That’s an over-characterization about Fox News. Most of the posters I know personally on here don’t watch it and those who do don’t post here anymore.
I’m still not sure how anyone can consider NPR as anything other than a liberal slant. I listen regularly and people could easily mistake their commentary for hard news.
No over-characterization at all...every single person I have talked to who literally quotes the RWRE Faux News script says they don't listen to Fox. Where are these literal quotes coming from then? It is the bunch I listed. And let's not forget Breitbart and Drudge.
As for NPR, we have touched on that before - yeah, I agree, they have a socially liberal slant - if one considers a liberal "slant" as being biased toward the principal and ideal of "The People" mentioned so often in the US Constitution but so often slung around by the RWRE when they intend to confuse, spin, and bias - you know the ideal that The People are the important part of this country. Not special interests. Not corporate interests. Not elitists. But they and PBS also are the ONLY ones who go out of their way to present both sides in a fair and balanced fashion. And perhaps in depth coverage of topics does confuse many whose only idea and experience of "hard news" coverage is the monosyllabic soundbite of Faux News. PBS also confuses many in similar fashion due to the much broader coverage given many topics.
