Call me naieve, but I don't understand why democrats hate Fox News. I watch CNN, ABC, MSNBC, and all of the news outlets to get my news. I read New York Times, The New York Post, Cincinnati Enquirer, Time Magazine, etc.
Why do so many of you hate Fox News? Please enlighten me.

Democrats hate Fox News because FN makes sure they are NOT liberal. Democrats have very liberal views. Most shows on Fox News, such as the O'Reilly Factor are very conservative. For example, Barack Obama continues to refuse to appear on the O'Reilly Factor because he's a popular Democrat. Believe it or not, I asked Obama to his face at a rally if he would appeal to moderates by appearing on O'Reilly's show. He smiled and said:
"I'll make it on there some time." People, unlike me, hate Fox News because they are controversial and usually always pick a side. By the way, The New York Times is pretty liberal if you haven't figured that out.
Hey, good question.

I will watch them occasionally but it is very difficult when even their supposed hard news show (Britt Hume) can't deliver the news without opinions and consistently leaving out information that would allow viewers to make an informed judgement.
It does provide me with an outlet to yell at my TV, as I do to my radio when I subject myself to Rush, Bill, Sean, or Michael. I'm sure it makes me a much more pleasant person after I get rid of any rage that has built up.

FOX is the only community which leans genuine, on a similar time as all different lean left somewhat or plenty. I even have got here upon no station that's impartial. on a similar time as FOX leans conservative, the do take care to be honest and furnish Democrats a voice. in all risk the main left-leaning community is MSNBC.

Fox news is completely bias. It is republican proaganda. In the 2000 US elections every news station stated Al gore won the election until all of a sudden somehow Fox news won it. Its felt with a bunch of single minded bafoons

I just don't like the negative bias of the commentators and talking heads.
FOX once cancelled a story re: BHG in milk because they were afraid of the Beef council. It shows how influenced they are by money.
In the morning I watch my local on NBC, CNN and NBC at night. I read the NYT and the Philadelphia Inquirer. MSNBC, Yahoo on the web among others.

O'Reilly mostly. He doesn't usually give his guests the opportunity to tell their side unless he agrees with them. He only tells the part of the story that makes a point that HE finds valid. If you listen to him, then change to any of 3 other stations, you find out what really happened. He isn't a valid news source, he's just another Rush.

I noticed you didn't mention Fox News in your list of sources where you get your news.

The evidence suggests that Fox News will suck your brains out.

Because it is not news. Fox went to court in Fla. to get the right to lie on their newscasts. Look it up.

Because the people on there are just so full of themselves. They don't seem real. I do watch it for comic relief.
