How else am I supposed to get Fox News and Nascar coverage? :)

Well, you have a point about the Nascar coverage, but Fox News? From everything I read about it (I don't have cable or satellite), Fox News is not what it's pumped up to be. Commentators on it say it's really not conservative--or even neutral. Apparently such a TV network does not exist. I'm in my late 60's and somehow I've lived this long without it. Don't think I've missed much--or anything.

Fox news is in general less liberal than other networks. Some commentators do tend to be conservative, others tend to be liberal.

Much of what they report on are wire service stories, and to some extent when you start with garbage, the result is often garbage.

However, they are far more likely to point out the lies and double standards of liberals, and conservatives guests get a reasonable chance to state their views.

There is no perfect news source.

Fox News is pretty much the best of the mainstream, but I wouldn't suggest taking the accuracy or impartiality of any news report for granted.
