    Your intentions were clear, and I made no misrepresentation.
    So when someone says something, rather than answer what they actually say, you feel it's within your rights to ascribe some other meaning to their words, and reply to that instead. Is that it?

    You can't possibly suggest that your comments were not directed personally at me, solely for the purpose of ridicule, just because I get *some* of my news from a different source than you.

    But I guess, I'll play along. So fine, what did you actually say?

    If you keep quoting Fox News like it's some respected source of information, you can expect to be called out on it.
    You said that ^

    Now explain to me how citing a fact, released by an official government agency, and reported accurately, without spin, bias, or partisanship, should result in me 'being called out'. Tell me why posting that link today, was SOOO deserving of your mean-spirited dismissal?

    Dude, take a time out.

    I wasn't calling you out for quoting that specific piece of admittedly factual reporting by Fox. I was laughing that you got it from Fox, and that you seem to rely so heavily (note I didn't say exclusively) on Fox for your news, and that you seem to think it's unbiased (if I understand you correctly inasmuch as you argue that having high ratings makes a source respected and trustworthy). That whole conglomeration of things to me is funny.

    And if you don't like that I don't respect Fox, well all I can say is you're just going to have to deal with it, sorry.

    So anytime I quote Fox, you're allowed to de-rail a thread with petty attacks directed at me?? Fuck off!

    If you disagree with Fox's information or opinion, there's a way to respond to that.

    What you did today, was NOT it.

    Well it generally takes at least two to derail a thread, so I guess my advice is that if you want to stay on topic then just don't respond to the criticism of your precious Fox News.

    You really weren't criticizing fox news. You were attacking ME

    I was laughing that you got it from Fox,

    What's "heavily"? Again, have you kept score enough to tell me what % of links I post are Fox's?

    What's the limit?

    I'm begging you now....tell me what the rules are? Where is the list of poop-approved sources, and what's the cap on the number of times each can be used?

    Why does it matter to you where I get my news? Why even bother making a post to "laugh at me". You admit to posting just to 'laugh at me'. You admit that you made a post for no reason other than to ridicule me. Out of nowhere, for no reason other than the fact htat i get my news from a different place than you.

    You really think that's ok?

    If you identify so strongly with Fox News that if someone criticises them, you take it as a personal attack on yourself, then that's something you need to get a grip on.

    Do you have the same reaction every time someone has a go at Fox News? Jesus.

    No. Only when they do it to "laugh" at me specifically.

    There was no reason, to 'have a go' at Fox news in this case. You did it only as a personal attack on me. Which is complete dick-headedness.

    You should expect to be called out for it.
