Back when leftist Ted Turner OWNED cable news, nobody complained. Fox News is only one of many news sources, and maybe the only one that isn't largely liberal in outlook. Even that little market segment galls many people on the left, especially when more people all the time like to listen to it. It is inconceivable to the left that maybe people like Fox News because they are more likely to hear an accurate report. At least some people have been paying attention to the falsification and misquoting crap that went down at the New York Times and other news sources.

An equal gutbusting laugh is the idea that Rupert Murdoch "biases" all the news in places like England, while a wholly-owned government appendage with a solid left-wing bias like the BBS is overlooked.
