A question for all FOX NEWS viewers?
Is fox news itself fair & balanced, or is it a counter-weight to the main stream media? Because I think they can't be both. They have used the counter-weight argument before(which suggests they're on the right to balance everything out), but have also used the fact that they have left wing & right wing pundits during their on air debate segments(which suggests they are themselves fair & balanced. But they can't both be directly in the center and be a counter-weight, can they?

It's neither. It's Pravda for right-wingers. No credibility, no facts. Did anyone see the ridiculous "interview" Chris "my father is a journalist, I'm not" Wallace had with Jon Stewart. Idiot tried to embarrass Stewart by showing a clip of a Pamela Anderson roast on Comedy Central. So? Fox has Sean Insanity. Is that actually your critique?

Because the number of poorly informed US citizens is so great, Fox News can control their thoughts and get them as viewers. It's easier to disagree with the administration than to try to understand policies, so holler loudly while draped in the US flag, they lie, distort, and confuse, not because it's good for their country. Fox News is in business to make money, viewer share attracts sponsors profit.
Their on air personalities who at one time were professional newscasters have sold their intergity to the highest paycheck. If you watch it for entertainment value only it's very funny, as is SNL's weekend report.

Ask yourself who founded Fox News.
When you get the answer *Rupert Murdoch*, you'll have the reply that you are looking for.
The man is a vicious right-wing crazy.

The main problem with your question is using 'Fox' and 'think' in the same paragraph.

Your questions is a little "deep" for Fox viewers.
I do, however, see your point.
Not too sure Fox viewers will.
