I expect fox to now slide waaaay left.

Shep. Smith seems to be the most closeted of the group...

It's called a "BUG"
The ABC network nicknamed their bug the "meatball" (my husband works for ABC)

Mrs. Jennings, may we presume?

;-P

Listen to the asides of virtually any of the hosts and reporters, and there is a significant conservative slant.

Got any examples?

As for myself, I've tried to document pro-conservative comments on Fox, but can't find many.

On the other hand, I think we as viewers had become so accustomed to GOP bashing on network news over the years that a channel (Fox) which plays it straight just SEEMS like they are slanting right.

I listen to KSFO talk radio on an ABC station. The host, Lee Rodgers, introduces the once an hour abc news with a shrug, calling it the "biased abc news" They then point out how the wording is biased. They also love to point our gramatical and pronunciation gaffs. Lee says he will quit if they tell him to say or not say anything and that includes his comments on the network news.

What I can't STAND is how often the news media inject a presidential response to stories that have nothing to do with the President. This disease was out of control during Clinton's terms but then Clinton egged it on by trying to make every world event about himself.

If there's an earthquake somewhere or violence in Qatar, I don't really give a flip what the US President thinks about it and I think it illustrates the laziness of our present journalism corps to try to make it so.

The thing that makes FOX so popular is not that it is pro-Bush, but that it is pro-American.

This is what I most enjoy about FoxNews. Each host seems to be proud of being an American and to live in this country. That versus the hosts on NPR, MSNBC, CNN and others who always seem to apologize for being from this country and constantly jump on the blame America bandwagon.

"Bug" ok.

I thought I heard it (on FNC) referred to as a 'frog'.
(better get my hearing checked. all those years of the amp on "11" must have caused some damage)

Yep. So true. I *almost* hate to point this out, but Bubba is looking quite bad these days. I usually don't watch ANY awards show, but did so last night with the Globes (for a while). (Wanted to see if Clint Eastwood would win something). Anyway, just when you think Hollywood can control themselves from inserting politics into EVERYTHING, there was a tape from Bubba asking for money for the Tsunami victims. Okay, fine....but of course, he mentions himself. The shot of Bubba looked like they were filming through a 'softening' lens, but heck, he looked FLAKEY. Not 'nutcase' flakey, I mean, REAL FLAKES coming off his face. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm....

I can't meet your hand...but Hannity on ABC talk radio then on to Savage after; all on XM, is not too bad either. :)
