Europeans do not like FOX because FOX is anti-socialist, which is what ALL Europeans are. They are offended that there is another opinion of how things should work.
All Europeans are socialists, eh? I bet that's news to all Europeans.
That's the problem. They don't report news, they report what their target audience likes. If the audience don't like something, they won't hear it from FOX.
The average age of a Fox News viewer is 65! I'll bet the fact that most of Fox News viewers have nothing else to do all day except stay tuned to their channel, has something to do with their ratings.
Now I understand why Fox News uses scare tactics aimed at the retired to further their propaganda such as, "Obama wants to cut your Medicare!"
Boy do I love the ratings argument. Quantity has never equaled quality.
It's like saying that because McDonald's sells more hamburgers than anyone else that their food is the most healthy food you can eat, and we should eat it every day. Right.
Exactly! A person who has dined at the finest restaurants would have no interest in McDonald's food. In the same way, a person who has developed the ability to think critically, would have no interest in the Fox Noise propaganda.

Please, supply some examples of Fox not reporting the news.
Of course, MSNBC was showing rerun documentaries the weekend of the Ft Hood shootings and also the crotch bomber, right?

Also: The average Rush Limbaugh listener is 67, and 72% of them are men.
Contrast that with Countdown With Keith Olbermann where the average viewer is 59, and 55% of them are men. Not exactly a young crowd, but still, a significant difference.
Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC all cost the same to watch. If a Big Mac and a Ruth's Chris fillet were the same price, the vast majority of people would take the fillet. As such is the case with Fox News.
Problem is, that fillet turned out to have mad cow disease!
This is a good start. Keep it up and you will be on your road to recovery!
As if I would be better off watching CNN or the Obama channel (MSNBC).
