3. Doesn't matter what anyone shows him.
He'll just deny it shows bias. This guy doesn't just drink the kool-aid, he makes it in the first place. Unfuckingbelievable.

4. It All Depends On How Onw Defines Bias
Before one starts to try to read all the attached links, keep in mind, it is all a game of semantics.

Truth, Justice or the American way

6. Even the Far Right CMPA says that Fox is biased Right
Prior to the election, the Extreme Right Wing media watchdog group the Center for Media & Public Affairs (CMPA) said that Fox was 5 or 6 times more likely to run negative stories on John Kerry than on George Bush. (I forgot the exact total, but it was in an article in the Hartford Courant by Liz Halloran) Of course, the CMPA did claim in their research that the other news networks were slightly biased towards Kerry and unfortunately, the Courant's headlines basically said something like "Study shows media biased towards Kerry" and didn't disclose the CMPA's extremist bias.

I turned off Fox News years ago.. and I still continue to refuse to watch your right-wing propagandi news station.
