MSNBC Left wing??? My gosh... Ever watch Scarborogh?? Makes most of the Fox guys look moderate. And remember MSNBC had Michael Savage for a while too. Anyone say ing MSNBC has a liberal bias is smoking crack.

Can't say I hate Fox. Heck I can even say a couple good things about them. On presenting news, Fox is pretty up to date with big stories. Often they're more on top of a story than the other cable news channels.

On the opinion stuff.... well some is tolerable but much more is seriously biased. IMHO Hannity and O'Reilly are Idiots. I do like watching the Beltway boys., even though I know those two guys have a bias in their opinion that doesn't match my own most of the time. Carl Thomas is interesting somtimes and I also find some of the business shows on Fox informative. (Gotta know where the neo-cons are putting their money these days) Some of the special interest stuff is OK as well. But when it come to the serious political opinion stuff Fox's bias is legendary. And there is just way too much of it infesting their news. Even when they try to stage the facade of "Fair and Balanced" and bring in a liberal it's almost always a weenie Alan Combs like person or a clown voiced Susan Estridge type, never a fireplug James Carville type or even a thought provoking Mark Shields type.

I guess what bothers me more is people who shut themselves off to all other news sources but Fox based on perceptions or being coached that other news sources aren't worth watching because of their bias. When you've got someone here saying they won't watch MSNBC because its too left wing, you just know that person is not too well informed.

I overspoke when I said MSNBC was liberal because they have several right wingers, a little too far right for me!
Fox uses James Carvell (caffine Jimmie) as a guest analyst from time to time, but only problem with him is he is better at overtalking people than O'Reilly could ever be! I say Fox has the most diverse group of guests and analyst of all the networks.
