Just because a news station says a slogan 1000 times a day doesnt make it so.

Yes. It is. You're just not used to getting both sides, so you are on mental overload. Watch it more often, and you will see that it is very fair. Unlike CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN.
Show me another network that shows both sides of the argument. Why should the left wing have a monopoly on news coverage and editorials?
Everyone made a big deal about Tony Snow going and being Press Secretary, but nobody had a single complaint when George Stephanopolis went to work for the media after he left the Clinton's. Where is the fairness in that? How come the liberals just won't admit that the major news companies have had a strangle hold on the airwaves for so long?
Can't stand the fact the Fox is leading in all of the ratings???? And your beloved Air Amerika is Bankrupt? Perhaps Fox has the winning formula. But like medicine, some people don't want to take it because they don't like the taste. Too Bad!!!!
Shut up, and take it like an adult!
Better yet, if you don't like it.......DON'T WATCH IT! That's what being free is about. Wait, I forget, liberals don't believe in freedom, unless it adheres to their belief system.

Compared to what? CBS? The 'we will lie for profit or affiliation' station? Fox is at least able to admit an opposition source, however lame, into the equation. Mapes never understood how offensive it was that she would secretly support the Democrats while claiming to be neutral. CNN has not acknowledged that agreeing to support Saddam in order to stay in Iraq might not have been a good idea. The idea that you would attack Fox while ignoring the historic transgressions of the liberal media shows that you simply wish for the lies from your side of the spectrum to be unchallenged. Look at Fox's interview of Clinton this week, it showed just how weak Clinton was on national defense, and did so by using Clinton's own words. Would CNN have allowed something that made Bill look like an idiot to get on the air? Probably not. Did Fox alter what Clinton said? No, Clinton did the damage all by himself.

You are correct in saying "just because a news station says a slogan 1000 times a day doesn't make it so" . However , compared to the rest of them- they are a bit more fair and a bit more balanced . I think there's an unwritten ( and possibly written in - in some cases ) rule among newsrooms to sway the public .

Everyone say's Shawn Hannity is way out of line. Alan Combs is so far to the left his left leg is shorter than his right. Where can you find a more fairly balanced talk show? I do know that Fox does show some of the good stuff happening in Iraq along with the bad. You decide.

I like Fox News because it is almost in the middle but not quite. The best way to get fair and balanced is to listen \ watch \ read all 3 BBC, CNN, and Fox. Then you decide.

Fair and Balanced? hahahahahahahaahah and I've got six toes on each foot. Fox gives fair and balanced news reporting a bad name.

I don't believe any news channel is fair or balanced.

While most news media outlets have some bias, Fox News is about as about as fair and balanced as Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coulter. Most of their cast consists of far-right pundits, and one puppet lib.(Colmes)

Do you not believe that Fox news is the only conservative network on television, so are they not just balancing out the media world. If it werent for Fox, all of media would be liberal.

All you have to do is listen to their stories to realize that they are "fair and balanced". But the people of today don't like what they're putting out because it tramples on their own selfish views of how the world should be!
