Bill Maher on cable news

Well nothing has changed at my job... so whos case are we going to say is the rule of thumb.... ?

fox, vindicated...? I am laughing right now. You obviously dont care what the truth is lol

in yours

You are in the bubble

doesnt exist

where did you get this 1% statistic? Not saying you are wrong, I just want to know the source

How in the fuck is anything he said on here a lie?

This video is about as spot on a video as I've ever heard regarding American cable news.

applause

This video DOES have a point - early on when Bill talks about us suffering because we don't have to listen to views on the other side etc. He is WAY off base when he gets to the criticism of conservatives and Fox. He is ESPECIALLY off base and BLIND when he gets into the fact checking issues. It was FOX news who were supposedly wrong (according to the "fact" checkers) about you not being able to keep your insurance etc.Yet it is now being PROVEN that it was MSNBC and the LEFT who lied.

The part about the fact checking and his characterization regarding Fox vs the Left wing media. Of course if YOUR only source of information are those sources that seek to re-create their monopoly on the news that people see, you WOULD get such a biased view of Fox. Take Maher's point about expanding your sourcing to heart. You might find you have been lied to about the right.

Good catch, Constitutionally Speaking. That's one for your point of view... versus how many hundreds for the opposite view?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. As for loosing one's insurance, it's only lost if it is not adequate to begin with.

Jesus, what can't you morons spell????

Did you not hear him; he said it was true on the left too. It's just Fox News lies more.

CNN plays down the middle? LMAO!! MSNBC lies less lol Fox lies more LOL They ALL lie get it! Picking sides on who lies more or less is ludicrous!! Mahre is the biggest bull$hitter of all. He tops Limbaugh, Hannity, Matthews, and Maddow COMBINED!! They ALL LIE and there's no difference in the amount (except if you want to agree with the lie...lol), and as for "CNN playing down the middle" what an ass-kiss by Mahre,.they are just MSNBC with seniority because they've been lying longer....lmao!

Oh right, and Ted Turner and the rest doesn't? Give it up idiots they're ALL trying to lead us down the garden path.......

Maybe the Grammar Cop should learn how to punctuate before commenting on others failings..............Jesus! What, can't you morons spell?........that's my way of saying, "shut up stupid".

Not necessarily true.......

Most of it is a lie because he fails to tell the WHOLE TRUTH...........It's an "OPINION" and nothing more.

What doesn't exist, genius?

Most idiots laugh at what they do not understand..........and that's the truth....

Your a real genius aren't you?! (and yes that was sarcasm) Being led down the garden path refers to ALL of us being led to the slaughter (so to speak) but our government and media under the guise, "of know what's better for us".....fools like you don't have a choice or chance to choose. You're sheep being led by virtue of your ignorant blindness to the reality that surrounds you.....

I watch them all, and research many other sources. I I don't let the talking heads and ignorant entertainers like Limbaugh, Matthews, Hannity, Savage, Maddow, and Mahre tell me how or what to think........you feel free to follow your heroes anytime, it's your right to be misinformed. Bad thing is you use the same addled process to vote............

allilupe, Again you missed the point......real deep thinker aren't you.....(not!).....lol You bitch about Rupert Murdock having an agenda as a media outlet owner......Ted Turner is the same and a devout LIBERAL with a bias and agenda, George Soros too for that matter!

He has no problem telling others how ignorant they are if not pandering to his way of thinking though!.Allilupe, you totally missed the point.....that being THEY ALL LIE! BOTH SIDES!!!!! Idiots like you think "your side doesn't" because you want to believe YOU are right about something. FOX lies, CNN lies, MSNBC lies, Limbaugh lies, Matthews lies. Fools like you pick sides and claim, "the other side lies more" and think yourself superior...While diving in the shallow end of the gene pool.

Oh Sure, No Liberal Agenda at NPR..........LMAO......yes folks that was sarcasm.......

So true, just look at as many as you can! Nearly every news outlet leans either left or right to varying degrees. The trick is to find something they both hate and you're getting close to some truth!

No, I watch them all. It's referred to as "research", I do NOT listen to the "entertainers" who pass off their OPINIONS as news....... and yes you are a fool....

I just noticed the commentator is Piers Morgan......no agenda?? lol and Mahre sums himself up perfectly with is final line, "these people do not care what the truth is"......

I wouldn't have a problem with the two of you doing a duet.............two less idiots in the gene pool......

I just love when some ass plays "Grammar Cop"........shut-up stupid........lol

Well, you're starting to get it.........Now if you'd just realize all the news outlets have little bits of the truth buried in all the fertilizer, it just takes research and a bit of skepticism to look under the surface and find the real stuff instead of taking everything they say at "face value" like so many others do.

Gary, so show me and the others where I'm wrong? Other wise you seem to just be babbling.

Wrong about what? Wrong about you all being blind to the fact that the left lies as much as the right? That's the REAL truth! There is ABSOLUTELY no difference in the depth of deception being perpetrated by EITHER side........so just what is it YOU are babbling about?

Fox News, MSNBC, etc. Don't watch any news stations, they spread lies and hate. Do your own research on what goes on in the world.

What is a lie in this video? Please, enlighten me.

Genxy, I've answered this already. You chose to ignore the answer.....whatever. Mahre tells only half the tale in an attempt to make "his side" look better. I was raised to believe a "half truth" is still a lie.......you?

Your answer is pathetic. What is the "lie" in this video? If you listen, he said the left does it too. The degree that Fox does it defies a major amount of fact checking.

Genxy.......the pathetic thing is you think you possess intelligence. I've answered to the extent anyone with an IQ above 3 understood it........enough said.

BTW genxy, making the asinine claim (you, Bill Mahre, and others are trying to make) that "lying less" is somehow acceptable in "reporting news" is the most ludicrous concept I've ever heard! A LIE IS A LIE, IS A LIE!!! .......and what kind of an addled mind quantifies the amount of deception contained in a lie? It's STILL A LIE!!!?!!?? Go back to playing video games your ignorance is annoying.........

I'm not the one in denial. Nice try though. Are you defending Fox because it reaffirms your world view? You seem upset.

My intelligence may likely destroy you. Would you like to keep this going, while projecting your own version of "ignorance" onto others telling you reality? I'm not the one defending these other news stations. I'm just telling you the degree of difference. However, you are very upset about a liberal person calling out your favorite news source for what it is.

Then why are you so mad? What reality am I not seeing? Look at every one of my comments. What redundant ignorance? You aren't making any sense.

Let's see, Rupert Murdoch has duel US-Australian citizenship, and presto he's got a global News Corporation private propaganda empire. This can't be related to the Caspian Sea region having more oil than before Saudi Arabia began pumping it out even before WWII, can it? At $30 a barrel before the Iraq War started, the worth of the oil was estimated to be valued at the well at a trillion dollars. Now the price per barrel is three times that, and everyone in the region wants a piece of the action, including Russia, the EU, and China. Go figure! Big money, big lies to make sure the future money comes where big mining interests and nations want it coming.

Fox News Channel is the worst thing to ever happen to America.

Maher nailed it on this one!

There's news on cable? Since when? The WORST thing that happened to CNN, was when they won an emmy for an election coverage. Now, its 24x7 politics. HEY CNN YOU SUCK! Where's the rest of the news? Flint is NOT the only town in the US that's having drinking water problems. MY GOD! Its the 21st century in the US, and no one's talking about our drinking water issues? FUCKING DRINKING WATER?!

Trump has been the best thing that's happened to the infotainment world since the OJ trial. No matter, the media of the 20th century is nearly dead anyway, so its probably too late for cable news to save itself. In fact, cableTV is everyday nearing obsolescence. Like a rapidly growing number of Americans, I cut the cord last year, and am never looking back. And I'm not even a millennial. That demographic, the future, is already gone from cable.

If anyone of the all-news cable networks could have their choice of an anchor, I’m sure they would choose, one, a streaking blond hair dyed woman with long fake eyelashes, or two, a male without any gray hair. Now, have you looked closely at the appearance of the anchors and reporters you always watch on cable for your daily news delivery. Here is where I would normally ask about their news content, but I won’t, if their spin on the news is to your satisfaction, then I will just urge you to continue with that network, otherwise, you are due for a change or at least a reality check.

Maher is on another level then Phone hacker Morgan.
