DEFINITION OF A CABLE NEWS CHANNEL

Wikipedia defines Cable News channels thusly:  "Cable news  Further information: United States cable news
Cable news refers to channels which are devoted to current events 24 hours per day. The originator of this format from which the name derives is CNN (as well as CNN International and CNN-IBN), which originally stood for cable news network in reference to the then-new phenomenon of cable television. As satellite and other forms have evolved, the term cable news has become something of an anachronism but is still in common use; many other channels have since been established, such as BBC World News, BBC News, Sky News, Al Jazeera, ABC News 24, France 24, STAR News, Fox News Channel, MSNBC, Press TV, Russia Today, teleSUR and ABC News Now. Some news channels specialize even further, such as ESPNews (sports from ESPN), CNBC, Bloomberg Television and Fox Business Network (financial).
A term which has entered common parlance to differentiate cable news from traditional news broadcasts is network news, in reference to the traditional television networks on which such broadcasts air. A classic example is the cable news channel MSNBC, which overlaps with (and, in the case of breaking world-changing events, pre-empts) its network counterpart NBC News."

Wikipedia on FOX CHANNEL NEWS, writes: "Critics have asserted that both Fox's news reporting and its political commentary promote conservative political positions.^[3][4][5][6] Fox News Channel says that its political commentary and news reporting operate independently of each other and denies any bias in its news reporting.<sup>[7][8][9]".

There are those who believe they are getting 'fair and balanced' news on Fox News.;  They believe it because they are told it and, of course, the TV doesn't lie, does it?  Well, children, yes it does lie and Fox News, one of the biggest liars, equaled only by Rush Limbaugh and a few others on radio. Well, actually, Glenn Beck is really their poster boy.</sup>
