Obama just doesn't understand why all media people don't get tingles up their legs like Chris Mathews does
All the leftist media type? You referring to the liberal media?

Based on your statement I can assume one of two things; you either think the media is right leaning or you think they are left leaning and President Obama is too far to the right.

So which is it?

Bro, where do you get your news? LMFAO

In 2003, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) rejected a Canadian Cable Telecommunications Association (CCTA) application to bring Fox News to Canada due to concerns that Fox News U.S. and the Global Television Network were planning to create a combined American-Canadian news network. In 2004, after a Fox News U.S. executive said there were no plans to create a combined channel, the CRTC approved an application to bring Fox News to Canada.[SUP][94][/SUP]
Fox News Channel is currently[SUP][when?][/SUP] offered by Access Communications, Bell TV, Cogeco, Eastlink, Manitoba Telecom Services, Rogers Cable
28 pages and hey still won't read what beenthere posted. I'll try it again in RED this time. Only after Fox agreed NOT to open a Fox news channel in Canada, only then were they allowed to broadcast American generated news. There is NO faux news channel in Canada....why? ....because Canada has a law against broadcasting lies.............

What about the lie during the 2012 presidential election that Romney was ahead in the polls?

Or was that just "inaccurate polling"?

What about the lie that Marijuana kills people or that it causes people to become violent?

Romney did lead in some poles at one time or another, not a lie on its face.

If you provided a link to the allegation, then it would have more backbone. Then again, people have consumed marijuana prior to committing violent acts, so who is to say that that is a lie?

Obviously you didn't read the Snopes .com citation where it clearly points out that it has nothing to do with a law about broadcasting lies, the reason Fox News is not able to be produced in Canada is because they have laws regarding foreign ownership of broadcast media.

I highlighted the citation below in red since you like that color, read it carefully, because it blows your left wing boogie man theory all to hell.


And here's the truth that puts your misinformed ass to bed.

Origins:Since at least 2011, rumors have circulated claiming the Fox News television channel has been banned in Canada due to its running afoul of Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) prohibitions which make it "illegal to broadcast lies and label it news."

Fox Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch was rebuffed in his efforts to establish Fox News Canada in 2003 due to Canadian laws regarding foreign ownership of print and broadcast media, but the CRTC approved an application to bring the Fox News Channel to Canadian digital television line-ups back in November 2004, and that channel is now carried by dozens of different digital providers throughout Canada.
