Thread: Why should you watch Fox News? Because they're non-partisan? No.

Even well educated conservatives know most of Fox is crap.

What are you comparing FOX to? CNN or something?

Heh.

I'm actually of the camp that we should be critical of all news sources, because, as has been pointed out, they are all biased.

Why? The thread is about FOX news, not CNN.

Blathering about Fox news is meaningless without comparison it just reeks of unsubstantiated hatred for Fox news. Tell us what great and wonderful unbiased source you compare Fox to...Otherwise your arguments are empty.

You should watch Fox because they're the only tv or newspaper source (other than WSJ)where you'll hear certain true good things about the right, and certain true bad things about the left. That is undeniable. No other major source will tell you certain positive things about the right and certain negative issues about the left.

And you DO want an accurate picture, correct?

Then include Fox News in your news diet.

One last thing, try watching them without the preconceived mindset that EVERYTHING they say is false.

Hannity is a lot like MSNBC in his over-partisan attitude, but the rest of Fox is just fine. In fact, it's actually entertaining with enlightening.

I find I can't watch either Fox or MSNBC without wanting to yell at the 'News Entertainers"

If you can stand to watch both to get a balanced diet, more power to you.

There is a lot of that for sure. They are all trying to be news personalities. I actually enjoy the diversity in news media we have because it has decentralized the journalistic propaganda.

Also, consider that news is a lot easier to gather these days because of the internet. Cable news shows are just filters.

Sounds like something you should take up with the OP.

Stawman; I never claimed any such things. However I did say "I'm actually of the camp that we should be critical of all news sources, because, as has been pointed out, they are all biased."

Scroll up, you should see it fine. Your question has been answered.
