Hmm.
And there's the crux. Yeah, we all KNOW that various entities make donations to different candidates and campaigns to advance their own interests. But don't advertise yourself as "fair and balanced" when you are obviously, most definitely, unquestionably NOT. Anyone buying that they are getting "the truth" from Fox News is either extremely gullible or stupid; there's no other way around it.
