Media Bias Fact Check gives Fox News and CNN the same “Factual Reporting” rating: Mixed. They rate each about the same degree away from “Least Biased”, but in opposite directions.
My husband watches both, just to see what each of them says about a certain event. It makes me glad we have two TV’s, because I don’t want to hear either one of them, as biased as they both are. The main difference I’ve seen is that the Fox people tend to talk very loudly. I wonder if they think that practically yelling will make more people believe them. And, I still think that both of them should eliminate the word “news” from their titles, and substitute “propaganda.”
Why? Neither one of them has real news any more. It’s all just commentary — and highly opinionated commentary as well. Oftentimes, they both sound just alike: little kids trash-talking each other on the playground.

Not at all. The louder you say something, the more true it is. “Two plus two is four” may be true. “TWO PLUS TWO IS FIVE” obviously is. :-D ;-)
All news sources are inherently biased, human nature, we all just gravitate towards the ones that feed our already established bias. CNN is biased, FOX is biased, you go to the ones that feed you what you want to believe.

Im assuming the parrot is the one wanting FOX because those who watch FOX news always parrot whatever they tell them on that channel real or not .

Whatever the news media, there’s some sort of political propaganda in there and some human-interest stories mixed in, no matter what channel.

It was a joke. Although, I might have used MSNBC instead of CNN but the joke wouldn’t have changed.

Uck! BOTH are ultra-rightwing propeganda networks! At least MSNBC has SOME real journalists with human feelings.
