Is Fox News Any Different?

It's pretty commonplace for CNN and MSNBC to get blasted on here for reporting "fake news," but what is the opinion on Fox News? It seems to me they have misrepresented the truth as much as any other network over the years. I don't watch very much infotainment, but I always hear cries from both sides of the aisle about the ridiculous reporting done by the opposition, and I've done my own research on media bias. I guess I'm really just perplexed why anyone would trust anything reported on the infotainment networks, regardless of the bias they portray.

Was that Fox News that was caught 3 times last week reporting fake news?

Fox News tried to end Trump about 35 different times during the nomination process

Fox News sucks, but CNN and MSNBC, in the past two years or so, have gone into a different stratosphere.

No it’s not

I don't really watch much of their programming. The only things I consistently watch are Tucker, The Greg Gutfeld show, and Media Buzz.

I don't see them "making up" news like some other media. They might get wrong what is reported to them and FOX then turns around and reports it but they don't instigate fake news like CNN and MSNBC do.

I stopped watching Fox during the election and have not returned. The news agency no longer has my patronage.
That said, I still don't think they rise to the level of CNN in blatantly misleading viewers.
One is worse than the other, far worse, but I don't trust any of them completely.

Every news outlet sucks equally, has an agenda, and is generally not worth watching

I rarely see Fox having to make a retraction and CNN does it every other day.

Ok - Let me consult my Directv guide.....
Fox and Friends is very CNN -like in that they give the worst possible interpretation of anything off the Republican reservation. The more Brian Kilmeade, generally the better. The opposite holds for Peter Doocy.
America’s News Room is fair and balanced.
Happening Now is fair and news oriented .
Outnumbered is generally fair and covers a wide range of stories .Honestly I just hear it in the background but the host is very fair and always respectful of guests and other viewpoints.
The Daily Briefing with Dana Perino is fair.
Then Shepard Smith gets an hour of Progressive Agitprop and it’s basically like you are watching CNN.
Then the very solid Neil Cavuto .
Followed by The Five which is opinion panel. This is also very CNN-like and gimmicky.
Special Report is the best hard news on television.
Martha MacCallum is fair and balanced.
Then three hours of Conservative opinion with guests from across the spectrum presented from the Conservative POV.
Is that fair ?

Focus on the straight news anchors instead of talking heads. Blitzer, cooper and the like are much more bias than Brett Baer. Shep Smith (toddy) is downright left leaning.

Fox is the same as cnn, msnbc, cbs and abc. It's propaganda to keep us complacent. The current state of the msm is an attempt to subdue our independent thinking.
Most media is that way, be it online or physical like newspapers.
Best to try and get raw information and come to our own conclusions. It's why I support groups like wikileaks.

You can always tell when leftists are getting their asses kicked when they play the “they alldo it” card.
Yep that is logical. Several blatant lies inducing daily leftist circle jerks here that peter out before the and of the day logically leads to the focus on whether fox does it too.
What miserable wretches

In other words, you don't know shite, but have an opinion.
