Do you think Fox is conservative? You'll avoid that question also unless you want to lose another point.
I don't really care how the parties campaign. If the people are stupid enough to believe these things (that black churches will burn and that Bibles will be banned), then they deserve the people they elect.

Yes. I do believe Fox News is conservative. That's why every conservative prefers it to over all the other major news stations.

Can you provide one example of how their news is conservative?

Yes. If you go to foxnews.com, all they do is attempt to link the CBS memo thing directly to Kerry.
Not to mention that every commentator they let have free reign on the channel is conservative.

I would call that reporting (which ABC, NBC, and other liberal news outlets are reporting). Just because the news is bad for you doesn't mean it's conservative. Fox has the same exact news as everyone else.
Nonetheless, you shouldn't mistake absence of liberal bias as being conservative.

But so do independents...
Fox will be percieved as conservative by lefties just as CBS/NBC/ABC/PBS/CNN/MSNBC will be percieved as liberal by righties..but Fox grows in popularity despite a stable "50/50" Repub/Dem US population mix BECAUSE the middle of the road types see it as striking a better balance than all the alternatives.

I wouldn't say its conservative, unless telling "the rest of the story" is conservative, then it is

I missed this the first time around... Originally posted by daenku32:

Does this mean that CNN, CBS, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, and pretty much everything but Fox is liberal, because liberals watch those stations?
