My brother said something interesting to me once. He watches only Fox news (and Sun News when it existed here in Canada), and said his reason was because Fox News "Tells me what I already know". I think that sometimes people just want to watch what they like.
I shit you not - I started listening to Rush Limbaugh. Seriously. I do not like the guy and do not like what he has to say really, but I still listen, and sometimes I see his point. (There's another show on after his that I check out too sometimes but I forget the name, but he's similar to Rush but less bombastic).
Seriously. If I were your next-door neighbour I'd invite you over for a beer and make you site and watch some other news outlets with me. It's interesting! Then you can show me how to improve my guitar skills.
Peace.

I watch CNN 8 hours a day while working. From 9am to 5pm there is 0 news Mark. Only time there is news is if it is anything non political. All MSM (Fox included) have moved away from news and more into these pundit round tables where everyone sits and confirms each others points of view.
On the rare occasion that CNN tries to have 2 people on with opposing points of view the host always shouts down the conservative, their demeanor throughout the segment changes almost instantly compared to how they are for the rest of the hour. Past 5pm I cannot speak to how CNN or MSNBC hosts report or act but from 9-5 this is how it is every day.
