Fox's conservative news bias is just too well documented to deny.



It's not the only study out there.

Just out of curiousity, are you actually denying Fox has a blatant conservative bias?
Cause if not, our dispute is probably primarily semantical.
I have no problem acknowledging some other news stations have a liberal bias.

But when you have something like Dan Rather happen, people get called out on it.
I see the original post of this thread as little more than that. Calling a news station on something that is ridiculous.

This thread has thoroughly devolved from any discussion on what that video clip actually was. Fox News (or specifically an anchor) didn't like how the interview was going after they tried to skewer their interviewee on a biased approach, and so they cut it short for a ridiculous excuse.
Nobody seems to want to discuss that, which I guess is similar to nobody can deny that.
I don't know why you are saying nobody wants to discuss the issue. Everyone has pretty much responded by saying that this behavior is not unique to Fox News. Therefore, this is a problem with the media as a whole, not just Fox News. Perhaps others think it is somewhat pointless to single out one instance on Fox News as an indictment of the entire cable channel when ALL cable channels are guilty of the same thing. I know I do. Anyway, yes, Fox News is biased. Are you happy?

Here's a revealing clip from CNN back in the first Iraq war.

Open your eyes. They are all liars.

PS - Dan Rather was just a fall guy. If they expose somebody every once in a while it will keep Americans thinking the media is actually honest.
