Fox News says that they are Fair and Balance News. Do you agree with Fox News on them saying that they are Fair and Balance? Why or why not?

I agree with some of the others and say that no news outlet is exactly fair and balanced. They will all bend things the direction they feel best in reaching the audience they strive for. However, I do personally think CNN does a little better job of getting more views on topics and better analysis. I watched some interview that Bill O'Reilly did and he said Fox News gets higher rating because they report on things that people like to see...like celebrity gossip over politics because rating go down when that is discussed.

Both the words fair and balanced are subjective and a matter of opinion.
For some it might be Fair and Balanced, for others it will not be.
The one thing I can say is that Fox News, or any other news agency is not unbiased.

working interior the geo-political/defense force employer, I surely have get entry to to specific suggestions that doesn't get released publicly. Having typed that, no information team gets it precise each and every of the time. The worst is, by ability of far, CNN. Ted Turner and his socialist regime have long gone way off the deep end right here. Fox information tried to counter that with a extra precise wing suggestions-set; yet calling themselves honest and balanced isn't precisely genuine. i think of human beings supply Fox a problematic time because of the fact they are so used to seeing an extremely left media that as quickly as one swings out to the wonderful this is a extensive shift. one factor that sways my opinion is that CNN could have one guy or woman on there telling you what to think of the place Fox could have a representative from the left and the wonderful debating the difficulty for you so which you will choose for. the two way, take each and every little thing you examine and watch with a grain of salt and don't be like those celebrities that purely repeat what they hear on CNN as their own own opinion.

I prefer Fox over the other news stations, but I all so know not all stories are fair and balanced. One has to do their homework, read and listen.

I don't truly agree they are fair and balanced. But I gotta say, I'm glad they're out there doing what they do. They bring up some of the angles that have been filtered out by the other TV medias.

NO news is fair and balanced. Media are all about opinions...you have to be suspect of all NEWS...Fox, CNN, MSNBC...etc.

Fox Noise is anything BUT "fair and balanced." They have a clear and well-documented pro-Republican, anti-Democratic bias. If you haven't yet, please see the documentary Outfoxed or visit mediamatters.org for daily instances of right-wing bias on Fox.

No!! I have watched them for about 5 years now, but I have always been weary of them, that's why I quit watching CNN. I think you'd have to be brain dead to believe their bs. After watching them laugh at Ron Paul I was shocked!! (and laughing at the same time)

They spend more time reporting non news items and when they report news is pro Republican. Unbalanced and unfair.
