I remind you of what you said (without presenting anything to support your argument)...

"You people do know there is some SANE conservative news sources out there, legitimate conservative news sources, the ones that try to avoid spreading conspiracy theories and lies."

I merely asked you to provide an example of what YOU consider "sane...legitimate conservative news sources". Based on your responses since then, I'm beginning to think you know that the source or sources you might cite would turn out to be laughable. But, by all means, I'm willing to listen. And yes, I will research to see if you actually have a point. But I think it's more likely that...

You do know that "responses" is plural right? Meaning more than one.

I'm just like 2q4u - incapable of determining just what a sane conservative news source might me. I'd really be interested in your list of these places. OAN maybe?

I watch OAN, never Fox.
I get notices from lots of political sites.
And I get a lot of news and perspective right here on OPP.
For cable news, One America News Network is by far the best.

I don't watch Fox for News much anymore. It's slowly being dismantled (Donna Brazile? Seriously?) But I need me some Gutfeld every week or I get cranky.

Mikeyavelli wrote:

Gutfeld is good and so are a bunch of others, but the owners are anti Trump international l*****ts and slowly they are turning Fox into a lefty organization.

As for your comment, "I'm beginning to think you know that the source or sources you might cite would turn out to be laughable.", "laughable" is in the eye of the beholder, to me, laughable is lies, disinformation, propaganda and conspiracy theory, for those like you, it would seem that t***h and facts are "laughable" to you. If that is truly the case then I don't "think" my picks for decent right side coverage are laughable in your eyes, I KNOW they are.

If anyone is truly interested in actual t***h, they can do their own research, fact check stories they find on prospective sites, if they feel they can trust already established fact checking sites, they can see what they have to say about the sites, I still recommend doing some of your own fact checking to be certain though. You can even start off by fact checking the fact checks/fact checkers.

For those trolls just looking to troll people who ARE concerned about t***h and facts, get a life you useless waste of space.

You mean better than Fox News.
Steady, deadpan facts. Fast and factual. And their musical segues are very good.

Bless your heart. I stand corrected - I meant to say "response", but instead, this "useless waste of space" used "responses". Mea culpa! Ya' got me!

Let's try this just 1 last time.

You said, "You people do know there is some SANE conservative news sources out there, legitimate conservative news sources, the ones that try to avoid spreading conspiracy theories and lies."

I asked for an example or 2, and off the rails it went. I'd truly like to hear of something that fits your definition of a sane, legitimate, conservative news source. I'm always digging to find new sources of information.

Drudge? The Blaze? Breitbart? Newsmax? Townhall? The Daily Wire? The Daily Caller? Red State? The Gateway Pundit? National Review? American Thinker? Michael Savage? Dennis Prager? Mark Levin? Red State? Louder With Crowder? TRU Reporting? Great Awakening? Judicial Watch? Project Veritas?

I doubt any of those meet your criteria.

And you're too parsimonious to share anything - so I guess I'm calling your original premise bolshoi! Feel free to prove me wrong.

I think you may have hit on something here. Why don't you throw down and we'll let the OPP denizens v**e on it. Name your top 3 sane, legitimate, conservative news sources and we'll let you know whether you've got a point.

More likely, you know you've painted yourself into a corner and your bluster is all you've got left.

I watch them both, but sometimes take a vacation from ANY news. Never watch CNN or MSNBC-if they are not actually making up the news, they certainly do not tell the whole story, omitting what does not fit the narrative they are pushing-not news or journalism, but opinion and propaganda-Fox News does that to some extent, but usually only in those panel shows, where they have the token liberal included, and then the panelists talk over each other, interrupt, and simply show how rude they can be. I suspect that you must be discerning about what you listen to and believe, though most of the candidates for 2020 on the Dem side are pretty clear about what they want to do-which makes me absolutely sure I cannot v**e for any of them so far. Perhaps they will come up with a strong candidate who loves this country and actually wants to see it succeed-that person I could v**e for, though I would not necessarily agree with everything. I am waiting.

I prefer to read my news though I do watch some news on T.V., NEVER on cable, even though I DO have cable T.V.. They DO go more in-depth on their reporting on the cable channels, but much of it is opinion, I prefer to make up my own mind. Fox news, the regular Fox over the air broadcasts, did report on the "birther" conspiracy theory and reported on it as though it were news. I have even been known to watch my news on Fox even.

As for the candidates, I haven't paid much attention to them as yet. I am registered as unaffiliated and therefore will NOT be able to v**e in the primaries so it makes little sense to me to bother doing due diligence on any of the candidates until the field is narrowed to those that will be on the ticket. This way I don't get my hopes up on someone that won't be on the ticket. Also, by the time the field narrows, the candidates will have their campaign promises figured out and there will be much data available on where they stand on many of the key issues. It just makes more sense to me to do it my way and limits how many I have to look into.

The kommiecrat platform is all the same, it's just a matter of who delivers it the best.
You will see Buttgagag make some of that crap sound downright sensible, but it's still the kommiecrat platform. Buttgagag talks center left, and will govern far left.

I listen to and read several sources from the left, right, and middle. All have valid arguments sometimes and BS sometimes. That's why you have to read with a critical eye, weigh the evidence for or against, and think for yourself.

That and I avoid extreme right and extreme left news.

The extremes are pulling the country apart in opposite directions and leave no room for compromise and prevent working on common goals. They care more about obtaining power and too much power is concentrated in the hands of the government.

True, and I love the quote from Henry Ford. I may use that in discussions I have with my very left leaning relatives. There are, I think, some words of caution and wisdom from the framers of the Constitution-I know I looked them up a couple of years ago and discussed them with friends and family, as well as a rather heated debate on Facebook-something I now avoid except for movie revues that some followers have said they liked-so I continue that-otherwise, nothing of value on FB. I do like it here-for the most part, people are very civil and respectful, though they may disagree vehemently. If only the rest of the country could do that. They might discover that just because we disagree on policy does not make anyone a monster, Hitler, or anti American.

It's too bad Ford was anti-semitic. He also did a lot of business with the N**I regime before America declared war on Germany. No one is perfect unless they are a l*****t Democrat, and even then only in the eyes of other l*****ts Democrats.

And so it goes. These days we have Biden and his son, H****r, doing business in, making tons of money from, and cozying up to the Chinese-"they are not our competition-they are nice folks". Those in power will sleep with the devil to remain in power. Nothing new under the sun!

I don't think there is one... Any that try and claim they represent conservatism fairly only support the Romney/McT*****r/McConnell rhino themed 'big govt is the only answer' wimpy moderate kind. None of them are interested in any kind of swamp draining b/c they have been instrumental in creating it...
