Fox Derangement Syndrome is a political term referring to some liberals' wildly exaggerated overreaction to the news, opinion shows, and very existence of the Fox News Channel. Although the term did not exist at the time, a good example occurred during the December 1, 2003 broadcast of Hardball with Chris Matthews, in which liberal Democrat political commentator Chris Matthews asked liberal Democrat politican Howard Dean, "Would you break up Fox?". To which Dean replied, "On ideological grounds, absolutely yes."[1]
