Fox is conservative. Most toddlers and woodland creatures know this. You just have to deal with it, you know?

Fox is the anti-christ..they attack everything good in the world so by them attacking Obama, they are showing us that he is the right candidate. Simple as that.

I haven't picked a candidate. But whether I liked either, it sucks when people aren't objective.
but no one is truly not biased, so you just have to learn when to never watch fox news.

I just find it stupid when they say: "Oh McCain is so great, he knew when the Russian, Georgia war started that the Russians were the invaders but Obama didn't it took him too long to figure out therefore he is not experienced."

And a group Obama supports does something ludacris and they judge Obama because of it. Obama probably hasn't even seen what they have done because it was just recent!

This gentleman brings up a fine point indeed. You're better off getting objective news from watching an episode of The Gong Show.

Well, I wasn't really watching it. The computer I am on just happens to be near my TV so when I logged onto my computer Fox was already on so i was watching it because I wanted to see what they had to say about the election.

There's your first problem. CNN is probably a few channels away, and it's better, although you could argue not by much.

I don't hear anyone complaining when Obama gets put on a pedestal by CNN and MSNBC and basically every other major media outlet. Why the double standard? If you're going to complain about Fox slamming Obama and building-up McCain, you should complain when the opposite happens just about everywhere else.

*Side note: I don't prefer either candidate and I'm not defending Fox News.

I don't know if I could find an article that praises Obama and points out all of McCain's flaws, unless it were an op-ed piece, just like I probably couldn't find an article that completely praises McCain and criticizes Obama. However, it is undeniable that Obama is receiving far more media coverage than McCain in general, and most of it is favorable in nature.

@Ark -- I don't see how that video is evidence of anything negative about Fox -- that report was a great example of quality journalism.

What's next...calling people racist if they don't support Obama?  Give me a break...I love it how it's ok to criticize McCain, but when one criticizes Obama, they're attacking him.

Well, McCain is old.....he can't fight back.

For the most part, I agree with you. Some people side with Obama out of fear of being called racist. Unlike most people, I don't think Obama is the second coming of Lincoln, but I think he's the lesser evil. But the biggest evil ever is Fox. That's just true.

Why?  Because Fox News has a very strict, yet instinctual, policy when it comes to any object even a centimeter to the left of Rush Limbaugh.

1. Identify Liberal Object.
2. Point at Liberal Object.
3. Taunt Liberal Object With Phrases Such As "Communist" and "Socialist". 
4. Douse Liberal Object In Kerosene.
5. Set Fire to Liberal Object. 
6. Kick Soaked, Flaming Object Down Elevator Shaft.
7. Throw A Single Hand-Grenade Into Elevator Shaft. 
8. Throw Another Hand-Grenade Into Elevator Shaft.
9. Disregard Collateral Damage.
10. Justify Actions by Claiming Liberal Object Would Have Caused "Destruction of America."

That's funny...replace each instance of the word "liberal" with "conservative" and you've just about described every other media outlet.

Fox isn't fair and balanced. A lot of other news stations aren't, either. Stick with PBS.

It's either because Fox is a media station (and thus is not objective, just like every single other media station) or because Obama's an idiot. Probably a mixture.

I was just about to say that.  I see shopped McCain videos and pictures coming out of the Internet's ass every day, I see McCain and his slip-ups in the news on the Internet and on the news, and even in the newspaper everyday.  Yet one negative word towards Obama and people freak?

Oh kids.

Too naive to listen to anyone other than Colbert or Stew
art. Perhaps FOX comes across as the most biased because they are the only conservative network. Other stations come across as more normal because in Hollywood, or in this case the media in general, liberal is normal.

Watch MSNBC, CNN, NBC, or read the New York Times long enough and you'll realize that while biased, FOX is more fair than other media outlets. They just stick out like a sore thumb because they are the only ones not sucking Obama's... well actually I won't go there.

Actually, Fox News is extremely biased when you compare it to other more professional non-American news outlets such as the BBC. You've got to be retarded if you can't see the disgusting bias machine that is Fox News.

That's interesting, because the BBC admitted long ago that they are very Liberal-slanted on matters of politics and religion. They're just more subtle about it.

Please provide a link from a trust worthy news site. I've only heard this about the Israel-Palestine conflict back in the 90s and early 00s.
