From what I've observed, it looks like defenders of Fox News are starting to admit that their favorite news station is really an arm of the Republican Party.
I can't imagine anybody claiming they are not a mouthpiece for the GOP.
So far, one-third of the voters say it's a fair and balanced news network. Interesting how that corresponds with the fact that one-third of Americans are registered Republicans, isn't it?
Fox News and their viewers lie. Not only is the fair and balanced thing a lie, they lie daily. Expect people to lie when they take the poll too. You won't get an honest answer from them. Even if you love the network, you can't possible think it's fair or balanced unless your scale is broken.
I've never heard anyone actually claim Fox news is impartial in their coverage. Usually the response involves criticizing the "liberal mainstream media" or praising Fox for waging a war against liberalism and the Democratic party, however I've yet to come across someone bold enough to claim Fox news is "fair and balanced" in their coverage.
I'd also like to point out that Fox's bias extends beyond their opinionated political commentators (which in case anyone noticed are all conservative/GOP). Their "news" coverage is saturated with favorable coverage of the GOP and constant criticism of this president and the Democratic party. It's blatantly obvious they're the republican party's media outlet.

Surely you jest. The same people who have lived alternate realities for the past 10 years are capable of believing that. Many post on this forum daily.

Brainwashing...it has definitely proven to be successful for Fox News and the GOP.
