fox news is no less valid than the NY Times or any other major news organization.
the only difference being, they tend to hold a more conservative view while the other 95% of news organizations are liberal biased.

The same Media Bias also kept the whole Jeff Gannon, whitehouse reporter/republican plant with fake name/gay porn entrepreneur. The media only cares about what will sell papers, and that's striking controversy with the powers that be. The thing is, controversy has to be easy to understand and sensationalist, and people are disinterested in things like campaign finances of a presidental hopeful that failed and a man using a psuedonym to change the course of presidental press conferences. It doesn't make people buy stuff.
Republicans are just the ones to complain about media bias the most cause they're usually the ones doing the stupid sensationalist things

While the direct news itself isn't that bad, and veers to a slightly-right-of-middle viewpoint, the commentary is way off in la-la land. My old roommate, who was a classical Republican and a devout Catholic, referred to Fox News as "Entertainment that appeals to my dirty conservative side". I don't have a large problem with the news reporting itself, but the commentators on that channel are notorious liars and often pull facts out of their ass...

I don't see what the problem is since both sides have their own shitty bias to listen too, and middle ground is available.

Yeah... he may have been biased, but how many times was he caught knowingly lying (As in, at the time, he knew better but lied anyways), and when he's reported something as factually incorrect, how many times has he shirked the blame or claimed he never said *Issue in question*?
I see your Dan Rather, and I raise you with an O'Reilly:
