I'm sure this was already mentioned, but I would love it if this poll had been restricted to people who have actually watched Fox News. People who have never watched Fox and have only heard what the liberal media wants to say about it should not be voting. I also want a distinction to be made between the hard news programs and the commentary programs like O'Reilly, Beck, Hannity and to a certain extent, Huckabee. Greta is the Larry King of Fox, so she isn't really considered news or commentary. Fox and Friends is a mix of both.
That said, of course it is aimed at a Republican audience, but the news is not biased in that way. The commentators also try to get representatives from both sides to do interviews, and it's not their fault that the liberals often turn them down.
Andrea, the majority of "liberals" who complain about Fox News have watched more than enough of its "fair and balanced" coverage to have drawn a tangible conclusion on what the network stands for. Simply dismissing their opinions because they are "liberal" isn't going to change the fact that a large portion of the country is repulsed by the low ethical standards Fox has sunk to.
Have you ever wondered why liberals on here can point to specific examples of Fox News fabricating lies, yet those conservatives who hate MSNBC never validate their claims with substantial evidence?
- $200 million/per day India trip (false)
- Obama hating white people (false)
- Obama born in Kenya (false)
- Pallin' around with terrorists (false)
- Death panels (false)
- Obama being Muslim (false)
I can validate all of these outrageous assertions that Fox has rammed down the throats of conservative America. This is where we have to draw the line of news versus propaganda. The sooner conservatives realize that Fox News is detrimental to their cause, the sooner their base will grow and diversify. You can't fix what you won't admit is broken.

Fox is obviously right-wing oriented, and almost all others (especially MSNBC and NPR) are obviously left-wing oriented. What we really need is non-partisan and non-sensational honest programming with little or no politcal spin one way or the other, which in reality would probably be boring as hell, but hey, boring ain't always so bad. Sometimes I could do with a little less excitement in my life.
I do remember watching the news all the time before the last presidential election-fox was the only news that would ever say anything negative about Obama. I felt like they were the only news station not brainwashed by Obama mania. I have been a fan ever since-
Now lets have a pole to see who is more fair and balanced; Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC, or CBS.
None of the above.
