you say fox is a blatent violation based on your 20 year...then what is msnbc????.......be honest
You seem to want to debate "bias" in reporting, that isn't what is at stake here. I have never read or heard any of the above named news outlet's calling on viewers or readers to attend a political event or protest, I have never read, heard or witnessed any reporters, producers or writers of the above mentioned news outlets promote a political event or protest, and I have NEVER seen, heard or witnessed the active participation of any reporter, writer, producer of any news organization in a political event or protest. Never!
it doesn't bother Me,I'm glad FNC is around! It's nice that a news network is here that isn't biased against Republicans and Conservatives and the things that We believe in.
Becasue, it is a free country, and because they have rights, and because they can raise money for members of the Jackass party as well. Why are YOU allowed to raise money... Doesn't it put a wrenching feeling in your gut to even use the word "allowed"? We are not children that are allowed to certain things by our parents, we are the owners of the country, and we do what we please save for those things that we, through the legilslative process, have deemed improper and passed laws against.
You seem to have brought a pair of snowshoes to a surfing beach in that the concept of America is completely lost on you.

Exactly! Would the Tea Party even exist today if it were not for the promotion by Fox?

I don't have the slightest problem with Fox being biased, but once again, that isn't what is being discussed here. Either you are a news organization or you aren't.

Yep. The vast majority of Tea Party organization and planning is done online, via social networking. And you guys thought you owned that medium, didn't you...
Fox is just taking advantage of a niche market that the other networks chose to leave unfulfilled. It's good business. But you probably wouldn't understand anything about that...

Would the national disgrace be President if it weren't for the legacy media (NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, LA Times, NY Times) refusing to print the whole story about him, while at the same time, attacking Palin mercilessly, even though she was far better qualified to be Presdent than the entire Democrat ticket (had actual Executive experience as the Governor of Alaska)
And to answer your "question" directly, Yes, ,almost certainly.

Why bother with doing it through funding when you can deliver your agenda as news. To suggest reporters are not going to impart their biases into stories is ludicrous, it's human nature. Some may be more objective that others but you are going to have bias to some degree. I follow the Global Warming debate quite a bit and see it all the time. Why else would it take 14 days before it is picked up by the national networks? If that was a cigarette company or Exxon it would have been front page day one.
