Re: a waste

Maybe it's just me but whenever I see 'Foxnews' as any kind of reference for information I can't take it seriously.

'The Pew study found 15 percent of all Americans have neither a cell phone nor an Internet connection. Another 15 percent use some technology and are satisfied with what it currently does for them, while 11 percent use it intermittently and find connectivity annoying.'

'The telephone study of 4,001 U.S. adults, including 2,822 Internet users, was conducted Feb. 15 to April 6, 2006, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.'

Why is it I fail to see this as accurate? Even my 80 yr old grandparents have cell phones and use the Internet. I can't say I know a single person personally who does not use either on a regular basis, whether by choice or necessity.

Fear not! There are many people who feel the same way about SeeBS News, ABC, [MS|C]NBC, the New York Times, the Washington Compost, NPR and the like.

Yes, especially since it's an Associated Press article.

Yes but when you need those republican talking points there is no better source than good old FOX news.

So then by that notion Fox then published every AP release ever? Yes I know it's an AP article, that has no bearing.
