Fox News is run by GHW Bush's communications director as an arm of the neocon RNC. It is owned by corporate rightwing activist Rupert Murdoch, who never conceals his far rightwing agenda. Fox News has no progressive anchors outside of Colmes who has to share time with loud-mouth buttinski Hannity. Its twelve shows are dominated by not only conservatives, but firebrand rightwing neocons, including racists, convicted criminals and smear jockeys. Geraldo would be the only exception since the rightwing started attacking Hispanics like the racists they really are. In any case no other network is like Fox News. It is clearly biased. I am not for censoring it, I am for exposing it for what it it. That is, if you hear it on Fox News, it's biased. Remember Fox News still calls the Iraq debacle "the war on terror". That in itself is a huge deliberate lie. Rightwing radio is almost pure propaganda mixed in with a lot of hate and fear-mongering including racism, sexism and every other kind of phobic fury. It has undermined democracy at the grassroots level. It has smeared all the good honest leaders in both parties. It smears McCain all the time. In many markets these neo-fascist types are the only talk shows. Rightwing talkers never allow on any dissenting views, which are now the majority views. They shout down and name-call anyone who doesn't agree with their prejudices. Because of this we need NEW LAWS to level the playing field and give THE PEOPLE back their airwaves from the huge nega-corporations. Remember Clear Channel and Murdoch do not own the airwaves, the PEOPLE do, and the PEOPLE are now progressives who want the old Bushie policies swpet out and new ones brought in.
