Gee, next we'll probably get more earthshaking news, like Republicans tending to vote Republican and Democrats tending to vore Democrat
The results of the poll being as biased as they are is a pretty good indication FOX is also, NOT the sign of a reliable news source, just another entertainment show.

So by that logic any poll that doesn't split 50/50 is biased and therefore unreliable?
I think they hear things on Fox they suspect but don't hear anywhere else. I think the sins of the other networks are mostly sins of omission (rather than lying). Marginalizing people and stories is also showing bias. You know, Fox pointing out what the other networks aren't covering is more illuminating than saying such and such a network lied.
If you miss any show on Fox, just watch MSNBC and they'll be covering it, albeit in a negative commentary. Olbermann devotes most of his show obsessing and nitpicking whatever Beck Oreilly or Hannity say.
The perfect example of this can be illustrated on the messageboard today:
There is a thread showing that Fox reported on the attempted wiretap of Louisiana Governor Mary Landreiu's phone.
Did MSNBC, CNN, et al cover the misdeeds of ACORN when they were caught repeatedly advocating the violation of federal laws regarding child prostitution?
If they did it was only after their hands were forced.
