Fox News is the laughing stock of the civilised world, which does not
include the USA of course.

Murdoch puts his own tabloid spin on everything.
You just have to look at the coverage of todays events on Sky and compare
them to BBC News 24.

Sky virtually made sensational claims whenever they liked with no substance
to a lot of their headlines.
3 buses for example.

To be fair, the BBC did speculate that at one point as well - all it
turned out to be was 3 different people reporting 1 explosion but none
of them knowing exactly where it took place.

That said, I do dislike Sky News's sensationalist style, and think
that BBC News 24 is vastly superior and hugely more professional.

As an American I can tell you I find FoxNews terribly unbalanced, often
offensive, and just plain rotten. I've given up watching it entirely (except
for their weather which is quite good....)


Do Fox viewers get less hurricanes than (eg) CNN viewers?

Unlikely, though they might get fewer hurricanes.
