, 07:29, November 22, 2016→Pretends to Be Conservative?: re
Are you sure that is correct? I think that it pretends (or is) "fair & balanced," except that I don't know any major new outlet that doesn't kiss up to sodomists. Aside from that latter issue, I think that FoxNews is middle of the road, having persons both on the left & the right, for example Sean Hannity is definitely conservative (aside from kissing up as I already said.) At any rate, I think "pretends to be conservative" should be changed to "presents itself with the claim of "fair and balanced . . . we report; you decide." I think that liberals tend to pretend that it is conservative. ([[User:Thunkful2|Thunkful2]] ([[User talk:Thunkful2|talk]]) 02:10, 22 November 2016 (EST))

:It started out conservative, but the founder (his name escapes me at this time of the morning) was turned by his liberal wife, and Fox news has taken the same turn. It is still better than the others, but not much. Meanwhile, as you said, liberals point to Fox as "far-right" and "extremely conservative." What once was fairly reliable has now moved to a "middle of the road" or slightly leftist position. They still don't openly slant things as much and as often as the rest, but they still pick their reports and coverage to give the wrong idea. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 02:29, 22 November 2016 (EST)

"The average age of its viewership is 74 years old, and even 79 years old for its O'Reilly Factor." There is no citation given to support that claim. I find it incredible, which is not to say it is definitely untrue. Also the use of the present tense for such statements is not advisable, as they can change over time. I suggest that the statement read something like, "For 2016, Neilson claims that the average age of viewership is 74 years old." But I wonder how anyone could know that. A cable subscriber might be 74 years old, but Fox News is watched in his home by his 20 year old wife. ([[User:Thunkful2|Thunkful2]] ([[User talk:Thunkful2|talk]]) 02:21, 22 November 2016 (EST))
