Why are we comparing Fox News (aka "Crazy like Fox News" ;) ) with the BBC though? Compare CNN with Fox. I have to admit I'm not up to date on the latest in US media but at least CNN used to be non-stop bashing and misrepresentation just like Fox. Agenda has come before facts for US media for a long time and it's definitely not been one sided.
- johng 1y agoI agree with you. I watch both channels and see it from both sides. I have noticed CNN getting a bit better lately. They are actually challenging both sides with tough questions.
- mk89 1y agoWhere is it any different? Some are more obvious than others. At least with Fox you know where they stand and you know you need to verify your source all the time. It's way better like that. Other media companies are very subtle, so much that you almost never feel the need to verify. And when you actually take the time to verify it, you are like WTF. I will never ever forget how the 2015 "refugees crisis" was being sold in Germany in the "very neutral" and "our job is to share facts, not to tell you how to think" media. But I have other countless examples. The most recent examples are about how "bad Trump" is. I don't see any solution to this, except for "always take the time to verify/compare it on your own". Don't let others do that job for you.
