It usually comes from liberals who are so used to the left-wing media bias from ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, Washington Post etc. that that seems like the norm. When Fox gives both sides of an issue it seems right-wing in comparison when in reality it is the most objective news you are likely to find.

People have been lied to by news organizations like ABC, CBS NBC,CNBC, MSNBC, CNN and now that FOX NEWS has been around reporting the absolute truth for 10 years they finally realize all the lies and they watch FOX NEWS.
People that are cynical of FOX NEWS are left wingers and they can be found at all of the above news organizations.
FOX NEWS has more viewers than any other news organization in the world and all the competition is now very mad about FOX NEWS being around.
For example The Factor with Bill O`Reilly has 7,000,000 viewers a night, Not including the rerun at midnight which does another 4,000,000 (yes million)
Countdown with Keith Oberman on MSNBC has 120,000 total including his rerun, If they even rerun it it has such low ratings.
All of those news organizations hate the FOX NEWS CORP. because they have taken all of the customers that were telling lies to for years, All of those people cannot be wrong.
People love to see people lose, It makes them feel better about themselves, I would`NT watch anything other than FOX NEWS because I know I`m being told the truth.

I am cynical with all news - what brought it home to me was the whole thing with the Dome and the exhibition in London. It was brilliant, and every person I met who actually went agreed (bar one). However the Daily Mail decided to destroy it. So it attacked it at every opportunity and did bring about its fall.
The news media is - on the whole - just a bunch of self seeking - unelected - unelectable - egotists who want to rule the world without taking any of the responsibility for their actions.
The whole of the British media bar 3 newspapers are so right wing they only just tolerate the Tories until something more right comes along

That's because they often don't cover the real news. They focus way too much on entertainment, gossip, and other non-news events. It's essentially a tabloid news channel. Unfortunately, the other news channels have followed their lead. Tell me, what exactly is so earth-shattering about Britney Spears losing custody of her children that it's more important than what's going on in Iraq or other parts of the world? I think it's so sad that many people consider what is happening in a celebrity's life deserves more coverage than events that actually do impact their lives. Britney Spears has little or no impact on our lives. However, the continuing quagmire in Iraq does.

The liberal media doesn't like people to hear any other opinion other than their own. Glad Fox gives the otherside of the story.
