Unless I am mistaken, the major national Fox News is the most watched news station in the country.  Pretty good for a news organization that isn't even available in all markets.




Maybe we have a misunderstanding, I don't watch CNN. I just used it as an example that people trust fox over all the others and I don't see why. I've stopped watching almost all of the mainstream news due to it not being accurate about anything important. I've said my bit and we are taking this thread way off topic so if you wish to keep discussing it then start a different thread or message me and I will be more than happy to keep talking about it.

Yeah, a misunderstanding.  I took it you might be trying to point out CNN as a more honest news organization.   They are all biased.  Some much more so than others.   People tend to slam or denigrate one organization typically just because that programs bias doesnt match theirs.    Silly to do that, better to just accept that they all do it, and your preference is for another show.

FWIW,

I may have counted wrong but CBS was on there just as many times as fox news.  Seriously I don't see the problem with them.  I think too many confuse the "comentator" portion with the actual news portion.  Alas its allways best to get your news from several sources or one may report to you that the DD214 posted on page one of this thread to be accurate.
