveterate liar. Her latest
lies area bout how the Sherrod firing is all Fox News' fault. What she
ignores is that Sherrod was fired before the news cycle on Monday. And, the
only person on Fox to mention it was O'Reily and he came out and apologized
for reacting before doing his research. Of course, so did the NAACP (they
own the actual video of the meeting) and the BHO administration.

 RS> Ed never did back up his claim.

Actually, I did, but you refuse to see it.

 RS> While Keith Olbermann can get a bit too strident at times, looking like an

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!

Keep drinking the cool-aid.

 RS> As opposed to your buddy, Sludge.

Drudge's website is merely a clearinghouse for news from other sources.
