Re: Fair and Balanced.
This is not 'news' and does not represent itself as 'news'.
The biggest problem with Fox News detractors is their inability, or refusal, to distinguish 'news' from 'opinion'.
Fox broadcasts both liberal and conservative commentators. Geraldo Rivera, Alan Colmes (formerly) and now even Juan Williams are only a few of the liberal pundits and 'contributors' featured by the so-called 'Faux News' network.
Sean Hannity is a conservative commentator. He has never claimed to be an unbiased journalist, unlike alleged 'journalists' from CBS, NBC, MSNBC et al.
The opinions in this piece, and those of his 'contributors', are not 'news' and to portray them as 'news' is simply dishonest. The one hard fact, the USA TODAY poll featuring 64% of those surveyed blame Washington, not Wall Street for this economic disaster, cannot be explained away by liberal spinmeisters.
You may disagree with the opinions featured on Fox, just as many disagree with just about anyone on MSNBC, but you can't argue with the fact that their viewership dwarfs every other cable network.

It just doesn't matter, guys. Please understand. We didn't need the media to get this thing going. We don't need them to finish it. It simply doesn't matter. The mainstream media, whether it be fox news or cnn or the times union, is obsolete. We're leading the movement to replace it.

Re: Fair and Balanced.
'...replace it'...With the Fairness Doctrine, perhaps?
Is MSNBC obsolete? Chris Matthews, Al Sharpton, Rachel Maddow and Al Schulz...are they obsolete?
Didn't think so. That's because they're on the far left of the political spectrum; the same side as ninety-seven per cent of the Occupy mobs.
Anything that 'replaces' the mainstream media will be more of the same warmed over liberal fringe lunatics that populate left-wing shill networks like MSNBC (which, incidentally, is ALSO a 'corporation'.
