How many participants believe FOX news is given a bad rep...?

Has nothing to do with what anybody "believes". The FACTS are that Fox is the only network in the entire UNIVERSE who went to court, sued for the "right" to lie and distort on the air -- and they won the case.

YOU do the math. There is no rational mind which can justify, rationalize, or excuse this ugly fact. No person with a speck of integrity could bear to watch Faux News.

Fox News gets okay to misinform public, court ruling

UPDATED:Many news agencies lie and distort facts, not many have the guts to admit it...in court...positioning the First Amendment as their defense!

The attorneys for Fox, owned by media baron Rupert Murdoch, successfully argued the First Amendment gives broadcasters the right to lie or deliberately distort news reports on the public airwaves. We are pushing for a consumer protection solution that labels news content according to its adherence to ethical journalism standards that have been codified by the Society of Professional Journalists (Ethics: spj.org).

Yes, I do. They do slant a little to the right, but will slam into a Republican if he deserves it just as quickly as they would a Democrat. The reason FOX gets singled out is because of the right slant, since the Big 3 (ABC, CBS, NBC) slant left, and so does CNN. And don't even get me started on MSNBC.

You have to watch and take things from ALL the networks with a skeptic point of view.

Their world news has to be legit. Reporters have to maintain the facts. Their problems evolve with their opinions and are only considered truths by those who don't know the difference. Sometimes when doing the news their personal opinions over ride what was reported

People who give them a bad rep are Boosting their Ratings! Nobody is reporting the news anymore, they are making it by slugging it out and giving each other verbal shellackings.

I don't usually watch cable news, but I had FOX News on during the election, and I thought they did a really good job with that.

Try watching Brit Hume sometime.

FOX is fine, if you don't mind hearing that EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM in the history of mankind came from the "liberals."

MSNBC is also fine, if you don't mind hearing that EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM in the history of mankind came from the "conservatives."

I'd compare it to the former radio station RTLM of Rwanda.

Good God yes. Fox is fair and balanced.....Obama knows this and that is why he will never give them an interview.
