If Fox were funded the same way as PBS, I doubt it would last on the air very long, and it certainly couldn't qualify as a non-profit. Fox has an anti-intellectual appeal to it--more of a blue collar network. I enjoy some of the shows, but their news programs don't do much to stimulate my gray matter.
Replace anti-intellectual with anti-elitist and maybe you'll have a point.

That is a typical coffee shop liberal statement though. Do you often cast aspertions on your blue collar underlings? How dare people who dont get paid as much as you challenge your intellect. You know whats best for them, right?
