I don't know, but I seemed to have noticed a pattern of trying to make excuses for what Perry said about illegal immigration, and give him second chances in interviews. To me, it just seems like Fox is trying to do damage control after the debate.

I haven't watched Fox News in the last few days, but you are probably right. That seems like the kind of fool's errand Fox would run.

IMO< You are correct. FN hates MR, and is trying to avoid MR overtaking RP.

Why does Fox hate Mitt? He's the best they've got.

I watched it post debate, and the illegal immigration gaffe has Beck, Hannity, and the other anchors at Fox and the right-wing media, except Savage, trying to give him chances to explain himself or reverse his position. Not one has said that his stance on illegal immigration will finish him, except for Savage. They are trying to cover for him, it's sick.

SAD, Yeah Fox News Channel has resorted to the same blatant BIAS 'Shilling' for Repubs ...that CNN has done for years...for the Dems.

Funny thing is...FOX started their Channel...because they said there was nothing but unfair 'Bias' from all the other News outlets...Primarily, CNN.

Proves this fact, 'Corruptness breeds Corruptness! All media outlets are dis-honest.

It is definitely not your imagination. I have written Fox News more nasty emails lately about their ridiculous bias and poor excuses for commentators than I care to admit. It's pretty bad when I am agreeing with the obnoxious Bob Beckel and Juan Williams more than the rest. Fox is in the tank for Perry totally. When Frank Lutz had the results for his focus group last night and so many were switching their support from Perry to Romney and really were just digusted with Perry over the immigration issue, I thought somebody was going to have to pick Hannity's chin up off the floor. He is beginning to annoy me greatly btw. After the Tea Party debate, Ann Coulter let Hannity have it on his radio show about their obvious bias and pushing Perry down everyone's throats. It is so obvious it should be an insult to most people's intelligence.
