    Yes, on my own when looking both in TV open minded and from neutral point of view as foreigner who gives mostly a crap on wether Democrat or Republican in the USA.
    Try it by your own Chris ... look the next 2 or 3 reports in Fox News and then look the depending reports about the same issue in CNN and compare the content and how they report both differently to it. ;-)

    Yep ... Paid Satellite TV ... and among the hundreds of channels it includes are the two. Also others like e.g. CNBC and also from other countries such as Sky news, BBC, Al Jahzira, RT News ... etc.

    P.S.

    And the funny issue is that there among others, 2 big German News channels too. One is in partnership with CNN and the other one with Fox News. And what shall I say ...? Both are the same sort of Bullshit News as their American partners! ;-)

    And you're a regular viewer of Fox and CNN?

    Define regularly please ...

    For one thing, I don't watch TV all the time, I also have completely different interests as stiing infront of a TV. But since I've been working in the home office since March, or still 3 out of 5 days now, news channels run in the background at home mostly, but alternately one and then that and then another, etc. during the time, because also of a somehow interest for my job in purchasing department.

    But if there are interesting US topics ... that is of interest to me personally, then I watch the two a little more often and alternately. For example, I noticed the difference in coverage at Portland and Kenosha! OK?

    Fox WIDELY reports on events which suit left wing narratives such as mass shootings - the left wing narrative being gun control. Meanwhile, CNN doesn't cover certain attacks in the same way as they will cover mass shootings, especially shootings which involve a white shooter.

    All News Media in America seems to draw conclusions immediately after a video is presented. In my honest opinion, they should sit on the video until both sides are examined. Why do we have so called "swift justice" in the media and such a slow judicial system?? To me, that is the problem

    I agree, but I immediately passed judgement on the Floyd case after watching the tape. I was thinking that the cop was totally responsible for his death, but now it's not so clear. What about you?

    Like you....I became angry when I saw that film. It's only natural I believe. What if there was a 48 hour hold on releasing by the news media? Now we get immediate release with commentary. Commentary that looks ahead of any justice but commentary that supports an "agenda". I am utterly sick of it!
    I became angry clear back when I heard the embassy in Benghazi was about a bigoted film release. Didn't last long though. Again they lied."They" play with the emotions of good intentioned Americans. Smart ones learn to with hold judgement. Not many of us though, apparently.

    If the victim died or suffered any severe brain damage, this IDIOT that hit him should get the death penalty whether he is black white or orange.
