I'm not saying FOX News is the shining light of objective journalism. They are biased. They are right wing. That's a given.
Look back at the election coverage during the the Presidential Election. The majority of the media outlets were cheering Obama on to a win and our Democratic supportive media groups.
FOX News is one of the few Republican supporting media groups and has a necessary place within the media spectrum in America.
I am a Conservative, so I do like to watch them occasionally through the day to get some balance on the American political situation. But then I watch an equal amount of CNN as well to get the Democratic end of things.
Its not the conservative slant people are angry about. Quite a few cons on this forum attack them as well.
Its the posting of unbeliveably anti-Canadian garbage. Despite what you say its far from "only 3am programming" (even though that doesn't excuse it).
We have had many threads about them showing absolute rants of the worst sterotypical order against us.
Our cops all ride horses? That kind of programming has no place on a news show/network that claims to be top flight.
