When I get home at 6-6:30 Central, there is no "news" on, only opinion shows. That is as close to news as I, and the majority of the self-informing public, are able to get, aside from internet browsing during downtime on the job. I think that is where the primary complaint is coming from - no one watches the supposed unbiased news during the day). If you're looking at the programming on Fox that people actually watch, which is what the WH is doing, it is blatantly biased, yet even these opinion programs boast that they are "fair and balanced" when they are anything but. Bringing a liberal point of view on the show, then shouting over them and not letting them talk doesn’t give balance. <br> <br> When someone says that Fox as a whole has a conservative bias, try looking at it from an executive level – someone at the top is saying “I’m going to manage a network, but I need prime-time message carriers. I know, I’ll pick the most conservative guys possible, then SAY we’re fair and balanced, and the stupid public will believe it. They’ll say things that cause controversy, and people will get stirred up and tune in to see what they say next. Ratings will go through the roof and I’ll make a ton of money! And while I’m at it, I want to hire Karl Rove as a key contributor, and the former Bush press secretary Dana Perino, and give Dick Cheney all the air time he’d like. I can do this and still be fair and balanced because I hired Dick Morris, who was an advisor to Clinton, but SURPRISE! he’s not a liberal! Now, if only we could find a liberal advisor to the Bush administration…. Oh, Colin Powell? He’s fake Republican, we need to make sure everyone knows how big a fool he is. Oh, and don’t even get me started on Scott McClellan… Hannity, go out there and destroy him.”
