As for the score being "thousands-1" in favor of Dems, I don't think that's quite true. Talk radio is dominated by conservatives. Print media is dominated by center-lefties. Most networks are slightly left of center, but Fox is far right of center. In my view, it's pretty much a wash.

Finally, I never said I was offended by Fox News. I am not, but it seems like you are offended by criticism of Fox News. Nor am I offended by the left-of-center press. I prefer truly "fair and balanced" reporting, which is why I generally look to PBS, the BBC, and others for my news. I still watch some CNN and Fox News and read the NYT and WP, but I take everything they say with a big fat grain of salt.

PS - We should probably start a new thread if we are going to continue
this discussion.

PBS is about a far left as you say FOX is far right. They are the most Bias of the media out there. Fox has right leaning people who have there shows but they say they are right wing and do not act as if they are media. Now the FOX news is pretty even keel if you ask me but people confuse their news to their shows like "The ORally Factor". Which is no secert is right leaning. Its these national news channells which lean left but act as if they are fair news outlets just reporting the story. If they would not hide behind the "I'm just a reporter reporting" and tell us what they are then all would be good. I read somewhere that like 90% of the media votes Dem.
