Now conservative news is on the same level as global terrorists? As long as liberal media and liberal lobbyists can 'control the news', they can control the people.........just what conservatives have been saying for a long time now and why there is finally lots of pushback.

Fox News North dies...
Sun News' fundamental problem wasn't the cheap production values; that could have been fixed with more money, as viewership grew. The real issue was that Canada just doesn't have enough "regular-white-guy resentment" to support a mass-viewership news channel catering to pissed-off ordinary Joes.
Unlike the United States, Canada has no endlessly burning tire-fire of outrage over illegal immigration, no perpetual abortion debate, no chief judge waging 10 Commandments-inspired war on gay marriage, no Ferguson, no Benghazi, no Tea Party gun-hysteria. The United States has a culture war. Here, we have Question Period.
Since 2008, Fox's ace in the hole has been Barack Obama. No matter how thin the news may be on a given day, Fox anchors always can wile away the hours reminding viewers of how awful America has become under Obama's socialist, Islamo-appeasing presidency. In Canada, it's precisely the opposite. Sun News started broadcasting on April 18, 2011, exactly two weeks before Stephen Harper earned his first majority mandate. The timing couldn't have been worse. The whole raison d'etre of an insurgent network like Sun is to kick the bums out. But Harper had already taken care of that. So what's the point of watching?

So now the ONLY place you can use "insurgent" is when referring to terrorists?
surging or rushing in: The insurgent waves battered the shore.
Tea Party...Insurgent/terrorists?
a member of a section of a political party that revolts against the methods or policies of the party.

According to FOX News, when Jon Stewart and the Daily Show are gone, Comedy Central has lost control of the news media.
Comedy Central is the liberal news media? Conservatives faces would crack if they tried to laugh.
