The '''Fox News Channel''' is a [[United States]] [[cable]] and [[satellite]] [[news]] channel. It is a 24-hour general news service covering breaking news as well as political, business and entertainment news.  The average age of its viewership is 65 years old, and even 70 years old for its [[O'Reilly Factor]].  Much of Fox News Channel is self-serving "happy talk," telling its elderly conservative audience what it wants to hear, or selling O'Reilly's latest book.
