Fox News Meltdown
The party of personal responsibility blames the mainstream media, Hurricane Sandy and the Obama smear machine for Mitt Romney's loss.

Well you really can't say Sandy didn't make the president look good. It could have been the deciding factor in some undecided voters. Smear campaigns are common place on both sides.

In the time of kings, only the fool could hold a monarch's feet to the fire. It is no different today, of course it's sad that our news organizations have chosen sides instead of stating the facts, which makes the "fake news" more accurate than the real stuff.

THIS IS SO TRUE.

Even though they too are bias, they cannot be censored due to the freedom of speech and artistic expression, comedians get away with saying a lot more 'truth' and opinions.

And it is clear that the Daily show and even the Colbert show are pro-Obama programs, so they too are "part of the media" in supporting Obama.

Yep, and hence the Daily show is where I get my news. It just gives a much clearer picture of reality. And its entertaining too. LOL

I dont agree at all. I actually think they both poke at both parties fairly equally, although stewart is more anti FOX than anything political.

I dont think either pundit makes it clear who they personally support but their 'character' is portrayed as leaning democratic on the daily show and leaning republican on colbert report,,,,

Of course they poke fun at both, but they are clearly mostly pro Obama.
The Daily show is clearly democratic, and the Colbert show pretends to be radical republican but they do so using reverse psychology to poke fun at republicans and to demonstrate how radical conservatives look stupid and ridiculous.

They are both pro democrat. They are hilarious.

If you can't see that, you need to pay closer attention.

If President Obama would give them more fodder, like dimwit (Bush) used to do, they would be using him to make fun of too. The fodder seems to be ripe and plentiful on the right wing side.

they have made fun of Obama plenty too

the you didnt build that statement
the hope and change platform
the use of drones,,,etc,,

I just think it SEEMS they are pro dem because they so regularly and brilliantly belittle FOX news which is so overwhelmingly pro republican,,, but Fox gives all comedians such good material,, who can blame them

Personal responsibility and Liberal are contradicting terms.
