I hate to break this to you, but Fox News ain't really "conservative" at all. Do a little research on Mr. Rupert Murdoch and his media empire and then ask yourself what would make anyone think he's a conservative (in the American sense of the word). Fox News is nothing more than tabloid television, which is reflected by the fact that the biggest component of their ratings growth over the last year has been the one thing that most people here on FreeRepublic find so tiresome -- the inane, endless coverage of the Natalee Holloway story.

Granted, Ann Coulter is an icon of the conservative movement, but I haven't watched Fox News since they hired that @sshole Geraldo Rivera -- and warned them as much when that move was announced a couple of years ago.

You have yourself a great day.

Sincerely,

Alberta's Child

P.S. Nobody on Fox could hold a candle to Rush Limbaugh.

You are using the same illogical argument the left uses. They say the Washington Times has no credibility because they are owned by the Rev. Moon. Then they say that ABC, CBS and NBC cannot be biased to the left because of their corporate owners. Those arguments are just so much B.S. What Fox news has done is not lean to the right, but to present both sides, which no one else does. I don't watch Fox when Whorealdo is on. I rarely watch BOR and Greta. I can't watch much of H & C because of C. However, I do watch their news segments because I believe they are not biased to the left. So what if Greta talks about Natalie Holloway. Does CBS, ABC and NBC present news all the time? I think the only channel that does that is the CNN headline news and I will not watch a minute of anything CNN.

You must have missed the thread the other day when a few Freepers were referring to Ann Coulter as a "lightweight." Of course none of these pseudo-intellects were doing any syndicated writing to show Ann how to do it.

There are Freepers who apparently live to bash Rush on any thread he is mentioned.

And anyone who claims that Fox is for a certain IQ level is nothing but a pompous ass whose own IQ I would question.
