"Fox News" whiners
Reader comment on item: Al-Jazeera in Al-Canada?

Submitted by radiorocket (Canada), Oct 28, 2009 at 22:33

"...unprecedented concession to broadcast Al-Jazeera has raised eyebrows among those waiting for Fox News in Canada"

If you pay for access to Fox News, you get it. It's as simple as that. Yet, it's as if Canadian goose steppers want it both ways--the unchallenged supremacy of capitalism (pay for what you want) vs. free, universal access to FN (socialized broadcasting).

Honestly, conservatives have become so "Whaa, whaa, whaa--Boo hoo hoo".

Narrow minded whiners pay for FN. Realistic, reflective citizens interested in comprehensive coverage of events pay for AJ-E. Easy-peasy.
