Why FCC should reign in Fox News
It is heartening that the Times called foul on a journalistic infraction
by Fox and that the writer at least recognizes that Fox has a political agenda, but it is not encouraging that the Times editorialists continue to view Fox as a club member in good standing, albeit one that plays by its own rules more often than not. Journalists should be the last cohort to be fooled by a political operation that disguises itself as a news outlet, and the journalism establishment ought to be leading the charge for rousting the impostors. Who can stop Fox? Not “liberal bloggers,” though we will do our best. And certainly not the government, which is rightly prevented from censoring Fox — even a propaganda outlet has the right to free speech. It’s up to the journalism establishment to put its own house in order. But, as the Times editorial shows, journalists at the loftiest perches of the profession have yet to recognize the peril Fox presents. Unless and until mainstream journalists “muster the outrage” to unmask Fox for what it is, once and for all, Fox will continue to pose an existential threat, both to the Fourth Estate, as Fox’s financial success accelerates the death knell for objective journalism — and to the body politic, which is beginning to weaken under the barrage of Fox’s right-wing propaganda, which is now entering its 15th year. Think about it. If instead of Fox, these polls had found that the Times, Time Magazine, ABC News or any other mainstream outlet was tricking out its reporting to further a political agenda, not only would heads roll inside the organization, the journalism establishment would be up in arms. And yet, faced with evidence that Fox is undermining the entire profession by promulgating propaganda, the establishment’s collective reaction is a shrug.

If you disagree with a channel's politics or think their reports are unreliable DON'T WATCH IT. If enough of the viewers who are monitored by the rating's agencies agree with you the channel you despise so much will be forced to change their policies or shut down. Also note that FCC authority over cable/satellite channel content is significantly narrower than the agency's authority over direct broadcaster to home antenna content. I have no problem with their content. I have a big problem with them being able to characterize it as "news". They lie, which is completely legal with a few exceptions. I'd like a rule prohibiting them from labeling their "lies" as "news". That's all. This is a matter of urgent importance as the country is rapidly slipping into complete domination. There's that famous "freedom and liberty" crap hard at work. |

I have problems with MSNBC, but they do not lie and they do not call themselves "news". BWHAHAHAHH!! *Don't try telling that to Chris Mattews! They fastidiously maintain journalistic credibility and proved it recently by suspending Olberman and Scarborough for financial support of candidates. They broke a MSNBC rule. It only proves that Olberman and Scarborought are stupid. *How many Fox "News" people have been punished for supporting one side over the other. They don't have that rule, so none. To compare the 2 is ludicrous. MSNBC are "truth to power" muckrakers in the great tradition of American journalism; Fox News is first and foremost the mouthpiece of corporate America (the power that needs to hear the truth) and defenders of old money. You are a clueless. Truth to power, LOL! Fair and Balanced -is- FAIR and BALANCED !
