Woman: Hey, Mel, who was that dude you were talking to? Melissa: Fox reporter. He wanted to confirm that the war is going great. Woman: Oh yeah? Good to know. Melissa: More evidence that watching Fox really does make you stupider. It's like getting your news from the town drunk. Voice: Obama: Soft on terror? You decide! Roland: Anyone here disagree? No?
Everybody goes on about Fox because it IS different. Its slant is so obviously Republican, it reminds me of the old communist news reports (I used to live in West Berlin and watch East German TV). Every news outlet has a general bias, but most are not out there to support a particular party as Fox is. What they report and how they report it is essentially designed to undermine anything non-Republican.
