[Scott Dredge]

Fox News is great entertainment much like most of Right Wing Nut Radio.  Media bias in action.

'Fox News isn’t just bad for America, which is the usual liberal 
complaint. It’s also bad for the Republican Party, the 
still-conservative Bartlett holds, because it has stunted the GOP’s 
growth with a news agenda that ships “misinformation” to the party’s 
far-right base.'

Geraldo Rivera, Allan Combs and wife, Susan Estrich, Pat Caddell, Jehmu Green, Shepard Smith, Dennis Kucinich, Kirsten Powers, and Joe Trippi all leap immediately to mind as well.

I agree that Fox is mostly conservative, however they do have both conservative and liberal commentators. which is better that most of the other channels. I do not watch any of them as I do not get any tv.

Abstract:      



The creation of Fox News in 1996 was an event of deep, yet unappreciated, political and historical importance. For the first time, there was a news source available virtually everywhere in the United States, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with a conservative tilt. Finally, conservatives did not have to seek out bits of news favorable to their point of view in liberal publications or in small magazines and newsletters. Like someone dying of thirst in the desert, conservatives drank heavily from the Fox waters. Soon, it became the dominant - and in many cases, virtually the only - major news source for millions of Americans. This has had profound political implications that are only starting to be appreciated. Indeed, it can almost be called self-brainwashing - many conservatives now refuse to even listen to any news or opinion not vetted through Fox, and to believe whatever appears on it as the gospel truth.
