This is in response to Tommy Child who wrote a letter (Oct. 16) that responded to an earlier letter from me (Oct. 7) pertaining to bias at Fox News.

I do respect his opinion; however, I disagree and think he might have misunderstood some of the things I wrote about. He suggested that I was an Obama supporter because I came out and said that the people on Fox News, such as Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity, just bash President Barack Obama. That’s all they do.

Even more annoying is that those people can’t say how their group of fools are any better.

If all they can do for a whole hour is bash Obama, then I think that is a problem. They can disagree with him all they want, but why can’t they talk about anything else?

My opinion of Obama is that I sometimes agree and sometimes disagree with his policies.What I was trying to point out in my letter was my disagreement with how those on Fox conduct their programs.

Child pointed out that Fox News gets great ratings. Does that mean that everything they say is factual? Does that mean there is no bias when, clearly, there is? It makes me sick that they use ignorant fear tactics and war-mongering propaganda to prey on those who are basically scared.

Reporting needs to be driven by facts, not the fear that those on Fox News try to feed the public.
