    Do you believe that Foxnews has been paying people to give them positive reviews?

    The leading news channel in the US has been caught red handed paying people to surf the internet and act as bots, writing positive comments on any website that chooses to speak bad of foxnews and even writing ranting praises for the channel when their has been no negative comment made. What has modern media come to? This is so pathetic. Do you believe that Foxnews has been paying people to give them positive reviews? Or is this just lies?

    Who really knows? The more obvious question is, "Why should we think any major "news" network is honest and upright?"

    It just so happens they are the ones to have been caught. In media as well as politics, LYING is the name of the game.

    Im with CalebSparks, Who knows....It really wouldn't surprise me if it was true. I really don't know who is worse, the media or the politicians, they all lie period.

    Yes, I do, and this is why; those reporting was not one disgruntled employee. There were 4 employees that left and told the story. The author of the book had plenty of sources. But just think for a minute. You have Rupert Murdoch who frankly, has exhibited a great deal of paranoia of his own. Then compound that with what went on in England by his very owned tabloid; News of the World. His 'reporters' were hacking phones along with actually giving phones to individuals that were victims of horrific crime-so they could listen in on their conversations. He sunk that ship rather quickly and saved the golden ones that were lucky enough to earn his favor. Oh, and of course, claimed ignorance of all knowledge even though he runs a tight ship on all his acquisitions. He has a lot of money that has provided a lot of candidates toward his agenda. Fox News is simply an outlet in ascertaining these goals. In retrospect, his paranoia should be taken for granted. He was assuming others were doing exactly what he had done.
