		<description>Take a vote at each Airport &amp; let the vote win....either CNN for the Bleeding heart Liberals &amp; think tank Utopians, like those who constantly protest any ideas but their own. It will be interesting to see how many business travelers vote for CNN.

		<description>You&#039;ve picked an interesting and topical subject.  But your points would be stronger without some of the fluff words--&quot;actual tv&quot;? As opposed to virtual?  The adverb form, &quot;actually&quot;, also says nothing, and wastes one more syllable doing it.   In this respect, CNN and FOX are not so different--they both inculcate us with a Newspeak full of such empty intensifiers.  They are the McDonalds of language, and they are supersizing it without mercy.</description>

If your facility with the English language is indicative of your business acumen, please let us know which tax-paying company that is, Mr. Paone, so that we can be certain not to do business with it.</description>

		<description>After last night&#039;s debate, Fox News ran a viewer survey where 88 percent said McCain won the debate. In the general population polls, it was around 30 percent. They are playing to a defined audience and say &quot;fair and balanced&quot; with a wink. (You betcha!) 

But it&#039;s not going to kill me or anyone else to watch it for a half hour. It&#039;s mostly harmless posturing. I&#039;d vote to turn the TVs off though except the bars that are showing sports, where people have chosen to be there. At a gate you have no choice. Thankfully, most everyone carries their own entertainment now anyway, and earplugs to block out the mostly useless news broadcasts. 

I like another poster&#039;s idea that if we are stuck with the TVs, show the BBC instead. Then at least we&#039;d know what&#039;s going on beyond our borders.</description>

		<description>So now the politically correct professors are whining about Fox News. Boo hoo to them. For years I&#039;ve had the 3 major networks, 2 cable stations, most newspapers and magazines and finally it seams our education system that all lean left telling me how to think, act and live. Frankly I&#039;m tired of these whining lefties. Now I a busines person who travels and works for a tax paying company has to give in to these &quot;educators&quot;. 
Wow, I thought they were on the side of &quot;all views&quot;.</description>

		<description>@The FOX bashers (read: Unapologetic liberals):

It is a known and well documented fact, bolstered by recent studies, that most news broadcasts are presented from a  left-leaning point of view. In cases where this is not  readily apparent from the broadcast presented,  the vast majority of correspondents, and journalists belonging these news organizations, hold these views.Your political views are not supior to other Americans. The right to think, and or believe, as one chooses, is one shared by ALL Americans. As the airport is a public place, all views have a right to be presented, like it or not. Alleged right-wing &quot;bias&quot; or not, in their political reporting, not all news on FOX is political in nature. In fact, the most likely broadcast you would see on FOX (simply due to statistics) in an airport, or CNN for that matter, is a regular news report, headlined stories updates. Little besides style seperates FOX, from CNN, or ABC, or NBC, for that matter, in this reporting. The substance is essentially the same. This of course, requires actual thought and analysis, perhaps asking too much from the &quot;intelligent&quot; liberal views presented above. Get a grip. It&#039;s a public space, that means you don&#039;t get to pick and choose. It seems many would like it both ways. Present the view, just only my view. That is by no stretch, as UN-American as it gets.</description>

		<description>FOX is obviously politically biased. I wouldn&#039;t mind something other than news on those televisions once in awhile.</description>

		<description>I prefer airports that show BBC World. It has more international news, plus you are more likely to get cricket scores.</description>

		<description>We call the news &quot;happy hour&quot; because the news readers always smile and make mindless comments after recounting the lurid details of the day&#039;s accidents and shootings. And we call FOX  the BCN - Bush Cheney Network.</description>
