I think this really isn't a big issue. Fox leans right, CNN left, MSNBC far left. All the mainstream network news shows are all left leaning. BBC had to give classes on objectivity after reporters in Iraq accused the editors of rewriting their stories to make the war seem like a disaster. As to what I saw Fox will be running a show on some other networks which will bring the whole media to light. Fox is mostly made up from jilted reporters from other networks all of whom have a score to settle. Either way you look at it the media a a whole is going to be coming under the microscope shortly.
Most of my news comes from the web sources like Drudge etc. I find all the network coverage lazy and event driven instead of simply reporting the facts of the stories.
