Which Media Outlet is More Biased?

[ElectionsGuy]

Which of these two media outlets is more biased, or spins the conversation in their favor? I of course choose MSNBC (R). Not that FOX is much better, but its definitely less delusional than the other network.

Fox.

Fox (I/O)

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Probably MSNBC, though they don't openly lie nearly as much. Both networks, of course, are tools of the bourgeois establishment.

CNN (short for Cogendist News Network, of course) is the voice of the proletariat working man in his daily struggle against the crypto-fascist bourgeois establishment, and rails against such bourgeois tools as: the explotation of impoverished American women for pornographic material, marijuana, (which of course, is a distraction that only impairs the proletariat from establishing their righteous dictatorship sooner), tobacco products (see marijuana), soda (sold by industrious bourgeoise businessmen to cushion their immense fortunes, and diminish the health of proletariat workers everywhere, so that they will die much faster, and save the bourgeois dominated insurance companies immense quantities of cash), ice cream (same as soda), and of course automobiles: (rich bourgeois heathens produce these machines to clout the environment so they can turn around and sell the public echo cars in a few short years, simply needed due to the very environmental crisis they created in the first place.

FOX because MSNBC doesn't stick with Obama the way FOX sticks to Palin/Bush.

Very true.

Now matter how many times you use the term "bourgeois", you will never be Opebo.

[This user has not been convicted of 34 felonies]

They're both equally as biased.

[H. Ross Peron]

Fox.

[Miles]

For those saying MSNBC, I'd encourage them to check out Media Matters.

LOL, Media Matters is more biased than Fox OR MSNBC.

[Maxwell]

I'd give the slight push for Fox News, though MSNBC has a lot of Obamahacks, and Chris Wallace is very good sometimes.

Well, its entire premise is to point out right-wing bias in the media, so at least its not trying to present itself as neutral.

I like Bret Baier and Sheppard Smith more than most of the daytime MSNBC hosts, but Fox's prime time hosts are just awful to me.

I knew it was connected to the SPLC (maybe I am thinking of right-wing watch) but if I am correct, didn't Media Matters only come out as an anti-conservative organization a few years ago? For years they tried (and failed) at presenting themselves as neutral.

And MSNBC's got Alec Baldwin now.

I think its always had at least a progressive tint, but its only been in the last few years taht they've explicitly said that they're zeroing in on Fox. 

[TDAS04]

FOX. 

[Goldwater]

They're both equally as biased.

[morgieb]

At least MSNBC realises they're left-wing hacks. Fox tries to be independent.

[Kitteh]

Write-in: the entire premise of this poll is ridiculous and trying to reduce the biases of the American media down to "x channel has a liberal/conservative bias" is a great indicator that the person making that statement has no f**king clue about how politics works and no business in media criticism

[Keystone Phil]

MSNBC and there really is no doubt about it. And I've never been a FOX News fan, for the record.

[DC Al Fine]

Don't watch either.

[AkSaber]

MSNBC and there really is no doubt about it.

Totally agree. And Chris Matthews is the most insufferable and deceitful yutz on a news channel.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

They are two entities that exist for completely different reasons.  

MSNBC is news for liberals and they advertise themselves as the go to network if you want to engage in a big left wing circle jerk.  

Fox News is a propaganda machine, and only a propaganda machine.  

EDIT: I will give MSNBC credit for the midday coverage, which IS actually news.  Fox does not once turn off the brain-washing ray, 'round the clock.  Everything and I mean EVERYTHING is designed and reported and elaborated upon in a way to get you to think about it in the way they want you to.

Just curious.  If MSNBC is the most biased why is the biggest chunk of their daily weekday programing devoted to a Republican former Congressman?  Is that the way it works over at Fox?  Do they give twice as much time to a Democratic former Congressman to even things out and be less biased than MSNBC?  Which show is that?  I'd like to watch it.

After the Republican is on for three hours on MSNBC in the morning the wife of the longest serving Republican Fed Chairman in my lifetime kicks off the afternoon with a one hour show... pretty biased.

Well prime time is a naked partisan circus on both channels.  I suppose MSNBC is more honest about it.  Although I like what they are doing with Chris Hayes.  And Steve Kornacki is pretty good on weekends.  I can't stand Ed, Sharpton, and even Matthews is getting a bit old.  I like the younger more wonkish types.  So if I had to pick my favorites it would be Steve Kornacki, Chris Hayes, Maddow, and the Republican former Congressman who is on for three hours a day.
