| #7 CharlesL. Ponce de Leon is associate professor of history and American Studies at California State University Long Beach. that says a lot right there. Long Beach is a hotbed of teh liberal gheys. NTTAWW being ghey, but in this community you wouldn't likely find one who watched Fox News without being Oppo Research |

| #6 He wants the news reader to confirm his beliefs no matter how illogical (nuanced) or totally wrong (complex) they are. |

| #5 Naw - he wants the newsreader to tell him what is important and what to think (that's the nuance part) and to make simple things seem much more complex (and nuanced) then they really are (that's the complexity part). And guests on MSNBC, CNN, ABC/CBS/NBC are just as opinionated if not more so - it's just that they don't show you the other (non-liberal) side to contrast them with like Fox does. |

| #4 I think I see two of his problems. He wants nuance and complexity in news reporting. In other words, he's way more intellegent than the rabble. |

| #3 ...and Fox News isn’t about nuance or complexity, the things I look for in news reporting and analysis. 'nuance and complexity' = left-wing BS. Apparently, reporting facts is not something news organizations should be doing anymore. |

| #2 The prof might have been a slow learner if it took him 6 weeks to figure it out. |

| #1 Weak opinion piece that says Fox is Fox. Professor was probably caught by his wife with his pants down while watching the Kelly file and had to write something to cover his butt and save his marriage. It was research sweetie, I'm gonna skewer the vile Fox News, you'll see. |
