Fox News is the only real news media outlet. Most of the rest are in bed with left-wing hogwash, fringe groups, anti-American propaganda, and other non-conservative double-speak. It truly is "Fair, Balanced, & Unafraid", and they call out the liberal movements which hurt America. Its been number one in cable news in America for ten solid years and counting. Bill O'Reilly is number one twelve years and counting.

Americans want factual news provided to them on a daily basis without the pandering and falsehoods which are spewed by the other "news" outlets.

Most of the news today is like reading a copy of The Enquirer. It's either superficial, homoginized, or sensationalized. It's all about trying to fill the air 24/7. They get stuck on one or two "stories of the Week", and ongoing things American's really need to hear about and know about, they won't talk about.

Al Jazeera probably has the best coverage.

MSNBC.com is pretty good, but the network itself is pretty terrible.

CNN is just sad. Last time I watched them, they had been reduced to reading random people's tweets on the air.

Fox is not news, it's a right wing propaganda machine.

Fox is the only one that lets both sides pontificate. When was the last time you saw that on MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, etc etc? Never? That's what I thought.

I occasionally watch MSNBC like I would probably look at a train wreck if I happened upon one. Highly amusing.

I don't know what you are watching but it is very clear that Fox News is by far the most anti-USA channel in the world and all Fox News does is lie and distort reality.

Fox News is very similar to North Korean State TV, in fact it seems they share notes.
