Let me get this straight. You are insulting Fox News and basically saying it is right wing conservative slant and then give us a very far left liberally slanted video to disput them............and you say we are outfoxed? LOL
I'll choose Fox News like millions and millions of others have. In fact they recently had a poll on what news was more fair and ballanbced and even the liberals chose Fox yet still try to discredit them because it's not the truth they want you to hear, it is the propaganda.

media is a business. they have no reason to be objective if the money isnt there. NPR is publicly funded. they have every reason to be objective.
as far as the slant of the video is concerned, it is most definitely anti-fox. i dont think theres necessarily a political objective. they are just showing fox news's tactics to induce slant and exposes their lack of objectivity. and they prove it with fox news's own video. if that isn't concrete proof, i don't know what is. can you tell me?
Can I show you something better than NPR? You bet. In my personal opinion, Fox is vastly more fair and balanced than NPR. This does not mean I think Fox is perfect, just better than NPR at being fair and balanced.

MOD CUTAs you have stated NPR is publicly funded. That means they have their money no matter what. They do not have to work for their money because it is coming out of the taxpayers pocket.
On the other hand if a program does not produce a program people want (notice I said want) they will make no money. They have to work for their money. Take a look at the very liberally slanted MSNBC. They are low on the totem pole in ratings because most people do not want to listen to that tripe.
Your youth is showing. As you have stated NPR is publicly funded. That means they have their money no matter what. They do not have to work for their money because it is coming out of the taxpayers pocket.

Did you go to school in a liberal state?
So let me get this straight....Fox is reliable and dependable because they get good ratings?

Here are the "7 Violations of Media Objectivity":
Misleading definitions and terminology.
Imbalanced reporting.
Opinions disguised as news.
Lack of context.
Selective omission.
Using true facts to draw false conclusions.
Distortion of facts.
notice that the examples cited are private businesses. cnn, ny times, etc.
fox news falls under the same category. the video i posted documents that.
