The Hatred Of Fox News - 100 Days Of Anti-Obama
And some FACTS (yes FACTS, look that word up O'Reilly and Beck)
The Project on Excellence in Journalism report in 2006 showed that 68 percent of Fox cable stories contained personal opinions, as compared to MSNBC at 27 percent and CNN at 4 percent.
A 2007 Pew Research Center poll of viewer political knowledge indicated that Fox News Channel viewers scored 35% in the political high-knowledge area. This was slightly lower than CNN (41%) and The Daily Show (54%)
A study by the Program on International Policy Attitudes, reported that viewers of Fox News were more likely than viewers of other news networks to hold three misperceptions:
* 67% of Fox viewers believed that the "U.S. has found clear evidence in Iraq that Saddam Hussein was working closely with the al Qaeda terrorist organization" (Compared with 56% for CBS, 49% for NBC, 48% for CNN, 45% for ABC, 16% for NPR/PBS).
* The belief that "Iraq was directly involved in September 11" was held by 33% of CBS viewers and only 24% of Fox viewers, 23% for ABC, 22% for NBC, 21% for CNN and 10% for NPR/PBS
* 35% of Fox viewers believed that "the majority of people [in the world] favor the U.S. having gone to war" with Iraq. (Compared with 28% for CBS, 27% for ABC, 24% for CNN, 20% for NBC, 5% for NPR/PBS)
