I know a lot of people are proud of themselves for coming to this well thought out and stunning conclusion.
In other new, water is wet.
Let's move on from this. I'm tired of posting revelant articles from either media source only to have people tear them down by blindly saying "well we all know Fox is trustworthy." The fact is that we do know both of these media outlets are equally trustworthy when it comes to facts.
How often are these networks proven to be lying? Yes their selection of imformation is obviously biased as well as their editorials, but if you're going to tear down a person's case, do it with facts not allegations and slander.
Wake up! Truth is not relative. There ARE facts out there. It's their importance that is in question.

Who watches that crap?
Try listening to the BBC and NPR.

They are both American paid media venues. At one point or another CNN or Fox might have more money coming from the liberal side than the conservative, or vice versa. The important thing to remember is that in America you are watching the censored version of what happened as spun by and dictated to you by an establishment or individual with an agenda all their own. Be it business, politicians, religion, law enforcement, activists, doctors, or anyone or anything else, it all has the same outlet, and the same basic motivator: self-preservation and self-promotion

It remind me of mobile phone companies. Different names, same tactic - rip you off.
What I think is important to know is that media has become a form of entertainment, similar to boxing or wrestling, and people associate their identity over what's on the TV screen. It's a mild form of brainwashing in the least. The human brain is very fragile and all this FOX and CNN overload is probably more dangerous than most people might realise, it's like a drug!
Plus - commentary is not news. I've seen people repeat the same things over and over again here, in the same language, in the same way.. and they're just media buzzwords. The far-right commentary has to stop.

Unfortunately most people think either CNN is liberal or Fox News is conservative. They refuse to be intellectually honest and admit that both are biased. It's surprising how many people will not admit either Fox News or CNN is biased.

Geraldo is a device. So is Dobbs. Frankly, mainstream media information stations are over-sensationalized trash. They dont care about information or turning in major thoughts. They care about ratings and getting the most visitors. so that they use incorrect information, sensationalize thoughts, and promises the spotlight to over-opinionated extremists. Dobbs became fired because he placed his own own bias into information. Which, in todays media, is the status quo. In genuine information, you provide the information and performance the persons imagine for themselves. CNN and Fox and MSNBC ought to forcefeed evaluations to human beings because they are too stupid to make up their very own innovations. once you've any dignity or intelligence, turn off the television information.

I agree. It's hard for me to trust anything from either network because they are sooo biased. Plus, they ALWAYS contradict each other.

Doesn't matter. These networks/channels do what it takes to make money. If the ratings slide on Fox you will see some changes to the political viewpoints.
I can't wait for Bill O'Reilly to get fired, as well as that lying, hypocritical pig Rush Limbaugh.

I agree that CNN is crap, but haven't seen any evidence of them being liberal. Do you have any?

Give me all the thumbs down you want. Tell me how liberal the network is that gives a show to Glenn Beck. How liberal is Lou Dobbs? How hard is Wolf Blitzer on conservatives? Give me a break.

Fox news gives view points from your side as well. We have to have something to laugh at while we are watching the REAL news.

Fox promised they would solve the Natalee Holloway disappearance, but they never did.
