but if fox is far right, where does that leave Breitbart? Most would say that Breitbart is more partisan, but you can't just make it "far far right". A scalar with a limit means that as you add new values towards the limit, other values have to shrink towards the root to compensate. Fox was "far right" in 2004 when politics was generally quite centrist, but now that politics has become much more polarised on both sides, fox is still fairly centrist but new, more partisan sources have come along. Fox's level of partisanship hasn't changed, the environment has, leading Fox's "relative partisanship" to go down.

In that time period, the biggest change has been CNN making a dramatic move to the left. They went from near the center to being out with MSNBC, which was already well to the left and moving left. With that, we lost the closest thing we had to unbiased mainstream media. It's pretty disturbing that Fox is now the least biased. I miss the old CNN. :-(
