Fox has some really bad offenses but then their news segments are more straight up and they have a few people who advocate more balanced opinions. MSNBC has nothing to balance out the left slant, as far as I've seen- and their juvenile behavior is obviously playing to a certain audience (Fox has it's own version of such demographic appeal with it's sexy female hires.)

I wasn't raising anything, just suggesting that Fox News doesn't have a claim to anything just because CNN and MSNBC appears to have deteriorated.

Which Fix Noise have you been viewing? Anyone or anything that promotes phony 'protests' 24/7 for a week and a half on ALL it's shows is not journalism, let alone professional, except in the sense that the Noise commentators are handsomely paid to shill their propaganda. And personally, I thought the double entendres on CNN and MSNBC were hilarious, which certainly wasn't the only humor associated with sociopaths ginned up to phony outrage by Fix'd News.

I guess I saw the tea party reaction a little differently, as most of CNN's coverage seemed aimed at using it as an attack against their top competitor, Fox. Their motivation for discrediting the tea parties seemed to be to use it as a reason to convince viewers that Fox was in the tank for the GOP since Fox promoted the rallies. It's true though that some of their commenters went to the junior high level with their criticisms, though that wasn't as prevalent on CNN as it was at MSNBC.
