    This is an op-ed polemic, and it's refreshing to see one so skillfully produced by filmmakers with a shoestring budget and meager access to mainstream distribution. A must-see movie, no matter what your politics are.

    Already a top-selling DVD thanks to PR support from moveon.org, numerous media outlets, political blogs, and even Doonesbury, Outfoxed argues that Fox News's pro-Republican bias is top-down.

    This furious finger-pointer's doc is so one-sided, it undermines its own integrity.

    A compelling and, no doubt, accurate look how the FOX NEWS channel does business. Entertaining and very funny at times, this is a must-see for regular viewers of 24 hour cable news. As another reviewer noted, the people that really need to watch this will not. Even if you are a venomous left-wing liberal who feels that you do need to see this, go ahead and watch it anyway. Why should you sleep better than me?… Expand
