Yep. Fox has completely lost me. I tuned in the week of the convention because any other network is unbearable, but haven’t been back since. They have really screwed up trying to look ‘fair’. Their coverage during the primaries was awful. Chasing Beck out was stupid. Giving the inside the beltway intelligentsia most of the airtime is pointless. I can get better new coverage on the web.
I used to watch Fox and Friends in the mornings at least but now I watch the BBC news because they have actual news.
It’s funny how hard FOX tries to be fair, and yet the left remains frothing at the mouth about them.
It’s one thing to present the news as unbiased as possible (which I think they do), but it another to hire on leftist wingnuts to add commentary. If I wanted leftist wingnut commentary, I would watch MSNBC.
I’ve been trying to avoid watching Fox since Ailes publically banned Newt from ever appearing on the channel again. When I tune in, it seems to be rarer and rarer that they have any staunchly conservative guests on at all. Luckily a new talk radio station started here so I have two conservative stations to choose from. So during prime time I can turn on Levin, Limbaugh and Deace instead of Fox.
