I guess they don't since according to Nielsen Fox has the highest ratings of any network.
The days of blind news have come to an end.

yes Rosco Fox does have many NEWS shows as well as commentary shows, their overall ratings are off the charts, NBC has gone to the dogs and are in last place on ratings, CNN isn't to bad but MSNBC is boringggggggggggggg

so fox reporting and showing on how they are fixing the oil well is not news, but the same facts on another network is news since nothing fox does is news, lmao, ur so biased its funny, i dont watch fox much, but they report news like any network,but do have conservative commentary shows., mainly because those shows get great ratings, and is why fox is number one in the ratings, just my opinion here but its that the strength of the conservative shows will reflect in the november elections,

just a few people answers is Fox really news
Do you believe that Fox News is actually news?
Even Fox themselves say that out of the 24 hours a day of scheduled shows, only 9 hours of it is devoted to reporting actual news. Which means that roughly 63% of their programming is not considered news. All of their biggest drawing shows - Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Greta Van Susteren, etc. - are NOT news. (Claim Fox). They say that their news programming hours run from 9am-4pm and from 6pm-8pm. That's it. All those other shows, according to Fox, are NOT NEWS!!!!!!
Were you aware of this?

What about the other 37% ?gypsy wrote:Which means that roughly 63% of their programming is not considered news.
Your argument is lame, it has no facts to support Fox doesn't report real news. Its ridiculous to say they don't report news.
The fact is they do, and everyone knows it.

the other sixty some percent is biased republican support,like beck hanniety O'Neil I at one time looked up how many untruths, lies and mistakes fox network made ,it was very very many~I put them here somewhere also on snops it gives you a rundown and the encyclopedia~ ..Murdoch even says it is mostly entertainment, and not news~37 percent is news but it is also biased and not straight news.

Sure its news, but its a video, not a news commentator actually talking~that is the 37 percent that was discussed ,37 percent is very low for a net work that calls thems selves news fair and balanced that, is not much news~ok I have discussed it all i am going to :) I don't like Fox~ simply put!

I'm done with this subject. It simply doesn't make any sense what you're saying and I don't want to be part of this convo anymore. Its silly. I'll let the others take you apart on this. lol
Really, Gypsy, in the future you should get your facts together and not let biased opinions sway your judgment. You clearly are not being logical.
OK, I'm done here.

Well-well, now I am a knucklehead. How clever coming from Gypsy. For someone who whines everytime she is called out on something this is not surprising.
Fox does report news often long before the other networks do. Many controversial issues are brought to light by Fox as it appears the other networks are afraid to ruffle feathers.
I am loving the racial tones of the New Black Panthers, and how the White House would love to sweep that one under the rug. But some people(Gypsy) think the Arizona law is racial..Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i said from the start they have conservative commentary shows, u act as if u just discovered something. u ask were we aware of this, ofcourse everyone knows beck, hannity , oreilly and greta are not news but commentary shows, but i think msnbc probably has some commentary shows also.its ok to not like fox, but u cant say that nothing they have is news, but this is silly, it just shows how biased u are. to not admit that fox does report the real news of the day. and by the way those hours they say their news runs are not bad numbers, many of these shows they have, have liberal guest from time to time, to have a discussion, i dont know why im arguing,i dont watch fox hardly ever, i replyed because u said nothing on fox is news, which i would have been embarrassed to post.but im done.. take care. u started this topic.. but i have said all i will say,

ok u posted a blog which i will say the person is accurate, on the hours, here is another bloggers view off ur url
Many of the networks do this, not just Fox. If you come up with a winning program, as evidenced by the ratings, you want to create other programming along the same lines. Fox has been quite successful in doing this, and so if it attracts viewers and boosts ad revenue, it's a savvy business move.
Besides, there is a limited number of times you can constantly re-run the same 15-second video clip of a "news" event. Once you have run it a few hundred times you have beaten it to death, yet we see the same real news items constantly re-run over and over again all day. Programming welcomes something besides repeating the same few "news" stories over and over and over all day long.

Rosco u miss the point as do the others, Fox say news fair an unbalanced but not even fifty percent is news, I still say they are not a news station, when they have 67 percent of programs that do nothing but slam the opposing party(Democrats0 of which they are totally republican supportive.. I should be able to voice my thoughts just as you and others do,I think Fox is a slam against the real news station that make their reports true not words added and lies created,I said I was through with this subject, I can find many discredits to Fox, but i won't because they have all been put here before, as I said I care less how you think that is your privilege just as it is mine to think as I do, I am not going to be slammed anymore..ssc had to mention me~so I retaliated!! the best way. Ignore~
