Fox News and Al Jazeera. Actually, Al Jazeera have an English channel. I wonder if Fox are gonna make an Arabic channel.

The article's invalid. If Fox News was truly right-wing, it wouldn't lend nearly as much support to George W. as it has.

FAIR is biased.

Whether you feel like these sources are biased or not, the evidence is overwhelming. I don't know if Fox is the most biased in the world, but it definitely has a bias.

News flash - all media sources are biased.

Probably didn't need to add that, but there you go...

No you did, people are stupid enough to believe that channels like MSNBC are unbiased.

And CNN isn't biased towards liberals....They all are biased that is why you get your news from several outlets not one.

People are stupid enough to believe FOX News is "fair and balanced".

Very true.

Go to the Chinese google and look up Tiannemen square - not sure on spelling, then look it up on your normal version of google.

The article is slightly dated, but yes, Roger Ailes is a class A asshole.  He's a lot of the reason why the Republicans are able to win elections without having much of a platform to speak of.  It's Ailes's style of attack politics that renders neoconservatism an ideology without much foresight.  They're so busy attacking their opponents that they forget what they stand for....

On the other hand, Democrats made the same mistake back in 2004 by running Kerry.  No one really knew what he stood for because he just focused on not being Bush.

I guess the difference is that the Republicans are much better at "attack dog" politics, but that still doesn't seem to have done much for them when it comes to planning ahead in actual policymaking (like the lack of foresight shown during the aftermath of the invasion of Iraq).

At some point, both parties will need to realize that attacking your opponent is less important than defending your own views and actually having a clear message for the people.  Attack politics might win you a few elections, but it won't win things like the War on Terror.

No. It's official since it's been found by FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting), who are an independent national (US based) media watch group.

The fact that FAIR only report on US media outlets means the OP is slightly inaccurate. FOX is the most biased in the US, but not in the world.

So your saying FOX isn't touting the line for the right wing agenda? Or anything you read is horsey poo?

There's not such thing as a 100% unbiased News organization.  But you can say a few of them are less biased than the rest, and there you may include BBC for instance.
