Why all the hate for Fox News?

I know they are a right wing news channel (for the most part) but that alone should not make the news they cover invalid. Every now and then I see some dumb things; for example the episode of the Factor where Bill O'Reilly got a psychologist to try and find the "meaning" behind Gangnam Style. But every news station does something stupid every now and then, the occasional blunder is expected. Ever since the presidential election last year I've had my tv on Fox News. So I've been watching it for quite a while and I just can't find where the hate for this channel comes from. Could someone explain to me what's wrong with this news channel? (On a side note watching Fox News actually helped me get through my college geography class; I knew what was going on in the world, and probably the only one in my class that actually knew what the teacher was talking about.)

  • Fox News Channel is bad because they're biased and also because they make believe things that aren't true (to some extent). In Government class I watched a documentary on media and how they cover the news and all. The documentary brought Fox News and all they had to say was criticisms. I remember they had an example - Fox News was covering a LGBT rally or something like that and from the video report they had made seem like there was tons of million supporters when in reality there was only a couple thousand. It turns out they had taken footage from a different rally from like 2004 with millions of supporters and edited the clips to fit together to make it seem like the LGBT rally had millions of supporters. The documentary pointed this out because there was a weather contrast in the news report, one shot showed white clouds (LGBT rally) and the next shot (2004 rally) showed dark grey clouds that were about to rain. Fox News is just a whole bunch of lies. And dont event get me start on O'Reilly ----> America's biggest idiot. I bet people only watch Fox News to watch Bill yell at people.
