<<< I don't see FOX the same way >>>

FOX has taken the concept of "news" and applied a little twist. They make it entertainment for mindless minions that no longer have the capacity to think for themselves. The Hannitys and Becks misquote or appear indignant and create controversy where before there was nothing but at best a questionable soundbite. There's always the guest "expert" for support usually followed by the exasperation as to why the "other" networks are not even covering their "story".

Are some claims credible. Sure. But the general concern for real news reporting seems to be more of an afterthought. The actual news isn't as interesting without a good controversy.

As to the other networks, the only difference is they don't do the same thing as well as FOX.

Just my thoughts
