If you think Fox is the most biased news network, you clearly aren't watching any of the others. I say this not in defense of Fox, but because news coverage with slant in some direction is positively ubiquitous.

If you think you're looking at something that's unbiased, it's only because that news outlet matches your own world view more closely.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say that it's impossible to produce news that's entirely without bias. So I wish they'd stop pretending to be even-handed, and just come clean with what their editorial views are. It would make our job of filtering a lot easier.




Your last point is actually why Fox News is in the too-long list of news sites I read. I have a rough idea of their biases, like Al Jazeera.
