Tracy, I don't anything in this discussion that is proved by reasoning and examples. The whole period before an election is one that reasons with FUD and emotions.

Personally I'd like to see anything sustansive that would prove that Fox news is the foundation of press freedom (or whatever it means). This is really what mike is aiming at. And I must agree with him. Regarding Fox news as the enlighted baken of freedom of press is absurd to me, and proves the majority does not even know how news is processed before it is broadcasted.

Also, freedom of press does not equal independed and unbiased press.
