      Yeah doubt this poll is true! Never trust a news agency that is completly right wing nut cases. Looks like they manipulated that poll to get results that suit them, cause who the hell watches fox news except old people!



    2. 2

      U.S. Fail.



    3. 3

      This makes me very happy for America!!!



    4. 4

      Wow, just can't figure out American's for the life of me.



    5. 5

      Oh thank GOD !! Finally America is waking up. This makes me SO happy!



    6. 6

      Who the fuck did they poll?? A bunch of old conservative morons i suppose..most of them have dementia anyway, well anyone who TRUSTS FOX IS FUCKING RETARDED.



    7. 7

      Perez, you should WATCH it before JUDGING IT!!! it is the most trusted station FOR A REASON!!!….and yes, this means AMERICA IS FINALLY WAKING UP!!! =D



    8. 8

      Um.. this makes you sad? They are the only non-biased news outlet. You must not like Fox b/c they don't bow down to Osama. Give me a break.



    9. 9

      if you watch. They are the only ones reporting non biased news. This does not include the talk shows. just the reporting. I've watched all the other channels and it's just blatant disregard for the truth.



    10. 10

      What is sad is that you believe that you are the trusted source for gossip, speculation, over the top inuendo and bogus crap in promoting your site, still there are many that tune in. As in your case there are so many different sites as yours and people view them and choose which to see frequently. So in this case many have chosen Fox News. Remember there is more than the known pundits and that could be a good reason for the choice, then again you are such a hater you just need to mouth off and comment on anything to try and prove your relevance. Thats my opinion and I am sticking to it.



    11. 11

      You doubt it's true because it's a right wing news station. Try dealing with the facts people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    12. 12

      So Tina you trust the other outlets, let me see….oh the likes of MSNBC, CNN, Katie???? Look in the mirror and see who the tard is….freaky huh???



    13. 13

      I'll stick to BBC (which was probably not in the poll), however one should never trust any media a 100% and always question them and/or look for more information about the subject from other sources…



    14. 14

      AMERICA HAS FINALLY WOKEN UP!! YAY FOXNEWS!



    15. 15

      You know who takes those polls? Old people. Old, stupid, misguided people that are shaming this country.



    16. 16

      That's what happens when the democrats mess everything up…



    17. 17

      It's fucking FOXNEWS against all of the other liberals who suck Obamas cock. fuck cnn and msnbc, keep sucking obamas cock!

      Foxnews tells the stories STRAIGHT.



    18. 18

      I'm sad for America too!!



    19. 19

      Yes, because CNN is so balanced, fair, accurate and unbiased. *cough*



    20. 20

      The knee jerk animosity towards Fox News is ridiculous. They truly are absolutely fair and balanced in their NEWS coverage and people who cannot tell the difference between that and their OPINION coverage are idiots - including you, Perez. Instead of just doing whateverinhell your liberal asshole buddies do, why don't you try using that organ between your ears and thinking for yourself!



    21. 21

      HOLY SHIT!!!! Obviously they didn't poll very many people. OR they just polled a bunch of stupid republicans. WTF America!!!!



    22. 22

      That's pretty sad if that polls is accurate. Having lived in Europe & now Canada you can see what real news is- and Fox ain't real news.
      How is it possible that people will watch Fox and actually listen & believe the crap they are saying? Un-freakin'-believable. Sad- the people that were polled should be ashamed of themselves.



    23. 23

      This makes me very sad. Americans, please formulate your opinions on varied news sources. FOX is sensationalized and configured to generate reaction. The news is not supposed to push you one way or the other. It's supposed to inform you so you can decide how you feel.

      FOX news is destroying this country.



    24. 24

      Was this poll done by Fox News?? I truly hope America hasn't come to this.



    25. 25

      Re: laviebelle – You are a brain-dead lemming.

      Look it up.



    26. 26

      so the only news sources we can trust are completely left-wing nut cases? nice try. it's so hilarious to me how liberals bitch about conservatives having a voice, but when a liberal's voice is taken away, that's not okay. oh, the hypocrisy…



    27. 27

      Perez, please trust me: I am FISCALLY oober Conservative. That makes me come off as being a typical "Republican" follower but there is more to it. I am SOCIALLY a LIBERAL. I support the destruction of Prop8, medical marijuana, stem cell research too. Pay more attention to FoxNews. They really aren't so bad.



    28. 28

      I don't love their talk shows, but the news portion is very good. I am excited that people realize this.



    29. 29

      I just think it's time that america wakes up. They cover stories that MSNBC or CNN will not touch because if it has anything to do with obama, they love him. There are alot of people who watch fox news. I watch it every once and a while i am neither RETARDED or someone who has dementia.



    30. 30

      If anyone doesn't believe this is a true statement then you need to watch all news channels and see for yourself. Atleast Fox shows all sides regardless of what they may believe. GOD BLESS



    31. 31

      That is because you are a liberal Perez. The rest of America is not like you. You are out of touch! Give Fox a chance. You may not like what you hear, but it's fair and balanced.The truth always hurts…



    32. 32

      don't ever doubt the power of rednecks. they can only get their "news" from fox. while fox is making up lies and exaggerating any little thing obama could possibly do wrong (which these crazy hicks eat right up), the other news stations are talking about tiger woods and haiti.
      personally, i think all american news sucks and i rely on bbc if i want real, UNBIASED news about the US.



    33. 33

      No big surprise, many Americans have no idea what goes on outside their own country (or outside their own state). Fox is the reasonable choice for them.



    34. 34

      Re: chosenchicky – no, fox doesn't "bow down" to OBAMA, but they constantly try to slander him. like him or not, he's your president and as americans we should respect and try to support him rather than constantly try to knock him down, which fox constantly does by blatantly making shit up and only giving one side for every story.



    35. 35

      I watch CNN as well as fox in order to gain both perspectives on issues. am I on old conservative man? no I'm 22 and college educated at a big ten university (hoo hoo hoosiers). There is a large section of the American population that do not always agree with the left wing ideology. Do I agree with everything fox news says? no, but they do show both perspectives of a story. I guarantee that the people who are responding on this site do not even follow current events. can someone tell me who the speaker of the house is? can you name some of the issues that this country is facing? (besides health care and the war) can you name you states senator? or your governor? I bet the majority of you cannot without using google. I find it sad that people cannot come up with this information but they know what their favorite celeb is doing right now.

      I hate all of you democrats… Do you people understand the world is in shambles because of you people?!?! YAY for Fox News!!! Thank God Scott Brown won in Mass!!!



    37. 37

      I guess they only polled Orange County….



    38. 38

      this country just keeps getting dumber and dumber…. it's embarassing to be from the usa.



    39. 39

      How sad for America. Just because they say that they are unbiased, people believe them. For shame!



    40. 40

      This just isn't from some poll but ratings and the ratings don't lie! They ALWAYS beat out all the other news shows COMBINED!



    41. 41

      I'm and independent and I watch fox over all the other news channels. The economy is sucking and so was the healthcare bill… yet all the other channels were talking about was the dream life President Obama was living. Come on if the other news channels would start giving the President a harder time I would watch! I mean come on NBC filed a complaint that ABC was getting "special attention" from the White House? You have got to be kidding me.

      Just because Fox News doesn't constantly praise the President doesn't make the station bad… nor should it make you sad for America that we all just them!

      On that note… Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck are annoying as hell… but Bill O'reilly makes sense. I hate any far-right or far-left minded people!



    42. 42

      Not that I totally agree with what Fox News puts out there but it sure beats other networks who have been in bed with the Obama administration since the get go! I mean it's time to wake up as Americans and see that neither left nor right are doing anything for America except orchestrating her downfall…Obama has not done anything beneficial since being elected only created more problems…so when do they stop being the former administrations's mess and become his own…America while you sleep corrupt Politicians are destroying this country!



    43. 43

      Re: GooglyMoogly – Exactly! I can't watch them because they practically drool when talking about President Obama!

    44. buck says – reply to this


      44

      Re: route40misery – the manipulation comes from the left. made up documents by Dan Rather, CBS hit reports and cover-ups by '60 Minutes, fake fainting of adoring Obama supporters during the election, 'Ellie Light" ficticious editorial letter appearing in 69 seperate newspapers at around the same time.



    45. 45

      I highly doubt that. the better question is WHO conducted th epoll and was it an INDPNDT study w/ no ties or affiliations to any entities that stand to gain from such a glwoing review? I think NOT! It was entertaining to read tho!



    46. 46

      BTW, the BBC is the most trusted news source in the WORLD. That test was conducted by an indpnt company.



    47. 47

      who the heck makes this polls?



    48. 48

      That's because the aging American population all have their heads up their asses and love to believe whatever is spoon fed to them. I'm really hoping the younger generations will think for themselves. There also needs to be more unity amongst the "regular" people so they can rally together and fight against the injustices forced upon the population by the greedy and corrupt government. Instead, we're all worried about Brangelina breaking up and what movie will be first at the box office this weekend. Time to reexamine what's more important!!!

    49. buck says – reply to this


      49

      and just so everyone knows why FOX is the most trusted news service here is the way the previous election was covered. Favorable news stories for Obama v. McCain : MSNBC 73% Obama 14% McCain, CNN 61% Obama 39% McCain, FOX 40% Obama 40% McCain. Over the 2009 calendar year FOX ran conservative views 39% of the time and liberal views 34% of the time. WTF is right.



    50. 50

      Re: cs1234 – Wow, you must never watch Fox News Cs1234! They always have both sides of a story. Sure, they do have opinion shows, like Glenn Beck, but so does MSNBC etc. (BTW Keith Oberman is one rude guy). Slander against Obama -no! I do agree they do not bow down to Obama. (Unlike Chris Matthews who gets a "tingle feelings running up his leg" whenever he hears Obama speak. Please!!



    51. 51

      Cracks me up how upset some of you are getting over a news channel. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Just because you disagree with someone over their choice does not make them a redneck, hick, old, demented, or any other derogatory term. Grow up.



    52. 52

      um it's the news station that tells it like it is. reported on most things that many Americans had felt "lied" to about prior to the elections back in 08. It's sad that they had not trusted them earlier.

    53. MP says – reply to this


      53

      Really, you're sad for America that a news network shows both sides of an issue, as opposed to other networks who only show one side? It seems like liberals only believe in freedom of speech when you agree with their position. THAT'S what sad.



    54. 54

      What a joke.

    55. LA22 says – reply to this


      55

      Well that makes me proud to be Canadian lol



    56. 56

      II watch Fox news! They're the only station that I can trust, and I am an independent.



    57. 57

      Re: WillowWynde – I agree with you Willow!



    58. 58

      It saddens me that so many people on this site are so ignorant and uneducated about the history of our country. The democrats have owned the main stream media since the 1960s (and yes, I am plenty old enough to have watched the changes in this country). They have managed to spread the left wing propaganda that is so prevalent. America is finally waking up and you seem to think that is a horrible thing. Thanks to the lefties we lose more of our freedom and rights every day. Instead of being happy about that you should be outraged. Thank God for Fox News. Maybe one day, Perez, you will see the light too. Nah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    59. 59

      Re: archimmes – You are a perfect example of a hateful left winger. Shame on you.



    60. 60

      Re: cs1234 – Gee, you sound like a highly intelligent person — NOT!



    61. 61

      Ok, let's be all partisan again and start talking about how Fox News is all full of right-wing nutjobs. Yayy! Now you sound like every other idiot that spouts their opinions on stupid celebrity blogs (oops…. did I just insult myself? lol)

      The political parties want you to have these biases, and you fulfill them by spouting your ignorance all over the place (to commentors and Perez). I don't watch Fox News, and I also don't watch ANY other news station… why? BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL BIASED. CNN, MSNBC, etc., are all VERY biased towards the Liberal agenda; Fox News is slightly biased towards Neo-Cons… and I'm not downplaying it. Check out the actual studies that have been done on the news content of all these "news" channels (aka, PUNDIT world). Look, people, the only evil is the people that are trying to control us and control our government. Don't rely on party politics and "talking points" to have a political opinion– do your own research! And stop listening to Perez; he really does not understand our political system and Constitution.



    62. 62

      Re: ViciousKittenLuv – Why do lefties like you always resort to name calling instead of providing facts? Ignorance perhaps?



    63. 63

      this is just sad..



    64. 64

      Re: blmo54 – How sad for you. Just because the main stream media has been owned by the democrats since the 1960s you believe their lies.



    65. 65

      Re: MP – Nicely said!



    66. 66

      And you think it should be perhaps CNN or ~laugh~ MSNBC?
      NONE OF THEM CAN BE TRUSTED
      Think for yourself



    67. 67

      THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN. EAT IT, SUCKERS!



    68. 68

      Ah yes, the dumbing down of America is complete. Who did this poll and what knuckleheads answered it?



    69. 69

      GUESS THEM NUTTY "TEA-BAGGERS" RULE.

      WE HAIL THE FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE U.S. CONSTITUTION - THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      70

      Why are you referencing Politico.com like it's a real news source? Frederick J. Ryan Jr., chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Foundation, is its president and CEO. Politico is the equivalent of Fox News itself, so of course it presents FN as a bastion of right thinking and democracy that's victimized by the evile liberals.



    71. 71

      There's no such thing as trusted news from any of the stations mention here Fox MSNBC or CNN its all options. and to get your information from one source in my opinion is well stupid.



    72. 72

      I highly doubt that. the better question is WHO conducted the poll and was it an INDPNDT study w/ no ties or affiliations to any entities that stand to gain from such a glwoing review? I think NOT! It was entertaining to read tho!

      BTW, Why are we up in arms about a poll NOT conducted via independent study?



    73. 73

      Well, the majority of Americans are morons so it makes sense.



    74. 74

      I love FOX NEWS!



    75. 75

      Re: sushilover – Just cause you're a homo doesn't mean everyone that watches FOXNEWS hates you. FOXNEWS is much more trustworthy than CNN.



    76. 76

      I wouldnt watch Foxs News if there weren't any other channels on my TV and there were no newspapers



    77. 77

      Sad for America?? This is the fucking country that allows you the freedom to be yourself. Be sad for yourself and others like you that are trying to impose your "Political Correctness" on other Americans! That makes me sad. :-(



    78. 78

      lol I'm a 21 year old female college student and I regularly watch Fox News. You'd be surprised how many people my age are starting to open their eyes and actually ask questions about what's going on in Washington. The Obama euphoria is wearing off, especially in the younger generation. Progressives like to claim that the Republican party consists entirely of out-of-touch old farts, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. We are the future!



    79. 79

      Yeah !! they at least tell the truth and don't resort to name calling. Anyone ever watch MSNBC???? totally leftist name calling whiners whose raings suck wind.

      [re=4703554]Re: lau115ren[/re ' the majority of Americans are morons'

      Exactly…how do you think we ended up with Obama!



    81. 81

      stfu perez. just because your gay your an extreme liberal. doe obama support gay marriage? no so go kill yourself. its selfish that the only reason your a democrat is because you have a better chance of being able to marry a man. you need to look at whats best for the country as a whole. not yourself. i'd like to hear you talk about other political issues besides gay marriage. im sure you dont know anything.



    82. 82

      Don't watch nor do I know anybody that does. The cast of characters on Fox are so opinionated and biased that its removes any degree of objectivity.



    83. 83

      the only reason fox is on top of ratings is because conservative people only watch fox. us liberals watch more than one station to get our information….



    84. 84

      Fox NEWS isn't biased. Their news show people are, just like ALL news show hosts (left or right). They've got the best news feed around. All the news you steal from the Stern show's reports probably come from there so just get a clue Perez.



    85. 85

      Fuck that! Fox is SO far from "Fair and balanced"! Fox is ignorant people's news source!!



    86. 86

      Hahaha, wtf indeed! Well, at least it explains some opinions several posters in this blog have about 'the world'. Like someone else on here said, watch BBC World.



    87. 87

      *shakes head*



    88. 88

      This is not a surprise to anyone with a mind of their own and a brain to process the information.

      Polls are often misleading. Things like who was asked, how the question was phrased, where the people being asked were found, etc all make huge differences in the results. I doubt that this poll is accurate.

      Re: cakeisogood – - then move to another country..



    91. 91

      L.O.V.E. Fox News! Hopefully this means America is FINALLY waking up. All you sad liberals out there are just pissed because Fox doesn't bow to Obama. They realize he's a crock as a President - and aparently most others are feeling the same :)



    92. 92

      That explains how you have voted for the same dumb president TWICE



    93. 93

      Have you ever watched Fox News? Not the political shows, the actual news. It's very fair.



    94. 94

      Thank God people are starting to wake up and be disgusted with the cult of Obama. Hope and Change my ass. You liberals are so fucking dumb.

    95. mdn1 says – reply to this


      95

      Keith Oberman (sp?) pushed me to fox. Wow! That guy is bitter.



    96. 96

      Regardless of the story, they tell the truth. I'm not surprised. Besides that dumbass Gretchen Carlson, everyone's pretty on the ball. I'll say it again, Perez. You're a douche.



    97. 97

      It's really gotta suck for you Liberals. Time after time the people speak yet time and again it's deny, distort, put down. Wake the fuck up, the people are talking



    98. 98

      Newsflash, Americans are stupid sheep that are easily influenced and led by the nose.



    99. 99

      I'm actually shocked that you, Perez, actually put this on your site. Maybe if you took the time to watch FOX news, you would realize that what you see is what you get. CNN and MSNBC have lost viewers because of the ass kissing of the president that they do. Can you honestly say you are happy with what Obama has done so far? Don't see him helping any causes, including the gays. Maybe you should switch over to FOX. That way you can see the situation in the white house and congress for what it is. Not the garbage CNN and MSNBC try to tell you.



    100. 100

      I think some of the idiots above don't even know the defintion of unbiased. There are left leaning news channels and there is definitely a right leaning one. It's called Fox. There are NO unbiased news channels except for maybe PBS.
      Unbiased means delivering news without opinion or commentary. Fox is all about commentary. All it does its blast Liberals. It's Propoganda for the right wing.
