I don't watch Fox or any of the other alphabet networks out there for the simple reason that each and everyone of them is selling a point of view..

None give you the whole story, a network branding itself Conservative or Liberal is the same in my view of the peddlers of snake oil a hundred years ago..

“News” is boring and off everyone’s radar screen. Having photogenic air heads present a ratings scripted monolog day after day marketed to a targeted audience makes a profit.

The alphabet networks, in most cases, are not giving anybody nothing more than a slant on a particular days events from a particular marketing point of view..

I as most here don't trust any of them..

Who are you going to get your news from then, some magic fairy who claims she’s totally unbiased? Why are you on this forum? This forum has a clearly stated bias as well.

I would say Bill O’Reilly, Megyn Kelly, and Chris Wallace are some of the most evenhanded commentators out there, who don’t show loyalty to either political party. Tim Russert is the only clearly fair commentator I ever saw on a non-FOX network. Kelly may be the best one at this point. NBC should be offering her big bucks to take over Meet the Press, because she seems like the best heir to his throne I’ve ever seen.

Sean Hannity and John Stossel are clearly biased, but I still enjoy their programs. You either have confidence in your own point-of-view or you don’t. Why would you not want to get news from people who share your basic view on the world?

You also ignore the fact that on many of the shows on FOX, they bring on both sides and let them debate each other. O’Reilly, Kelly and Wallace are simply not biased shows. They cover all points of view.
