3.0 out of 5 stars Good reason to buy this, 23 Jul 2004

By A Customer

The Fox Network is the mouthpiece of the conservative right. The channel runs under the slogan "Fair and Balanced" but is anything but. OK, so nearly every news organisation has it's slant but when facts are so deliberately distorted to prop up one man's agenda, you have to say that the news stops being news and becomes entirely opinion or worse, propaganda.

When the previous reviewer accused this film of being "librel propaganda" they failed to understand that Fox is the top outlet for right-wing propaganda. It is not a news organisation - it is a political tool used to bash those with centrist and leftist views.

Don't like the war? You must be for the terrorists. Don't like corporate greed? You must be a commie. The list goes on.

The facts in the film stand for themselves and if you cannot accept that, you should probably keep your head stuffed in the sand.

4.0 out of 5 stars a LIBERAL response., 12 Aug 2004

By	J. Trumble (France) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A very good, thoughtful film - it's great to have the smug neo-con commentators exposed for the bullying attack-dogs and government-apologists that they are. Finally their crass bullying and downright lying is exposed to the world - great stuff. By the way, we should all be very wary of anyone who thinks it fine to scream at a son who has lost his father in a terrible attack. Even if the kids views are not acceptable (although they seem pretty valid to me), he still has the right to air them without being shouted down and man-handled out of the studio. It's funny that mere opinions have become so threatening to the ultra-right. And by the way, I am not a liberal - yes, that's right - it's spelt
L-I-B-E-R-A-L.

4.0 out of 5 stars just incase, 30 Jul 2004

By A Customer

incase you didn't pick it up from watching fox 'news', this doc. leaves little doubt about fox's unobjective journalism-objectivity being a prerequisite to reporting the news.
however, all media broadcast 'news' has its editorial biases, including the 'liberal' cnn. anyone serious about an interest in the media orientated news studies should consider starting with chomsky's manufacturing consent dvd.

also: UK viewers please remember-murdoch also owns sky news!
