I thought you might be interested in the article from the FAIR web site. The following article will be appended to your message: The Most Biased Name in News FAIR SPECIAL REPORT: Fox News Channel wraps itself in slogans of journalistic objectivity like "Fair and balanced" and "We report, you decide," but a new FAIR report finds a dramatic right-wing tilt in the network's news. In a study of interviewees on the network's signature political news show, Special Report with Brit Hume, FAIR found that of 56 partisan guests in a five month period, 50 were Republicans and six were Democrats. That's 89 percent Republican, a greater than 8 to 1 imbalance. But Special Report-- originally created as a daily hour-long update on the 1998 Clinton sex scandals-- doesn't just skew Republican, it skews conservative: During the course of the study, 65 of the show's total of 92 guests (71 percent) were avowed conservatives. Conservatives outnumbered all other points of view, including non-political guests, by a factor of more than 2 to 1. What's more, the show featured only eight female guests and six people of color, making for a guest list that was 91 percent male and 93 percent white.
