Interesting, if the shoe were on the other foot and it was Fox News in this situation, nobody would even care. They expect no better from Fox.

This is nonsense. Fox has taken over the TV news business for one reason only: Fairness in reporting. The reporting is honest, if nothing else. While they do lean slightly to the right, it certainly isn't on the order of what other networks' lean to left is -- like CBS, CNN, ABC, NBC, or the NYT (ugh).

Murdoch saw a business opportunity, in that he realized the media was effectively lying to Americans, and that honest reporting would be a big hit. And it has.

Trying to level this kind of allegation against Fox is an unwarranted attack. It is highly unlikely this kind of reporting could EVER occur at Fox, because there is no agenda the way there is at CBS.

As I mentioned the other day, I believe you'll see CBS come back with a much more balanced broadcast. While the liberal agenda is important to them, the bottom line is more important.
