Fox News has a lot of critics. Their slogan “fair and balanced” is laughable floating over a waving American flag. Sometimes these critics of Fox News get on the channel, but when pressed for specific examples of right wing bias, they can’t come up with any. Maybe it’s subtle. I don’t think so.

The mid-term election is in two weeks and Fox News is working hard to get the message out–The terrorists want the Democrats to win. John Gibson, commenting on the bloodiest month in Iraq since the war started, tells his viewers the upswing in violence is an effort to sway the American elections. “If Democrats who hate Bush and hate the war win, the insurgents win. America will set a date to get out, and jihad will have carried the day.” Bill O’Reilly has been saying the same thing for weeks.

“A vote for the Democrats is a vote for the insurgents.” Sounds fair to me.
