    It's interesting how when some incompetent news reporter on Fox News fails to properly do his/her job it's a problem with "Fox News", but when a similarly incompetent reporter on some other news organization fails to do his/her job it's a problem with that reporter, not with the news organization employing the reporter. Fail.

    It's a basic tenet of (good) organizations that the higher levels accept the blame for what goes wrong while passing praise for what goes right to the lower levels. (Bad organizations do it the other way around of course.)

      Of course it's a problem with Fox News, they employ this dimwit.

      Most news organizations employ dimwits. So the question is why is Fox News singled out when they're no more or less guilty as any other organization?

        Agreed. But we're talking about outside criticism here. Why the bias against FNC?

          Because they are the channel that transmitted this guy's ridiculous comments. I am not sure why that upsets you so much.

            Because nobody makes similar pronouncements ridiculing MSNBC when it broadcasts similar asinine statements by left-wingers.

                What bias? One of their 'experts' made some totally stupid comments, so they are due a measure of fair criticism.

                    The bias comes in the form of only knocking FNC for such and also for requiring editorial intervention during live TV.

                      And I say again: how is that bias? It is justified criticism, based on facts.
