And MSNBC has Pat Buchanan.
It doesn't change the focus of their subjects. Fox takes conservative ideas and lets Combs argue against them. MSNBC takes liberal ideas and lets Pat Buchanan argue against them. But neither channel really presents the other side. It's not as if these channels are reporting all the news and just giving you a liberal or conservative slant on it. If you were to watch Fox and then watch MSNBC, you would think they were each covering news on a different planet, because there would be very little overlap of news reporting. They each only report targeted news stories and discuss targeted issues which fit with their viewpoints. It's not really news, it's more commentary.
If you want a real news report, watch the BBC or PBS news where they actually report the news and are not worried about ratings. You will never get a true news report on any station that has to raise money by advertisements/commercials.
