Brit Hume has read several items over the wire during this war and then came back to correct himself after more details emerged. Bret Baier, the Pentagon correspondent has also read from the wire only to have to come back and correct himslef and others after more details/information emerged. And I could go on and on. I agree, but making blanket statement against Fox news because *you* feel they're more biased than the others is ridiculous. Maury |
Fox makes it clear they have an agenda. The others at least hid it, and descretely put their agenda in.
As far as corrections go, I can say I watched a good 40 hours in the past month of Fox News, I consider it a good alternative to CNN. Never did I hear a correction... and the corrections on their website keep moving around. Stories disappear into thin air.
And that's besides the fact that they only show/tell what the people want to hear. They make it clear that the US is the Knight in shining armor.... when in fact, while some towns have accepted our troops... many others have taken arms against them... but Fox sadly doesn't show us that. They simply call these civilians that take up arms "repubican guards", and add them to the military count.
