You could watch Michael Moore on CNN, but that would be like choosing to shoot yourself in the other leg, instead.

Finlandization. (As in the predicament of Finland vis-a-vis the USSR during the Cold War.)

FNC is the only thing standing in the way of complete domination of the TV airwaves by pro-Obama "news" outlets--without them, the tea parties and ACORN scandals and Van Jones and such wouldn't get aired at all. They're hoping if they come running whenever Obama rings the bell, they will be allowed to stay in operation.

C-SPAN had a fairly balanced and moderately interesting panel on earlier, from the College of Charleston, on political scandals and how they should be covered. One of the panelists said that when he was asked to participate, and was told that it would be an hour and a half on C-SPAN, he thought to himself that the scandals in South Carolina didn't deserve an hour and a half, but rather a Ken Burns 12-part miniseries. (He meant including earlier scandals, not just Mark Sanford and other recent stuff.)
