[edit] American Allies

G'day Fox & Friends,

I view your show from Australia when possible and was most upset when on the 7th of October you had someone cliaming that the only allies agianst terrorism to the USA was the UK. While it was breefly mentioned that their were many other allies, the gentlman that made the origonal statement commented that he was refering to any country that had more than 20 soilders.

As a proud Australian I found this very offensive and am sure that the many Australian soilders serving our country in the fight aginst terrorism in Iraq & Afganistan would also be offended.

Australia has many other millitary commintments at the moment such as peace keeping in East Timor. I hope that in the future we can all apreciate each others support nomatter what the size of our armed forces might be.

Buddy!

[edit] BIAS

I can't believe there is no mention of bias in this article. This show has a very strong right wing bias, which surprises me because most morning shows aren't generally too political in nature. However every time I turn on the TV in the morning and scan across fox & friends, I hear normal morning talk morph into "If Democrats win the terrorists will take over the world" type nonsense. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.33.75.18125 October 2006 (talk)

Maybe it's because one man's bias is another man's "fair and balanced." Realkyhick 11:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Nonsense? We'll wait and see.Lestrade 13:11, 4 December 2006 (UTC)Lestrade

Where's the BIAS topic on the Today Show page? Or the CBS Morning Show page?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.150.72.64 (talk • contribs).

In all respects, FNC is pointed towards more often than the main networks for bias. Chris (Talk) (Contribs) 14:21, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Silly String and Geraldo's map in the sand??

Folks, I know a lot of you don't Like Fox News because you believe it's biased toward the right wing, just as many people believe their competitors are biased toward the left wing. But to say the show's demonstration of how allied forces in Iraq use Silly String to detect trip wires for IED's is "reminiscent" of Geraldo Rivera's "map in the sand" incident is really stretching things. I took the paragraph out of the Trivia section. Realkyhick 11:51, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

That's fine, however, the infamous "sand map" left a few low level military commanders annoyed with Geraldo. It wasn't that we knew what was going on but that those familiar with the area might get a clue. I have been in the military and I will tell you now we get a little touchy about that "as it happens" troop movement reporting. To be fair (and balanced) the commanders let it go once they realized that we had knocked out Iraq's electricity.--Art8641 15:56, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
