I watch the local Fox affiliate, does that count? I’ve never noticed the conservative slant but then again this is Washington DC and they have got to know who their audience is.
Plus they have local gay cutie Will Thomas. I just wish he wasn’t so stuck up when he mingles with us common folk (I see him quite often swishing around town).
So Fox News is the only biased news network out there? Or you just hate it because it’s biased to the right.
The posters in this thread are all acting pretty smug, as if there’s some great magical network that only broadcasts the TRUTH. One must watch a variety of networks to find the middle ground and the real truth.
A Republican isn’t wrong or evil just because he’s a Republican. And your precious Dems and Libs aren’t automatically right either. God, I can’t stand this bipartisan elitist attitude people have.
Yes, I watch Fox News. That doesn’t mean I’m somehow brain washed or unable to form my own opinions or decisions based on what’s presented to me. I don’t HAVE to believe in the perils of marijuana just because it was on Fox News. Christ!
I watch Fox News with the same independant thought and open mind that I’d have watching any network.
What network news do you watch? Are they always unbiased and fair? Do you always agree with their editorials (or what ever you call the opinion pieces on tv). If I always found myself agreeing with what I saw or heard on tv, I’d think there was something wrong, and I’d find another station to watch to make sure I was getting all the sides of an issue.
I dont think there is anyone or anything that I agree with 100% of the time. Do you people just automatically disagree with something because it’s Republican or rebuplican related? Or maybe a friend of a republican watched it once so it all must be a lie?? Get over yourselves.
Nope. It’s not a matter of politics. I just think it’s a lousy news outlet. For what it’s worth, I feel that way about most tv news sources. It’s mostly flash and little substance.
But is there anything concrete that makes it lousier than other tv news sources?
We’ve done this before. Even if you correct for pre-existing bias, FoxNews viewers are more likely than viewers of other mainstream to have false beliefs about the Iraq war and the connection between Iraq and 9/11. Linky-loo. This suggests that Fox’s bias actually interferes with its reporting accuracy.
Ah, like CBS and Memogate.
I watch Fox News. I like Brit Hume, but Bill O’Reilly is a bit much to take.
Doh!
