Media Bias

The quality of newscasts has dropped through the floor. The only factor keeping me from throwing objects at my tv in disgust is the amount of money it costs. How people can watch the pure drivel that FOX broadcasts and accept it as anything approaching fact appalls me. I'm an effing republican and I just don't get it. Do people just like hearing their own viewpoints coming out of the television so much that they are not only completely willing, but EAGER, to completely suspend disbelief and nod along, slack-jawed with whatever talking head is spouting off? It's pathetic.
