My wholesale love affair with Fox has lost some of its previous "passion" since Fox had the first opportunity to distribute Mel Gibson's Passion movie and very publicly said NO, caving to a protest of Jewish politicians outside Fox News headquarters.

Maybe Fox News is one of those examples of even a broken clock is right twice a day. Everything else Fox does sucks -- Murdoch's newspapers are mostly sensationalist garbage, Fox TV channels spread trash with even their advertisements during sporting events unsuitable for kids, and as for Fox films, they passed on Mel's pro-Christian movie but had no problem releasing the very anti-Catholic The Order which justifiably bombed. If Mel's movie doesn't get a distributor soon, I've heard some rumblings from Christian sites about starting a boycott of Fox to punish them for taking conservatives for granted and biting the hand that feeds.

Everything's political these days.

Don't confuse Fox with FNC. The only thing we can stomach watching on Fox is America's Most Wanted, which is quality programming that's actually providing a service. Most of the rest is indeed garbage.

Fox News Channel, though, does an excellent job of covering both (or multiple) sides of a story.
