    I never watch that rubbish. It's just another vehicle for Rupert Murdoch to peddle his views....as is The Sun, The Times, and many other news and media operations he controls.

    I watch skynews regularly, I guess it can be right-wing but only sometimes, for rightwing views I think it is not in the same league as its sister channel Foxnews. The O'Reilly Factor just cracks me up.
    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,
    And wisdom to know the difference.

    Totally agree: but it is hard NOT to watch sky news sometimes. It remains a fact though, whatever your politics, nationality or otherwise:the media is one hell of a powerful tool.

    And let us not forget that "Those" who control the media, ususally control the people that are within their remit.

    I made a mistake, (doesn't happen often)...I wasn't supposed to be talking about Sky News it should have been Fox News ....I'm sorry I said Sky News, they're not too bad...it's Fox who are the right wingers...I'm doomed

    Same owner, my opinion still stands. Murdoch has too much influence in world politics and should be neutered.
