"When they're done with Fox and talk radio, do you really think that they'll leave you alone, if you want to ask a tough question?...Do you really believe, after [Obama] takes out the number one news network, do you really think that this man is then not going to turn on you...to take you out? If you believe that...you've missed the point of many brutal dictators. You've missed the point on how they always start."
-- Glenn Beck to NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN, on White House calling Fox "the communications arm of the Republican party"

The number one news network for people who like to whine that they lost an election and avoid critical thinking. There was a great segment on Daily Show last night. There was a march on Washington to get Don't Ask, Don't Tell repealed like Obama promised: 75,000 people showed up and Fox didn't send out a reporter/camera crew. The best thing is that Fox has a Washington bureau overlooking the Mall: all they had to do was look out a window.

Yup, that's modern journalism for ya! The fact that you're the biggest doesn't mean you're the best.

Perhaps if Fox behaved less like the communications arm of the Republican Party, they could avoid such accusations. At least most of the other organizations don't claim to be "fair and balanced" while not being so.
