iReport —

Moments ago I reviewed the Fox News website.  Every headline to the left:

 

What's L.A. Times Hiding?

Newspaper refuses to release videotape of Obama toasting 'friend and dinner companion' with questionable past

 

LAT: Allies of Palestinians See a Friend in Barack Obama

• Joe the Plumber: Obama Would Bring 'Death to Israel'

Rethinking Election Day

Obama's call to take off work Nov. 4 emboldens advocates who say elections should be a holiday or held on a weekend

 

• Obama Affinity to Marxists Dates Back to College Days

• Extreme Endorsements Could Sway Moderate Vote

• YOU DECIDE: Take the Day Off?

• FOX FORUM: Biden Blunders on Abortion

 

It is a sad commentary that a major news network would claim credibility as fair and balanced and promote one point of view almost exclusively.

 

I think it is fair to say that Fox News considers its audience to be Republican.  There can be no claim to fair and balanced journalism.  It is purely entertainment news.
