Bernard Goldberg Quotes


There are some programs on FOX that are not only fair and balanced, they're commentary shows. They don't have to be. But they brag about how fair and balanced they are. They don't cover rallies and tea parties. They cheer lead for rallies and tea parties. And as a journalist, I am totally against that.

Fox News was the first major television news channel in the United States to represent a partisan political position—in this case Republican conservative. Although this was a first for TV, in American history most newspapers were openly partisan until the latter half of the 20th century. The Third Reich reference was to Nazi Germany which had extremely partisan media control of German media of the day.
