...Not really. I think article content might prove your point, but these headlines alone don't.


his point was that Fox News was the best news network in the world but yet they mainly only cover American news, so yes my point is proven
 
BBC News Headline right now is at least 27 dead in Syria


Fox News US Military debuts new cargo drone



I think my point is proven

Rush Limbaugh would call that a, "random act of journalism".

again, not really. Citing two articles based on a quick load of either site at a random point in time doesn't really prove anything.

I don't disagree with you, I just think that effort on your part kind of failed.
 
this should be a dead subject for most

of course Fox is NOT fair and balanced, they are one of the most bias news stations out there. Fox along with ,which is at the other end of the spectrum, are the worse of the worse.

Anybody that doesnt accept this is not to be taken seriously and is bias themselves.


FNC has the highest quality of news reporting of any news org in the world.



LMAO I rest my case, exhibit A :D

well I could go into more detail but im enjoying my beer and that seems like a lot of effort
 
No news network anywhere is fair and balanced.
 
It most certainly is not, and I'm a social conservative. It's as biased as MSNBC/CNN/NBC. Yet, those afore-mentioned news channels, iirc, don't call themselves fair and balanced.

Don't claim to be what you aren't, Fox News.

Though, CNN and NBC are just as biased.

Let's be fair.
 
I think O'Reilly is pretty fair. Sure, he is a conservative, but he gives everyone a fair shake when they come on the show. His interview with Bill Clinton was great.

yeh I would agree with that
 
Fox News has more of a conservative lean. However, I think they are more fair and balanced than MSNBC (which is a heavy left leaning network).

Just as bias as FOX and MSNBC? I disagree nobody is as bad as those two.

are they "CLEARLY" bias? yes absolutely.

O'Reilly, I think, is somewhat fair, or should I say fairer than Sean Hannity.

I can't really gauge the level of bias between CNN and FOX, but they, to me, seem just as biased. Then again, I don't know. Perhaps CNN is slightly less biased, yet still biased all the same.

I dont think the words fair and balanced have any business being used to refer to either of those networks, its and insult to the phrase fair and balanced. :lol:

Fox News' "Fair and Balanced" slogan probably does them more harm than good. It draws attention to their bias.

Well that last part I agree with "bias IS bias" no REAL point in debating the difference but to me it doesnt get any worse than FOX and MSNBC.

To me those two are clealry king and the worse of the worse and FOX probably takes a little more of an unfair beating BUT thats their own fault for having the false motto of Fair and balanced LOL

They should just say "Fox News almost always right! . . . . . . leaning that is"
MSNBC motto should be "we try to be the opposite of fox, we're just not as good at it"
 
O'Reilly, I think, is somewhat fair, or should I say fairer than Sean Hannity.

O'Reilly is not fair, has never been fair. He only seems sane in comparison to all the other ****nuts and dimwits they have on that channel.
 
Is Fox News Fair And Balanced as their slogan tends to claim?


Good lordy. How many of these identical polls are going get created? Any chance the Mods could just hang a "sticky" on one of them and let the Left take potshots at FoxNews forever?


Seems like a fair option.....

I never said they were fair and balanced, just more fair and balanced than MSNBC. Fox does have a conservative lean, but I don't think all biases are of equal magnitude. Fox has a few good reporters that I think try their best to be objective. O'Reilly is pretty fair in my opinion along with Greta.

I agree, as soon as we have a permanent abortion poll, permanent gay marriage poll, and permanent "is religion good or bad poll" to go along with it.
