Some bias involved
For some reason, I was surprised to see the "Outfoxed" documentary in my local video store. I don't know why I was surprised. Watched it and learned little that was new to me. However one bit I don't think I knew was that the "Fairness doctrine" (that radio and TV must give equal time to opposing views) was eliminated during the Reagan years. This helps explain the rise of the News Corp (Fox's parent company) extreme bias. Alas.
