Both groups don't want honest reporting - they want things spun to back up their view of the world. The reporters are just giving their customers what they want.

That Fox has more Republican viewers than ALL other news sources is no surprise. That they have more Independent viewers is not really a surprise either. But the fact that they have more Democrat viewers than any other source is both surprising and encouraging.
And Fox did not cheer Bush's spending during the last administration. They lambasted Bush just as hard as they now do Obama in re: spending. The difference is Obama's inexperience, reckless spending, waffling, and already failed policies, lends Fox much more material to be concerned about..

Once again, ALL the media is SUPPOSED to question all Government actions. If Fox is overboard, its because they are carrying the load for all the 4th estate.
