Could be. Fortunately I'm not a defender of Fox.

Google certainly seems to be alienating their original support base. I'll have to spend more time with Bing.

I'd like to see work like this graph from The Quarterly Journal of Economics, an attempt to quantify bias. It was completed about a dozen years ago so MSNBC is not included ---
This graph contends that the specific program
Fox News with Brit Hume is as biased as
NBC Nightly News. I suspect most of us would view MSNBC News as more extreme than NBC News.
So comparing the FOX News program, not the entire network, to the MSNBC News program, not the entire network, a case can be made that MSNBC News is as based (actually more so) as Fox News.
Extrapolating from their main news program to the network as a whole, at least quantitatively is beyond me. But the QJoE data suggests a qualitative argument could be made.
Keep up the good work...
