::Yes, it's what's called "logic." It's neither liberal nor conservative. It's sometimes used dishonestly by people to push bias, and it's sometimes used by people to determine as fairly as possible what material is or is not encyclopedic. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 15:09, 17 June 2007 (EDT)
 
"Fox Derangement Syndrome" IS a "real" phrase...now. Bernard Goldberg even wrote about the subject in an entire chapter of his latest book. Heck, "Fox Derangement Syndrome" is the title of the chapter! -- [[User:AmeriCan|AmeriCan]] 14:02, 17 June 2007 (EDT)
