What has happened to FoxNews?

Probably the same thing that happened to Gallup after Moveon.org accused them of being biased toward Republicans. They moved hard left in order to show that they're "fair".

Brit is trying to get liberal enough to qualify as a future debate moderator.

let them go. they need to go through a kind of purge. OReilly has to go, he is essentially the "anchor" for the network, and there is no way they can adjust back to the right with him as the anchor. the only way to change them is to stop watching and hope their rating falls.

First, take a deep breath...

Most people want others to amplify their own opinions. When that happens, the others are great; when that doesn't happen, the others are [unprintable].

You gotta remember that 99% of the people you see on TV live in the blue states. Even if they don't realize it, they are immersed in that culture, and "fair and balanced" to them has a different pivot point than "fair and balanced" to you.

As for composing a e-mail... they'll love it, because it shows they got your attention!

I canceled my cable TV and I must say, I'm feeling a lot calmer lately. No exposure to liberals spouting crap on the news channels. I feel liberated. I'm much more relaxed. I thought I would go into withdrawal, since I've been addicted to the news channels for years. But I don't miss them.

Already sent an e-mail

I have been watching between CNN and MSNBC - depending on the time of day - but there is one guy at Fox who isn't too bad yet - he's a sub for when the regular guy isn't there

I believe CNN is getting more fair and balanced at times - and, it wasn't that long ago, that I didn't think that was even possible

I think as the election draws near, Fox is making sure it is perceived as "fair and balanced" to maintain its credibility over obviously-unbalanced outlets like CBS. While I don't like what seems to be an increased focus on the Dems, I do understand why they would take pains to avoid accusations of bias. Especially since Rathergate.

Don Henley's "Dirty Laundry" should be FoxNews's lead-in and bumper music...

My suggestion would be for everyone to stop watching it. Conservatives made FOX big. Maybe conservatives can cause it to fall...And go back to its roots.

Peter Chernin's 25,000 gift to the DNC

Chernin is Fox News CEO and as you can see a big Kerry donor and Dem contributor.
