Their mantra is that they are the counterweight to the alleged liberal bias of the other networks. The third article here goes into this quite a bit, the first two just point out how they don't even try to hide their bias.

FOX may or may not have screwed the pooch with their "Military" adviser, I didn't see the story so I can't comment. What I do know about FOX is that it is THE only US television news organization with a stated goal of reporting the NEWS and not spinning the issues.

Bull. Read the articles. Why is it that only the Republicans and conservatives like Fox News?

On the whole, (and I don't watch television news all that much) When I have viewed FOX, it seemed to me that all they did was report the facts. I would prefer FOX over CNN any day. But I prefer to get my news from a variety of sources on the web, and not just from the US, I particularly like the reporting done by Canadian News agencies...when they are about international issues that is...some of the domestic issues are....hehe not of concern to the USA.

Try MSNBC or BBC if you can get it. They provide the most balanced news. I don't watch CNN enough to know whether or not they're biased, but I doubt it.

Not trying to bust your bubble, just curious as to what set you off? Just the one incident of the military advisor? Hey, anyone can lie on a resume, it took years for the College coach to get caught, the Fire chief here in DC lied out his arse to get his job, untill you have staffed a company Id be a bit less harsh on the people who are trying to fill the spaces, resumes and refferences are tough to check some times. Hell even the Secretary of the Navy a few years ago had some fibs on his record (the guy who shot himself..don't remember his name...might be Borda or some such)

Hey, if you're going to have someone you're going to consult
on the air, you'd better make darn sure you're not going to make an idiot out of yourself on the air.
