It appears FNC really believe they are "fair and balanced." Do you agree?

I don't and i can give a few reasons why not. Hannity's America anyone? Fox and friends?, i can go on.

More so than most and Hannity's America is one reason why. I can name more than a few left wing shows on CNN, but do they ever get attack for teh bias over it? Never.(not by the left anyway) What about Geraldo and Greta? There are more as well. I never did get why so many on the left get so mad when a view other than their own gets airtime. To be fair and balanced you need views from all sides and done so equally, other than fox most don't give the right equal airtime.

Most media has a liberal bias because those who report on the media are INFORMED people. When you're informed, you're more likely to vote Democrat. Just look at college graduates - 72% of which vote Democrat, and 19% of which vote for Republicans.

HELL NO on everything you just said. Many who vote for Obama are the most uninformed individuals in America.

Link?

Just because people are young doesn't mean that they are uninformed. I think many young people got turned on to politics because of Obama. Unfortunately I think many will be disappointed with his Presidency, since both candidates have made such sweeping promises.

I never said anything about age. All I'm saying is that hardly any of the young voters of Obama know how truly socialistic he is. The man wants National Health Care *shudder* and partial birth abortion. Abortion IS wrong on it's own but partial birth is even more disgusting and terrible. And to add to that, he claims he's a Christian. (Or Muslim, I really don't know what to believe) The man knows how to do two things better than any person I've ever seen; smile and lie.

:lol: No it isn't. The man warps the truth so badly it's hard to know what to believe and what not to. (Though I just go with the latter)

Maybe you should actually watch the show because apparently you don't.

all media is biased.Bloodbath_87
Bingo. Although, this doesn't mean a source of media can't be fair. But Fox news is neither fair nor balanced.

Here's a good recent example:

Yes I have actually. I was able to make it for 10 minutes without shutting it off. Barely.

Ever hear of satire? It's like SNL's weekend update: real news but funny (only good part of SNL left, besides their political skits). And if you're looking for news on a TV station called "Comedy Central" you're a moron. And cool, you watched it for 10 minutes. Is everyone supposed to be impressed you're above things like The Colbert Report? Better turn it back to "Fox News Fantasy Land" before those dirty liberals spread more lies about Pancakes McCain and Vice President Barbie.
