The film 'Outfoxed', accuses Fox executives of ordering its TV news anchors, reporters and producers to slant the news in favour of George W Bush, who faces the American people in November.

O/


They bring you the news
All the news biased to fit
Well, after all, IS it news?
Or just a crock of ****?

Have YOU been foxed
Thought they were straight?
Got given a bias
And thought it was first rate?

Oh they are big and bold
What they say MUST be right!
Oh yeah? Well take a look
You were ‘Outfoxed’ day & night

John Moody, senior vice-president at Fox News:
'Do not fall into the easy trap of mourning the loss of US lives and asking out loud why we are there?'

Fair and balanced?
Is it REALLY?
Fair and balanced?
No, deceit used freely

Respect for truth?
They don’t have any
But pro-Bush agendas?
Yes, they have MANY!

A distortion of truth
Swung to the right
It’s what they give you
Night on night on night

Not lies, no, not quite
Just biased news
Keeping easy on Bush
With biased film crews

This is a channel
Where pundits tend to scoff
“George Bush is great!”
Best turn them OFF

You just keep 'em coming.

FAIR [www.fair.org] has also done an excellent job revealing how FOX is bascially a news channel for the AM-Radio crowd.
