Something I noticed about JTs predictions
Thing is Paul, Fox does present the left wing opinion, they give them alot more creedence than the rest of the networks do conservatives. The only reason people see Fox as being far to the right is that everything else is so far to the left. As I mentioned before though, I don't think it matters. Left and right in this country are two prongs of the same attack on our liberties. I find it telling that no one in the media gives any of the other parties any face time at all. Have you ever heard the libertarian position aired on a major network, I never have. If that one in particular got out, I think the face of politics would change.

TV is considered less a discretionary choice of the public, and the airwaves are regulated as much as, say, shipping and airlines. If you put a political viewpoint on TV, you are required to balance it with access to the opposing opinion-- a point lost on an outfit such as Fox.
