When will Fox be labeled for what it is a tabloid?

Update:

After the report from Fox news about how vigilante s took down the China Flag in the Iowa State Capital came out. Only to find out the (1) man that took down the Flag, was the person who is paid by the State to do that job of course after the China official left the Capital.

    Because tabloid journalism is now called Infotainment in the US.

    That sounds way classier than "Networks Who Learned How To Spin The News From The National Enquirer" and lulls gullible and naive Americans into thinking their media somehow still adheres to actual, traditional journalistic standards and ethics.

    Even a tabloid gets the story right once in a while, why ruin the tabloids reputation by putting FOX in that category.

    There are such things as libel laws you know!

    Nowadays all so-called news medias are ALL nothing but tabloids where news is mostly sensationalized.

    When it becomes a tabloid and since it isn't and has no plans to become one, it won't happen anytime soon.

    If you are referring to fox news, the answer is never. Unfortunately to large a demographic view it as a credible news source. The same can be said for MSNBC. I hate both of them equally and see them as just mouth pieces of the two parties. If you want real unobjective news, watch CNN or BBC. I'm an independent.

    It has already been labeled that but the people who love it aren't listening to anything but FOX. They're certainly not going to call themselves what they are.

    It's half news and half entertainment. Watch the segments where the Fox News whackjobs bash the Muppets. It's very cute.

    Strictly speaking, it is a comic.
