I have this feeling that the constant criticism of Ron Paul in this year's election will hurt FOX News so badly it will sink the network. If you disagree, please keep it to yourself. Don't spoil my fantasy. :D

Honestly, I'm watching CNN and MSNBC from now on, unless Fox has a debate.

I only watch Lou Dobbs and when the news mentions paul. For everything else, I'll use the internet.

You would be wayyyy better off un-subscribing from cable completely, and using the internet for all your entertainment and info purposes.

I didn't know such a sentence was even possible. I'll view Fox viewers much more emphatically in the future.

After the unbiased ABC debate, I know what channel I'll be watching. ;)

O'Reilly panders too much to liberals.

They aren't a legitimate news operation. You don't hire journalists that wear their bias on their sleeves like Brit Fumes to conduct Presidential Debates.

For FOX News to constantly belittle Ron Paul shows what little ethics they have. Let the American people decide who is a joke.

I watched C-Span for 4 hours this morning. The Brookings Institute had a forum of economists discussing the coming recession. TV can be educational.

I used to watch FNC, now I find myself tuning into CNN for primary coverage.

They've been far more fair to Ron Paul. I think this may be a result of CNN having left leanings and being more interested in the outcome of the Democratic Party's nomination.

I admit I was happy to start watching fox when all I had was cnn but now it makes me sick to even turn it on, I like the t.v guide channel better now.

I hear that Fox stock is tumbling, but that's just a rumour. I wouldn't want to be responsible for starting that rumour, but it seems to be spreading across the Internet like wildfire.

I think we might see it that way because Ron Paul is our folk hero, but no...FOX will survive this. Unfortunately.

We should do everything we can to Make sure CNN and MSNBC are informed and notified every single time we see FOX making shit up...

They should be exposed and discredited for the hacks and liars that they are.

Ok I'm going to show my "nutcase" side to all of you now.

I really enjoy watching American Idol. To diminish my nuttiness, let me explain why. It really doesn't have much to do with the judges, though I do like Simon the best. The reason I like watching is because no matter who wins, it always gives me a warm & fuzzy kind of feeling to see someone have their dream(s) come true.

After seeing all the blatant bias and just plain ole rudeness in these "so-called" debates, I may have to practice some serious will power and boycott everything Fox. I'm really that upset about it! I think I'll join the other "thirty-somethings" and start getting my TV news from the Colbert Report. :p

Do I want to see Fox fall on their face? No, not necessarily, because I'd like them to have to be around to apologize or change their tune. (Yeah, it's great to have "dreams" ain't it).

Stop watching ALL OF THEM, they ain't our friends, not just Fox! Tune if for the debates if need be in order to vote in their polls but that's it!

What is wrong with people? They are ALL hacks and liars, all MSM stations. THEY ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS, STOP ACTING LIKE THEY ARE!

Sorry, I am so frustrated.

This is serious guys, Fox has already lost a ratings night to CNN. This kind of thing hasn't happened to Fox News in about a DECADE.

Fox doesn't care, they're about to start enjoying 4 to 8 years of a Clinton obsessing ratings bonanza.

does anyone who supports Ron Paul believe FOX has any credibility?
if FOX was praising RP, I'd think I was supporting the wrong candidate.

I've never watched fox really.

But i think he's doing wonders to destroy their little shreds of "cred".

sadly fox news doesn't need to be fair, balanced, or have any credibility.

They are a written off expense to push propaganda and war. They don't have to make money and they don't from what I know of.
