I myself do not think it is helping, polarizing their own party is more like it. I think thay cater to the low information types or malcontent. By in large they do not speak to the real Republican Party. Don't recall what their viewership is but I think I have heard 4 million viewers and I know there are more republicans than that.

LOL, I do know if this forum is any indication FOX scare the heck out of the left. They can't stop talking about them. You simply don't see nearly the same attention given to MSNBC because the right knows it helps our cause. Why draw attention to it? We want them to keep doing what they do. They are the Joe Biden of TV networks. I know the left sees the power of Fox and is afraid of it. This post being a prime example.

FAUX News caters to the low information types, like all cable news. They're just one turd in the cesspit.

I see your point, but all mainstream media is fairly inbalanced....MSNBC and FOX being the worst offenders...
both are catering to the Reader's Digest/Cliff's Notes/Wikipedia :sarcasm alert: >>intellectuals<<<

So proud that this country has done such a poor job at education ....it sure makes it easier for them all to wag the dog.



and lazy non thinkers chow down on the spoon-fed BS all day and get all righteous and stuff...

it's effing pathetic.

Their chief legal personality is Judge Andrew Napolitano, a self professed Libertarian.

Quote:
Andrew P. Napolitano joined FOX News Channel (FNC) in January 1998 and currently serves as the senior judicial analyst. He provides legal analysis on both FNC and FOX Business Network (FBN). He is also a fill in co-host for "FOX & Friends" regularly and co-hosts FOX News Radio's "Brian and The Judge" show daily.

Judge Napolitano is the youngest life-tenured Superior Court judge in the history of the State of New Jersey. While on the bench from 1987 to 1995, Judge Napolitano tried more than 150 jury trials and sat in all parts of the Superior Court -- criminal, civil, equity and family. He has handled thousands of sentencings, motions, hearings and divorces. For 11 years, he served as an adjunct professor of constitutional law at Seton Hall Law School, where he provided instruction in constitutional law and jurisprudence. Judge Napolitano returned to private law practice in 1995 and began television broadcasting in the same year.

Maybe you (intentionally) ignored all the right-winger threads touting Foxnews as having the highest ratings...Ratings don't equal truth, fairness, balance or journalisitc integrity which foxnews has none of. Simple minded people like news entertainment and fox's followers are certainly simple minded.

I'm a "no-winger" and I really couldn't give a rat's ass. They don't call it the "idiot box" for nothing.

My my my, Fox News really gets under the skin of the left wingers. You just have to love that! The fact that Fox continues to grow proves it is bringing people together. At least you get ALL the news there where CNN MSNBC CBS ABC NBC and other liberal lying news only report the news they want their sheep to hear.
