I dont even have cable... And I assume those that do watch fox news could give it a **** that it was... In fact that would be more of a reason for them if anything.

So OP, what wouldyou reccomend instead? MSNBC? lol I hate both fox, cnn and abc BBC etc. All terrible and none of them are good sources for news or opinion.

I sometimes watch RT, seems better still not sure though.

They all push an agenda, RT is pushing one too. They all suck.

I tend to go with BBC news. They are guilty of their share of spin, but it's less intrusive because their articles and anouncements are are far more concise than our media. They also seem to do better with keeping up with science, and I love their one minute world news.

Fox is "news entertainment", so they can make up whatever they want. Kinda like the onion.

That's one reason I stopped watching TV, and keep myself informed with googlenews. It give my a sample of every political inclinations (left, right or neutral) for any specific subject.


But I hate Faux News espescially, since Murdoch took control of it. They aren't just interpreting facts in their favor, they have been caught several times creating facts out of thin air. And their anti-Obama propaganda often reach /facepalm levels.

You might also be interested in http://www.politifact.com/, which checks the accuracy of various political claims. The history behind the politifact "owners" is interesting: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/blog/2011/oct/06/who-pays-for-politifact/

Mainly radio for me now. BBC world service at night makes the shifts so much more bareable.
