Have you ever noticed the amount of crap that is on TV all the time concerning Democrats vs Republicans?
I'm British and I live in the UK so I don't usually get to watch a lot of US TV but when I do, I honestly can't believe the pandering that is done by both sides. For the republicans, FOX news is definitely the main offender. I have watched Youtube video after Youtube video all about FOX news and especially that Shrew of woman, the vile, the vicious Ann Coulter. This woman is an idiot. Pure and simple. Generally though, the US media are guilty of doing this sort of thing.
For the Democrats, I would argue that show such as The Colbert Report and the Daily Show sympathize more with the democrats. I should make it clear that I am what is called a floating voter in Britain. That is, I vote for who ever I feel will do the best job at the time of the election. However, I do watch a lot of the shows that have been mentioned and I am constantly taken aback by what it obvious and clear pandering to the audiences for there support.
My question is what do you guys think about the way politicians conduct themselves and also how important do you think the media is in decided the way an election will go? Also, I would very much like this thread to be as anti-Ann Coulter as possible to wire right in.
