the local Fox News outlet is so different from their national affliation...

[WCGreen]

that you can almost hear the eyes roll when they have to show the Fox News spin on national issues...

The reason I bring this up is that they sponsor this great program of collecting school supplies for the kids that don't have enough paper, pencils, pens and what not for the opening bell...

They really step it up to be a real part of the community.

1. What network your station is affiliated with is all about business

not politics.

[WCGreen]

2. I know that but they still show the fox crap in Sunday mornings....

[Tunkamerica]

3. you have to. the contract stipulates you take all network programming.

4. Fox affiliate

Northeast Ohio That's a start

Channel 8?

5. K&R!

6. Local Fox stations often have the best local news coverage, oddly enough

Certainly in DC that's true -- also, the Washington Times (an otherwise odious conservative newspaper) has absolutely outstanding coverage of city politics.

8. Yes they do and

they never failed to cover code pink protests or anti war events here

7. The local news broadcasts do what the big 3 cable channels should do and that's to keep their bias

to themselves.

9. They still go on about "Fair and Balanced" and "We report

you decide." I can't stand to listen to that B.S. They say it over and over in their ads implying that there are no facts to any matter. That's purely tied to politics. I've never heard them apply their covert brainwashing to a story about, say, a house fire. "There was a fire on Green Bay's North side last night...or was there?" Covert brainwashing and bullshit.

11. Not this station...

They tend to keep it local. the CBS station is more red meat conservative.

10. Only if they are fox affiliates, Fox owns alot of their local stations

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Fox_television_affiliates_(table)

All the largest cities have stations owned and operated by Fox, these stations really really suck, as you get Fox bullshit both for national and local news.

12. Not a lot, 25 out of 175, and they're selling several from what I hear.
