I think Fox has very good coverage on Shep Smith, Chris Wallace and Bret Baier. The others are more political slugfests and extremists. It narrows your audience.

Fox News’ obsession over President Obama’s remarks about “jihad” during his trip to India perfectly epitomizes one of the ways it spins and distorts the news for its partisan purposes. Rather than discuss the substance of Obama’s trip or what he accomplished there or his record on the war on terror, Fox News took what would have been an unremarkable soundbite for any truly fair-minded examination and blew it up into an unfounded suggestion that Obama is soft on or overly sympathetic to Islamic terrorism.

Lets give credit where credit is due! Without the strong advocacy of Fox News (and of course WorldNetDaily.com), orchestrated by its chief, Roger Ailes – the former Republican ad man that helped elect President Ronald Reagan – we would not now have a strong tea party, and we would not have removed Nancy Pelosi and her fellow socialists from control of the U.S. House of Representatives.” - Larry Klayman

Fox News anchors for quite some time have shown almost no inclination in terms of knowing how to practice traditional journalism, so there was no reason to think the likes of Sean Hannity would suddenly discover the subtler points of the newsmaker Q&A while sitting awe-struck across from Bush.
