Fox News Prejudice

The constant bashing Fox News takes by Robert Greenwald's video unveils and persuades the reader into believing the news station is centered around biased thoughts and opinions. Stan James exhibits Greenwald's attacks the Fox News channel in many aspects to show that they are a prejudiced media source.

In "The Advertiser" by Stan James, the author shows a strong choice of words and lacks conjunctions between many phrases to create a series of powerful and convincing writing. James refers to Greenwald targeting Rupert Murdoch as the culprit behind influencing Americans to go against the Democratic Party. James mentions how Greenwald uses Murdoch's illustrious biography as the opening segment in his video. Stan James adds this to build up Murdoch's credibility towards the reader, only to explain how conniving and immoral Fox News and Murdoch's reputation really is. When describing Greenwald's video, he calls it an amusing, repetitive and rapid-fire selection of video clips. In a way, James is trying to convey to the reader that the video was meant to be straightforward and to the point.

In the following paragraph, Stan James mentions Fox News' motives for bringing the Democratic Party into disrepute. This use of asyndeton assembles a chain of potent phrases. He expeditiously lists off many of the networks deceiving thoughts on the other party in an unconnected and bound together paragraph. Stan James concludes by using a strong use of diction towards Bill O'Reilly, calling him Fox's "big gun". This means O'Reilly is one of the primary antagonists in Fox's empire of opinionated journalists.
