Fox News slogan should be...

"We report. You Decide.

(but we decide what to report)!"


Seriously, are there any good channels left for news? It seems like the only unbiased is C-Span but that's like watching paint try.

I like it when right wingers, like O Reilly, pretends to say something negative about Bush just to keep everything "Fair and Balance."


I HOPE TO GOD Kerry wins so I can see what kind of a field day Fox News will have on him when elected...
 
Watch Newshour with Jim Leher and PBS radio. Yes, they may have a liberal bias, but typically they do the best of showing both sides of the story.

Secondly, if you watch Fox News as your main news resource, you are less likely to know whats going on in the world then if you watch any other network (someone get that awesome poll!).

They don't need a new slogan, just a new logo.

Actually, I find when it comes to just straight news reporting, Fox is fairly down the middle. I'm talking NEWS here, like what you see and the top and bottom of the hour, or what you hear on Fox News Radio updates, so the slogan works on that aspect.

However, all of the commentators and many of the anchors/hosts on Fox (big difference) certainly come off as conservative. And that's where the line gets fuzzy for some people, since a lot of stuff on Fox News isn't, well, news. Dayside, O'Reilly, Hannity, Colmes are all commentaries of the news.

(That said, I really like Shepard Smith. But he's not for everyone. He's one of those guys you either want to punch in the face or buy him a beer. But he did say blowjob on the air once during a J-Lo story, so he gets much love from me.)

But remember the cardinal rule here: if you agree with it, it's not biased!
 
Yeah, cause God knows the only fair news reporting to most of GAF is that with a liberal slant aka every other news network on TV besides Fox News. Sure they're slanted to the right but they are still closer to the middle than any of the blatantly liberal biased networks out there.

Yeah, like when the media kept pandering to Gore during the 2000 election, blatant liberal bias there.

$50/hour, but no kissing on the lips and colors must be pre-separated
Fox News: If you don't like it, shut up and change the fucking channel already. Hmm, actually, I think that could go for any channel. Honestly, do you think there's such a thing as news without slant? Yeah, Fox 'fair and balance' tag is bogus, but I can't say others are any more honest. That thing in your hand, it's a remote, it's used to control what's on the TV. Throw it at Bill O'Reilly if it makes you happy, but then use it for its intended purpose...
