FOX News: "Fair and balanced" because they say so! A brief but shocking compilation from the documentary: "OUTFOXED: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism" http://www.outfoxed.org/ As Rupert Murdoch's 'war on journalism' hits new lows, droves of disgruntled employees are confessing their many misdeeds, brought upon by the Soviet-Union-esque environment they faced at FOX News. Watch how FOX executives dictate their bias by forcing reporters to follow memos that predetermine what they can say and how they should say it. Rupert Murdoch has decided that the best approach to journalism is to parade opinions dressed-up as News. The reason is simple: No one can disprove an opinion, and therefore, credibility is easier to maintain. Should they ever be caught lying, the legal process affords them protection under the First Amendment. We also have Congress to thank for the bright idea of passing a rider Bill (hidden) to deregulate the News Media. That's right; Corporate News entities can tell lies and distort the news as they please, and it's all perfectly legal. To the best of my knowledge, no country can have or maintain democracy without an honest Press or, at least, one that can be held accountable. But where is ours? Not convinced? "Florida Appeals Court ruled that there is absolutely nothing illegal in a major media organization lying, concealing or distorting information": http://www.netfeed.com/~jhill/RupertMurdoch.htm This video clip is a brief compilation from Robert Greenwald's documentary: "OUTFOXED: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism": http://www.outfoxed.org/

Nov 12, 2008 - I thought it was the job of the news to report the truth, they shouldn't have an opinion, that's not their job. Although their lies suit them, as this is the way which they get people to go after some nonsense, that way they can hide whats really going on in this county and its government. I'm sure that if something really important happened they would do their best to keep mum about it.

Nov 15, 2008 - It's nOT just the bush regime they lie for , they lie and spin for U.S. foreign policy and cut off any critic of illegal invasions, bombing , or killing of civilians by the U.S. Gov.

Nov 17, 2008 - Fux news has made it soooo obvious what they realy are that only idiots and morons continue to waste time watching it!

warequalsnofuture Says:

Nov 17, 2008 - Why do they let (e.g.) George Carlin talk on Fox in the first place if they don't let him say what he wants then. They tell everyone to shut up when one says the truth. FOX is a pure propaganda and manipulation channel. Shame on everyone whos working there without having a guilty conscience about it.

chriskardos Says:

Nov 17, 2008 - Ok, Fuck FOX News! better?

Nov 17, 2008 - SHOCKING! O_O

tangye5 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Gee, I have watched all the news networks for years and find fox to be the least biased.

mostlyawake Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Then you obviously haven't watched very closely. Checked all the "Outfoxed" videos and the like on YouTube. You think joking that a member of Fox news joking that Obama should be killed is "fair and balanced"? You think calling him a terrorist, who went to terrorist schools and greets his wife with a "terrorist fist jab" is good news reporting? Fox and Bill O'Reilly lied us into a war. It's an arm of Rove politics based on fear and hate.

tangye5 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - I still can not believe people that watch all news casts believe the crap that is being said about Fox News. Never I have I found another news sight that was even close to being balanced. Look at the senate race in MN. Not one vote found for the republican. Come on smell the coffee!!

Eikinkloster Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - "You think joking that a member of Fox news joking that Obama should be killed is "fair and balanced"?" She wasn't a member of Fox news, by the way. She was a guest, was commenting on HILLARY's attempt at humor about Obama assassination and had her own stupidity moment when she messed Obama for Osama. She apologized profusely the next day for her slip.

Eikinkloster Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - Well, if the employees aren't fair and balanced, the corporation has to set the tone. Reporters have simply ALL OTHER NETWORKS to spin liberalism. Is it possible that ONE channel giving voice to conservatives is one too many channels for liberals? Do you guys think America is Russia under Stalin? Do you guys want Pravda? Well, I know you do, just a rhetorical question.

mostlyawake Says:

Nov 19, 2008 - Liz Trotta is a member of Fox news. She is not a "guest." She was never fired from Fox News for her comments. And she is still a member of the staff and listed on their website as a member of their news team. And her comments are the tip of the iceberg in terms of the harm done by Fox News. Fox News, and Bill O'Reilly in specific, lied us into a war. But, I'm sure you have all the excuses in the world to justify in your mind why that's ok.

Nov 21, 2008 - You people crying about Fox News are pathetic, Fox News has a lot of conservatives yes, but it also has some awesome Democrats like Alan Colmes, Kristen Powers, Geraldine Ferrero and Bob Beckall
