I am at a loss as to what people expect of Fox. It was Fox that gave rise to the Tea Party and sent its hosts to cover and even host the first rallies on 4/15/09. But Fox is not the propaganda arm of the Right , the Tea Party or anything else. Ailes is responsible to make money for Newscorp not please all elements of the Right. Folks here complain abut BOR, but BOR pulls 3 million viewers a night . I don’t think many are Freepers or Tea Partiers. Ailes must keep those viewrs as well as Hannity’s. On the consultant side Ailes,unlike any other network, takes fair and balanced seriously. He has Rove, but he also has Erickson. He has Juan but he has Jonah Goldberg. Too often many conservatives are not accepting that people who share many but not all of their beliefs also consider themselves conservative. Fox isa welcome island in the swamp of truly left wing media. Maybe it doesn’t meet the needs of many here, but there is never going to be a net staffed by Jim Robinson and Kristin. Oh and on the news end Fox is by far the most objective.
Detox.
Agree with you completely. If Fox is now getting hate from both ends of the political spectrum, it just proves that they really are being “fair and balanced”.
