What's this?

No apparently that is what you need. Your post made no sense

Selective reporting? Mostly they report news. The people I hear whine about selective reporting simply can not handle the truth.

Your second paragraph...what difference does it make "whose party" is in power. Biased and inaccurate reporting should ALWAYS be criticized. But Fox is the ONLY one (maybe MSNBC which formed to be a counter to fox) whose mission is to help a political party and its agenda win.

yes, the reader/viewer should not need to fact check every report from EVERY media outlet to make sure he/she is getting the truth, but neither should one blindly accept everything they hear, or ANYTHING they hear. And if you watch Breitbart or Fox news, you MUST fact check everything because they lie routinely
