Fox has been biased, and they've been getting shit on the entire time. Problem is most conservatives who watch it don't really care. Unfortunately, CNN has hurt their brand by being relatively disingenuous about the Trump thing, and then threatened to dox and release the info of a random internet shitposter.

Everyone has known for years that Fox News is biased. CNN's bias has just started being brought to light over the last year or so, so it's still in the process of sinking to Fox News' level.

At least Fox News doesn't stage fake protests. Fox has always been a bit biased, but I find them to be much more truthful than CNN. CNN pushed the Russian narrative too much because they can't get over Clinton's bitter defeat.

Going after a meme maker was a new low and turned them into a complete joke.

Indeed. Why do leftists keep giving the WashPost and NYT a pass for spreading fake news about Russia-Trump while harping on FOX NEWS for presenting coverage that goes against their preferred anti-America narrative?

What? People have made fun of Fox for literally the last decade at least because despite the "fair and balanced" slogan they never really attempted to hide their clear right leaning bias.
However a lot of the same people who made fun of Fox News unironically watched CNN and thought they were better than that but really CNN has two modes which is either shilling for the establishment left all the way like the other side of the coin of Fox News, or where they go full neutrality bias and they try to pretend they're unbiased and objective.

Nobody has taken Fox News seriously for a long time, but people are just now starting to realize CNN and most mainstream media in general is just ratings fueled, biased, entertainment > information, circle jerk shit too, which is a good thing.

The way that partisanship works is you wait for the opposing team to make one mistake and then focus in on it with tunnel vision. From there, you can either willfully ignore when your team does the same thing, or simply dust your hands off and call it even. Partisans always leap at the first opportunity to become a single-issue voter, and they apply this mindset more broadly to other judgment calls as well.

At the same time... let's also be clear that CNN doesn't get a free pass on this just because other organizations are much, much worse. A proportionate response is due.

Nobody is denying that Russia tried to hack the election, not even Fox News.

What's fake is CNN, TrashPo and other liberal rags claiming collusion when there was none. All the dumb liberals lapped while they were on their knees.

If you trust Putin more than your own countrymen, there is a serious problem.

I don't trust any of them, but I doubt Russia actually hacked anything to change election results.

CNN, and the countless other malevolent agents of influence over this country (Bill Maher, Daily Show, Stephen Colbert, MSNBC etc etc etc) told you Fox was fake news.

Have you ever actually watched Fox? Bill Maher, Immortal Technique, Stephen Colber, Jon Stewert, when I was in high school, all these people told me that Fox was nothing but a bunch of racist liars. The George Zimmerman trial, and it's coverage of it on CNN and their ilk made me turn to Fox and what I found was not a racist hivemind, but instead a network that was the only major network to fairly cover this trial. Fuck CNN...

Every news sources is biased. That's a fact. However, they try to keep up appearances. CNN has not only given up all pretenses, they insulted Americans and doubles down on that they are selling fake news. Ice cream scoops? Typos? Handshakes? If that's all CNN has, then two things is true: they are entertainment news and Trump is actually doing a decent job

I suppose I should have added they they indeed have seriously gone off the rails this election and especially since Trump took office. I'm glad their ratings have tanked as a result.
