I agree. Fox News wears what it is on it's sleeve. CNN proports to be a fair, truthful source of news and very rarely outright lies to people, but there is too much missing context, misleading headlines, and late corrections. It takes too much mental energy to figure out what is worth paying attention to on CNN, it is easier to just ignore it.

Isn't Fox New's official slogan "Fair and Balanced"?
If CNN is so neutral why do you assume that if I am against them that I like Fox News. News isn't a fucking red team vs blue team sport. I just want a good non-partisan news source. Fox News is terrible but CNN and MSNBC seem to be racing to be them.
I.... what?

I didn't say CNN is neutral, I don't believe that. Nor have I assumed you like Fox News, I didn't insinuate anything of the sort. All I'm saying is Fox News does not wear what they are on their sleeve; they purport to be "fair and balanced" which is plainly a lie.

Much like CNN is "The Most Trusted Name in News".
