Ex-Christian Coalition leader Reed says he watches only Fox News

[question everything]

This may be old, but I find it interesting, and could not find it, so apologies if a dupe:


RENO, Nev. (AP) -- Stumping for President Bush, the former head of the Christian Coalition told Nevada Republicans he can't remember the last time he watched a television newscast on CBS, NBC or ABC.

Now a regional chairman for the Bush-Cheney campaign, Ralph Reed said he depends on the Internet, conservative talk show hosts and the Fox News network to get his information about the world.

But I like this letter

Ralph Reed shows his ignorance

I rarely call a man a fool or say that he's ignorant, but Ralph Reed takes the cake.

The May 3 article quoting Ralph Reed about the fact that he only "watches Fox News" shows just how ignorant he is.

Fox News, or as many of us call it, "Faux News," acknowledges that it gives more opinions than news, with a right-wing flair that cares little about truth or objective facts on the Middle East or on American politics.

Actually, as a former professor of mass communications, it's a shame that Fox is allowed to continue with its license considering how much hate and misinformation it continues dishing out.

That he refuses to watch BBC News or any other American network news is not a matter he should take pride in; it but shows his limitations and his desire to stay limited in his outlook.

Well, Ralph Reed has shown us why no intelligent person should listen to him or those who follow him if he's as limited as he admits.

9. What happened to CBN?

Perhaps he hasn't purchased enough of the "holy water" Robertson was selling.

I'm surprised that he watches only Fox News. I guess he has no further use for the "700 Club" or the Christian Broadcasting Network.

He would be such a disappointment to his mentor, Pat Robertson.

Watching only Fox News? Come on Mr. Reed, throw a bone to your former employer at the "700 Club" and admit the truth. Or perhaps you are too ashamed to admit that you get much of your news from "religious" programming. I thought Pat would have taught you better than that.
