The interesting thing is that it has been launched "sea worthy" as the founder puts it. So you can follow them on twitter to see the site being built as it is being used. Worth checking out. http://hookk.com - http://twitter.com/hookk Very slick.

Try to learn the difference. Fox News has as many news shows as they do opinion. You and your type just want to cherry pick Fox news because of what side their opinions fall. But MSNBC/CNN's angle is ok on their opinion shows because, well, they are along your line of thinking. I have major beefs with ALL the news outlets as they all arent working for the people but for their own ratings/agendas. That's fine and dandy I suppose but im entitled to that opinion like Fox is theirs. There is news and there is opinion. Try to learn the difference.

Fox pioneered hyper partisan news coverage, and MSNBC has now followed suit from the left. However, even MSNBC at least has moderates on the air, like Joe Scarborough(former Republican congressman) mixed in with their Olberman/Maddow liberal nuts. Fox has O'Reilly to mellow out their Glenn Beck/Sean Hannity mix of fear mongering. Beck is a steaming piece of crap, and it was irresponsible of Fox to put him on the air. He was bad enough on CNN. My favorite moment of seeing him was when he had Bob Barr on, talking about Libertarianism. Beck starts talking about how great the concept of small government is, and then he lights in to Barr for supporting decriminalization of marijuana, "I mean, legalizing marijuana? That's just crazy. I used to be an alcoholic, and I know that drugs are dangerous." Exactly why we will never see a Libertarian Republican party again, because of moralist douchebags like Beck being paraded on mainstream television.
