    Fox is a news network that regularly reports news events from a conservative standpoint. They are criticized by lefties as not being a news network but merely the mouthpiece for the right. Righties claim the network is actually fair and balanced and also that it is the “most trusted name in news,” which is only true if you skew statistics. In reality, it is a news network that one needs to watch for one’s self to see what is going on. If you think it is odd that in the USA we have tv networks that report news from a point of view, then we agree. If you think that bias in the news reporting is for you, then, have a nice life… then again, I am certain that if someone disagrees with my assessment I will be labeled a fool or worse. It’s the price you pay for living in the usa these days… however, when the emperor is naked someone has to say it out loud. happy viewing!

    Great line from last night’s SNL: “This is Fox News. Look out behind you!” Keith Olbermann has the best name for them; Clusterfox.

    Fox the network owned by Australian media magnate Rupert Murdoch who managed to get a Republican controlled congress the change the laws on foreign ownership of US media outlets. He also owns the family values publication the NY Post as well as the Sun tabloid in England famous for its page 3 girls. Rupert and the Fox entertainment branch also developed such family values shows as The Bachelor and all the spin-offs.

    One observation I’ve made in life: Those who believe Fox News actually is “fair and balanced” tend to also think the strip “Mallard Fillmore” is witty.

    Fox is not tilted toward the Right. It is tilted toward the Oligarchy made up of corporate interests and ultra rich people. Of course you might think of THAT as the Right, but the Right merely ( and stupidly) takes orders from the Oligarchy.It’s not the same thing.

    On the season opener to “24” Jack Bauers Grandaughter complains that the show on TV is boring. It was of course Fox News & he promptly switched it to cartoons

    My favorite Clusterfox story was a few weeks ago when Scott Brown was announced the winner of the Massachusetts Senate race: I was at the gym where I can watch Faux and CNN, side-by-side. Faux was providing an extensive in-depth analysis (NAAARF!!!) showing how the rise in the S&P seemed to correlate to Obama’s decline in approval rating. Their conclusion: investors are more confident, knowing Obama is less able to push his “socialist agenda.” Meanwhile, CNN was airing news of Scott Brown’s win (the one that broke the Democratic “super majority”) while, get this, the stock-ticker was showing the Dow index had just dropped 199 points.

    “Fair and balanced…” Pull the other one!

    I agree with most posters about Fox not being fair and balanced as they claim. What I don’t see pointed out is that they are merely the counterpoint to CNN, MSNBC, and the other liberally-biased and just as “fair and balanced” networks. If the other outlets had merely reported news and not editorialized it in the first place, Fox would have no audience. Instead, raging sycophants like Keith “I couldn’t do sports, and I do news even worse” Olberman spend time fawning like little girls over the President and his wife, and the rest of the time they spend lobbing epithets and insults at Fox. How much news do you actually get from MSNBC’s folks like Olberman? As for me, I watch no network news save that from BBC World news, because they all create a negative pressure area.
