TIME TO KNOW ABOUT FOX NEWS
WHERE WAS BORN?
The Fox News Channel (FNC) is an American basic cable and satellite news television channel that was founded by media mogul Rupert Murdoch in 1996. In 2001 Roger Ailes appointed himself as permanent CEO of this news operation that was created as a Republican-centered alternative to CNN.
Fox News, the influential cable network, holds a unique place in the American media landscape, particularly for those on the ideological right. While Democrats in the United States turn to and place their trust in a variety of media outlets for political news, no other source comes close to matching the appeal of Fox News for Republicans.
STYLE OF FOX NEWS
Fox News Channel, American cable television news and political
commentary channel launched in 1996. The network operated
under the umbrella of the Fox Entertainment Group, the film, and television
division of Rupert Murdoch’s 21st Century Fox (formerly News Corporation).
Billing itself as the “fair and balanced” alternative to a media
environment that it characterized as having a liberal bias (another slogan was “We
Report. You Decide.”), Fox News debuted with a lineup of anchors that
included Neil Cavuto and Tony Snow
Despite its claim to be “fair and balanced,” Fox News forged strong
links with many leaders in the Republican Party and in the conservative
political establishment.
