>> Does the Fox News Channel do news shows?

Sure, it does a daily news show at 5pm CST with Bret Baier. And Martha MacCaullum does "The Story with Martha MacCaullum" around this time (2-3pm) daily which is impeccably done. It tends to be more real-time in nature vs. Baier's show in the afternoon, but it is highly competent reporting of current events. There are, many times guests, which you might not consider the same as hard news, because it contains more analysis; however, it is not the wild-eyed bullshit you get on almost every other single news show.

What makes the difference is that Jake Tapper shows up with an immutable opinion. MacCaullum is far more of an actual reporter than these guys on the other cable channels or Sunday Morning news. (I actually find her more compelling than the woman who runs Fox's Sunday news show).

This stuff matters because it entirely taints the viewer's take-away.


If you wanted to see an actual example of right-leaning bias, try NewsMax (which my wife watches constantly). Totally different experience from Fox.
