Re: Fox News: 'Liberals Are Wrecking America, But You Decide'
Andy commented: "Give an example of a story that Fox News ran on purpose to show "Liberals are wrecking America..."
It's not really what they choose to feature, it's more in what they purposely choose not to feature, but I guess that can be said of any biased media outlet. Judging by how Fox News chooses to utilize their on-air minutes, you'd think that the Michael Jackson trial and Natalee Holloway's disappearance in Aruba are more important than many actual world events that don't make the latest headlines. Sure, many Fox News viewers obviously want to see that stuff over and over again, but that's not really reporting the news. That's simply pandering to an audience and avoiding stories or issues that challenge their viewpoints.
