With all due respect, this is just nonsense. Fox is openly antagonistic to the left - openly so. Derisive, disrespectful, jingoistic, etc. They don't make even the slightest pretense otherwise. CNN at least makes an attempt to show the other side. PBS and NPR are also much more variegated than you give them credit for - not to mention reaching a far smaller audience. If you like Fox, fine. If you agree with them, that's your right. But don't pretend to yourself or to anyone else that they are anything except, essentially, the TV arm of the Republican Party.
