Fair & Balanced?

Because Fox News is the only news station we receive live and direct from the US, I find myself watching America's Newsroom beginning at 3 p.m. Munich time almost every day. As such, I can honestly say Fox News is far from fair and balanced.

They focus more on promoting McCain/Paliin ticket and less on Obama/Biden. Just today, the story was about how well Palin did in her Gibson interview on ABC. I saw clips from the show. And I found parts to be quite disturbing - especially when Palin reacted to Mr. Gibson's question about Bush's foreign policy doctrine. Palin replied, "What specifically do you mean?" (or something like that).

The pause, and answer, made me very uncomfortable. But I'm sure Fox News won't show that clip. Instead, they highlighted the public's "positive" reaction to Palin and Gibson's implication that Palin was somewhat smug about her acceptance of the VP ticket. And just now, Fox News is featuring Palin and how much money she's brining in to the GOP. That doesn't seem very balanced to me.
