why does everyone hate fox news?

Update:

They seem to report on the same things the other stations reports on.

    Because fox news has gone so far to a right-wing extreme that they are fully into propaganda territory. They have done away with reporting and have moved into political influence only. All networks have some bias, but fox has taken it to a dangerous extreme. All for the sake of ratings and money.

    Its the way they report things, mainly on political issues. Fox news journalists are mainly supportive of the republican party and try to make their viewers think like they think. Some major stories are reported, many are not that should be. It's all about the viewers. They're not considered "fair and balanced" like they proclaim themselves to be. And its very unpopular outside of the US and many non-Americans (and even some Americans) believe that Fox news is a government funded propaganda agency(I don't think so however...).

    A popular criticism is the Bill O'Reilly show. He seems to implement his own thoughts and opinions and makes himself seem correct. I personally hate that show the most.

    It's all up to you. Personally I wouldn't watch Fox news, or any one newscast. Try to get the whole picture on an issue from different news agencies and you will see some difference. On the internet you will find international news agencies(Al Jazeera, France 24, etc.). Comparing some of those to Fox news you will see major differences.

    Because they are cruel and anti-worker. They are the mouthpiece of the rich-only interested in protecting their bank accounts. They call any criticism of that "class warfare". They could care less about the lower middle class, the backbone of our country.

    Everyone ? I believe that this is what they call a "loaded question."
