Fox News"aired more than 16 minutes of GOP questions, while showing less than eight minutes of Democratic questioning," the Media Matters post said. <snip>

And this is surprising why?

Fox News barely ever reports on live hearings. If they do, they do it for a couple of times and then they just go back to complaining about it. If you want live hearings with NO bias. I suggest you go to CSPAN. That however, can get boring. Am I the only one who likes the pundits screaming at each other on TV?
 
And GOP Senators/Representatives/Politicos are not afraid to go on MSNBC because they are not treated unprofessionally as they are on FOX.

They prefer the friendly confines of the MSM.

I do like the FOX Panel on Bret Baier, since Bret doesn't allow this crap when a Juan Williams is one of three panel members .

Their bias may not be mainstream but they certainly are, market-share wise, mainstream. Then again, they do not have to share their market base like the other mainstream channels do.

They pretty much have the monopoly on that particular bias of political (republican) ideology.
 
But FOX's goal is not to elect GOPs?
Do you remember Karl Rove;s meltdown on FOX in 2012.
He runs FOX news .

Not surprised. Their goal is to elect Republicans, not report the news.

I will agree with you on this. The panels on Fox harken back to the old days.

I said it is. Please read my post before you reply.
 
Fox news has many viewers. But they are still the anti-Msm. I think within the next 5 years you will be correct. (Praise Jesus)

FOXnews channel gunks up my TV/DVR/Cable box. Kinda like putting mayonnaise in the gas tank. I can imagine what it does to one's brain. I don't watch it.
 
Especially when Krauthammer calls the President a narcissist.
Though I must say he was 100% behind Mr. Obama the way he handled ebola--compared to Boehner's snark..
Will is always snarky.
You should try the other guys as I do .

I must know what they think--therefore I know what to expect on here.
And Bret Baier is one of the best anchors in the business .

And Bret Favre was one of the best quarterbacks in the business. Coincidence? I think not.

Bret's have alien DNA. Super-humans.

Makes sense. It is simply because many Democrats refuse to appear on Fox.
 
Prove that Democrats refuse to appear on FOX.
That's as clear as mud.
Like saying FOX refuses to ask Democrats to appear on FOX .

You're right, Democrats are beaten the door down to get on Fox! You dont really believe that do you? You guys hate Fox like I hate ISIS, only worse.

So Gringo Allstar says I Hate FOX more than he hates ISIS--let that settle in--you've obviously missed me praising Bret Baier as the best anchor on Cable. Special Report is a must-see for all political leans--in spite of some name-calling of Obama as a narcissist by Krauthammer .

How many total Republican minutes were there? And how many Democrat minutes?

Minutes mean nothing when you have more guests like Hardball Matthews. I lose count of how many GOPs and mod/con Dems like A. King and Manchin are on during his fast moving hour, since I listen to what they say .

Fair enough I can see how the phrase "you guys" could look as if I'm singling you out, when it was meant in the general sense. But let's be honest here, the left detest Fox news. And you're right about Bret Baier, he's a genuine reporter.
