It's funny that you seem to think that your state run media was more fair and balanced then the U.S. which was formed with Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press! It's a very good thing that most Americans do not agree with you at all. FOX crushes the competition on a regular basis because they are fair and balanced although with an admitted right lean. Hannity is an opinion piece show, so if you don't like his opinions you shouldn't watch it. Again, most Americans disagree with you! The "other" mainstream media outlets serve the American public over 90% negative news coverage regarding the Trump Administration and they kow-towed to the Obama Administration regularly as our country fell apart. Hardly fair and balanced. FOX continually and regularly has Democrats and left wing pundits on as a counter point. There is a reason most FOX News programs are Number 1 in their cable news time slots. Because they report actual facts of how great the U.S. is doing under Trump and not one hit-piece after another like most of the other main stream media companies. We know that you don't like the United States form of Democracy, Economics and Foreign Policy as your constant Anti-American and Anti-Trump rhetoric proves. But you're assumption that FOX News is anyone's only source of political information is extremely short-sighted and most likely, factually incorrect.

This is an easy one, again, one that we've gone over many times.
If you're a Trump fan, you have 1 mainstream television network to go to, FOX. Might as well call it TNN, Trump News Network. You can literally draw a line from what is said on FOX to a Trump tweet many times. For those that want a more fair and balanced, real news network, there are multiple options. So that viewership is split, vs. going to 1 place. Basic stuff.
As an example, look at mr-x's post today. 40% of blacks approve of Trump. First off, just looking at that at face value, if that makes sense to you, something is wrong with your brain. That 40% would approve of some racist that constantly signals to white racists. Then, of all the polls FOX can use, they use that one that says 40%. Not an average of all polls, not every other poll that has him in single digits or in the teens, they use 40%. I linked to those polls before. I also linked to one (pdf) where it has more detail, methodology etc, one you don't get with Rasmussen, that showed only 3% of college educated blacks support Trump.
Again, the usual using bad sources.
Took a quick look at Trump tweets, just retweeting a bunch of tweets, too many to count. And like I said earlier:
New Fox Poll shows a “40% Approval Rating by African Americans for President Trump, a record for Republicans.” Thank you, a great honor
