"Both of these statements are yours not mine."

Well, if you take all of my comments on this subject
tonight in context, then those two comments are not
mutually exclusive.

"Let enter the 'no spin zone', and ask you : Make up your mind 1 way or the other."

Both statements are accurate IMO.

I didn't spin anything. My POV on this isn't all black &
white. I thought my comments made that clear.

I think FOX does have a conservative bias, but I don't
find their reporting to be heavily biased. They don't
consistently report one sided, half truths & distortions
as though it's gospel like I regularly see on CBS, NBC,
ABC, CNN, MSNBC & CNBC.

FOX regularly has guests on who have opposing viewpoints &
both sides get a chance to air their POV. Many of their
shows have both a conservative & a liberal anchor. Other
shows have an even distribution of panelists. So even
though FOX may still have a mildly conservative bias,
there is ample opportunity for liberals to respond to any
conservative spin & the viewers can decide for themselves.

And even the conservatives on FOX do not hesitate to
disagree with Bush & other Republican politicians on some
issues. I can't recall the last time I saw a liberal
reporter take issue with a liberal politician on CBS, NBC,
ABC, CNN, MSNBC or CNBC on a matter of substance.

Those memos I mentioned are a prime example.
