Fox turned to crap years ago.. perhaps not as bad as cnn or manbc, but when they went hot chicks in miniskirts they lost their edge on actually reporting news as well..
“Hot chicks in miniskirts” is a form of production value. And it’s a documentable fact that efforts spent on production values are efforts not devoted to actual content.

The same thing as spending all your time prettying up the HTML in a post, which can easily take more time than it took to compose the reply you wanted to post.

About the only channels worth anything anymore are the business news channels…
Business news, at least theoretically, are about substantive news good or bad.

Commercial general-interest news, OTOH, are heavily biased to the negative.

Imagine that. We are in the midst of what may prove to be the biggest news event of the 21st century and yet CNN can't even crack the Top 20 during this time.

Poetic justice right there.

I can still remember watching Peter Arnett and Bernard Shaw during the 1991 Gulf War. CNN was still relevant at that time. But that was a long time ago.
