Do those on the right say Fox News is biased?

Regardless of political affiliation, intelligent people realize that every source has a bias and usually an agenda.

Other people think anything that they disagree with is "biased" and accept only information that confirms what they already believe.

To answer your question: do those on the right say Fox News is biased? Some do, some don't.

I'm on the right, I believe Fox is biased-right.

(Of course I see a lot of left-lean in a bunch of others.)

I do understand there are different POVs but there is also fact vs non-fact.

Example with Photo: https://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-refers-to-el-salvador-guat...

Fox News Headline: "Trump Cuts Aid to 3 Mexican Countries"

Issue: There is only one "Mexican Country" -- Mexico.

Regardless of political leaning, there is an issue with news like this.

I'm right leaning on some issues and left leaning on other issues. If you want right-leaning news, The Wall Street Journal is a far better source for right leaning news. I used to subscribe to the WSJ. Now I subscribe to the Financial Times which conveniently side-steps most US politics alltogether.

That was funny, but from the page you linked to it seems that was a bungled caption onscreen for a few seconds, hardly a "Fox News Headline" or "news".
