RE: How Ridiculous is Fox news?

HuskieJon.. that's all Stewart has to say about those who watch Fox News, and Fox News itself, because it's true. Fox News watchers are less informed.
I really don't have a problem with people watching Fox News though, as long as it's watched under the right pretense (that the people watching, know it's a conservative / republican leaning news channel). I'd say the same for those who watch MSNBC (that they know going in that it's a progressive / democrat leaning news channel).
I had assumed those who solely watch Fox News, watch it because they are conservative, and prefer news coverage with a heavy conservative slant because that's catering to them. Just as those who watch Jon Stewart, enjoy watching those people be mocked.
The fact that some of you watch it because you think it is unbiased, or in the "center", is just kind of kind of mindblowing to me, and a bit depressing if nothing else. I'll watch all the news channels, but I at least know going in, MSNBC is going to be leaning left, Fox News is going to be leaning right. To be so naive to think that Fox News is unbiased is just unbelievable.

Why would you want to watch that when you can watch Hannity on Fox news call the tea partiers 'Tim McVeigh wannabees"? And the audience clapped. Frickin crazy (or just stupid) people. Have to go to the end of this to hear it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ani93EHvXcE
