a news channel...

What exactly distinguishes Fox News from say the National Enquirer?

Am I missing something?

How many awards have they won? We all know how silly Broadcast Journalists are since they have so many awards, how many rewards for excellence in broadcasting has Fox News won?

A quick look at the Emmy's shows none for 2009.

Maybe someone could explain what makes Fox News a "journalism" except self-proclamation.

And why is the Daily Show the only media outlet pointing out how crazy Fox News really is...

2. Self-proclamation is what they're all about...
Sick bastards, all of them...
