7. Actually, that's exactly what Republicans (and Fox) mean!
According to Republican/Conservative orthodoxy, if anything bad is said about the movement, it must be balanced by saying something bad about the other side, because if you don't balance it you are being biased. Also, if you were fair, you would NEVER say anything bad about the movement in the first place because there is nothing that is truly bad about the movement or those involved in it. So, to be fair you can say no evil about Republicans/Conservatives, and to be balanced if someone says something evil about them you must have someone saying something evil about the other side.
Simple, yes?
