    Like I said - Newscorp has a different agenda than other news organizations. They do different blackouts in coverage and accentuate different occurrences. If this is true and you can't find it anywhere else - doesn't it make you slightly thankful that newscorp exists? I am thankful when left leaning news sites present facts that are blacked out by other mainstream news organizations.

    only if the 'news' is important. not sure about this story yet. and the catch 22 of it is, if it's really important, a reputable news agency will pick it up.
    now i'm here, and history is vindicated.

    Not always. I like Fox news and other Newscorp branches. I also like coverage that I am ideologically opposed to.

    So what is your major gripe with Fox? Do you find that they lie and make up facts?
