them, regardless of what side of politics they support. Please don't think that I'm trying to insult or offend you here, but every single journalist has a personal bias, and that is brought out in the way that they do their story. Mainstream media in general is never immune from such biases, and it is unfair to pick on one particular media outlet for showing certain political bias when all the other mainstream media outlets do exactly the same. It may be that because people agree with one, they don't notice the bias as much as another media outlet that has a conflicting viewpoint and/or worldview. It could also be that the other media outlets' biases have them displaying their political biases and agendas in a more subtle way, so as to have people believe that they are objective, when they really aren't. It's much more complicated than just pointing the finger at Fox and saying they're biased and untrustworthy, hence my decision to stay away from mainstream media in general for the most part and when I can avoid it.

Yet another reason why I don't pay much attention to mainstream media anymore. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Dec 05, 22:43

There's a difference between mos mainstream media and Fox. The latter constantly displays its political bias and is always untrustworthy {nm} numbersix_99 Dec 06, 00:32

My mom would claim the opposite. I do not talk politics with her. (NM) Kevman66 Dec 06, 00:49

Sorry, but Fox is way worse than any other network in how it spins and distorts the news. No comparison, really. {nm} stevie1der328 Dec 06, 04:46

Agreed, Stevie. Every journalist has bias, but most control it. Fox do they opposite, they exaggerate their bias. {nm} numbersix_99 Dec 06, 04:50

Believe what you want. Delving into politics on these boards is pointless, and out of place. {nm} edzep Dec 06, 09:36

You mean like MSNBC who had their reporters on air wear Democratic campaign buttons a few years back? {nm} mrbeankc Dec 06, 09:34

My point exactly. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Dec 06, 13:58

I blame Matt Drudge (m) Electricbassguy Dec 06, 02:00

I wonder if the corporate bigwigs at Disney realized this when they greenlit it. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Dec 06, 04:01

"is liberal hollywood using class warfare to brainwash our kids?" it is just as annoying for one media {nm} forlorne Dec 06, 07:12

to inaccurately report on another as what they said in the first place. this is why i haven't had television in 20 years. {nm} forlorne Dec 06, 07:15

I think that's a good decision, personally. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Dec 06, 13:49
