Is watching Fox News a requirement for posting questions on Y!A?

Nope, but I see your point - and only recently began to realize that a lot of the talking points against Republicans and for Obama were coming straight from Olbermann & Matthews.

Are you watching Fox News while monitoring the topic trends or are you simply throwing mud?

Not a requirement but if you want the truth and become more educated its a good Idea.

No - it's simply that, for some people, repeating what they just heard on Fox News (or Rush Limbaugh, or WorldNetDaily) is what passes for an intelligent discussion.

Hmm...I think it's mainly because a lot of people aren't exactly sure yet how to think for themselves so they look to the media to form "their own opinions". Hence all the liberals..

you mean like THIS question?

no, you don't have to watch fox to realize that something stinks in washington. you just need to read, pay attention and have a semi-functioning brain.

Apparently yes. Most of the questions even use the same terminology and the same strange logic.

Only if you want to be armed with a lot of the truth.

No, But you would never know it from some of the posts.
