    Was there a "Fox News" back in the day?

    I dis-agree....Cronkite's apposed the Vietnam War when he returned from Vietnam on 27 Feb 1968 and made his famous "stalemate in Vietnam" speech. This was at the height of the Tet Offensive of 68. The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong loss during that ill faded offensive was enormous. We finally...

    Was there a "Fox News" back in the day?

    I would think all the talk and investigation surrounding the Vatican during the Hitler Days and then after (ODESSA), Coughlin wasn't doing anything different, although it's been reported the Vatican didn't want to have anything to do with him but, what is expressed on the outside isn't always...

    I stand corrected but CBS wanted that commercial money, if Coughlin would had agreed, would Coughlin had stayed on? After all, he did support Roosevelt ....at first.

    Was there a "Fox News" back in the day?

    I agree, but as far as severity...........depends upon one's political views and party that defines one's animosity for news channels and what they report whether it be truth or not, it might be false to you but total truth to another.

    Music suggestions 20's 30's big band & jazz?

    I have quite a few of CDs and cassettes of the 20s and mostly the 30s and 40s. The very best and complete collection I have and I listen to most often is the four CD set of the These Were Our Songs, the Early 30s and the four CD set of the These Were Our Songs, the Late 30's. These were produced...

    "I don't listen to any talk-radio program because I value my radio too much to be incited into attacking it with a sledgehammer". I enjoy your replies. You have a great way in expressing your thoughts. I think it's called 'wit'.....................:eusa_clap

    Was there a "Fox News" back in the day?

    I take notice what news channel and what reporters/news anchors interview who and report what. I don't listen to or watch any news channels or listen to any reporters/new anchors who urinate down my back and tell me it's raining. I'd say what those channels are and who those news anchors are but...

    News reporting 101 today has to include Drama Classes to include standing in water and hurricane winds and facial expressions. The only ones I have respect for are those who get in and out of war zones. Richard Engle I have a lot of respect for.

    The only news I ever listened to and believed came from Paul Harvey, he always told "the rest of the story". Sad day when he passed. :(

    John Roberts, Catherine Herridge to name a couple. They have many reporters overseas. Like the other national news channels, NBC, CBS, they have their affiliate reporters reporting just like the Local News Channels have national news reporters reporting on local channels.

    Was there a "Fox News" back in the day?

    Love this thread and wealth of information provided by Lizzie. Thanks.............. I can't help to comment though, many of what Lizzie described....hasn't changed. If anything, it has become worse....IMO. But I wasn't around in the 30s and most of the 40s so what do I know.
