In a stunning upset, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor lost the GOP Virginia primary Tuesday night to Dave Brat, an economics professor and political novice.

The Associated Press called the race for Cantor about an hour after polls closed at 7 p.m. ET.

the people who watch fox news think it's the most trustworthy.

The ones who don't, don't watch it.

It doesn't matter that republicans and conservatives watch it. They're the choir.

Everybody else is watching something else.

"most trustworthy".

That's why Fox "news"' won. It's watched by faithful Beckerhead teabag lemmings. They DO trust it. Completely.

ON the other hand, MSNBC was owned by a war profiteer, fires liberals, allows republicons to lie at will, and is now owned by ComCast. Liberals DON'T trust it all that much. Even the liberal hosts on it have boundaries. Those individuals might be trustworthy, but the network itself is no more trustworthy than the rest of the corporate media.

I agree. My local fox affiliate is pretty good and neutral, so we all close eyes when they have to run the national feed.

I wouldn't believe a fucking thing they report. Like Fox "News", the Brookings Institution serves as a mechanism to misinform.
