That's pretty sad.

Let's not fool ourselves, though, and assert that the other networks aren't biased.

There's a difference between "bias" and outright lies.

We all have "bias", based on everything that we are, all that we have learned, everything we have experienced, etc. In every decision we make throughout our lives, we exhibit "bias".

Any media enterprise, despite their best efforts is going to exhibit "bias". Primarily because there are human beings involved. A newspaper decides not only how to write a story, but what picture to use, where it appears on the page, etc. All of these decisions, no matter how objective one tries to be, will reflect "bias" in one form or another.

In addition, the news media has it's own culture and personality. There is a competitiveness to be "first" to break a story. News outlets tend to follow a 'narrative" that develops out of each news story or incident--not out of political bias, but out of laziness and because they think they are "giving people what they want".

When people talk about "bias" in the media, they often are referring to some suspected "conspiracy", a conscious and planned effort to present only a certain viewpoint, or to distort facts and reality to present a false view that supports a specific agenda or ideology. That's much more insidious, and fairly infrequent.

Sometimes this can be relatively benign: Doing news features on Pearl Harbor, for example, on ABC to generate interest in a new Disney "Pearl Harbor" movie, for example (although one could make the case that is not "benign" at all, and I would certainly listen).

But, in one place in particular, there is documented evidence that the people running the news (not the opinion shows like O'Reilly, Hannity, et al) DO consciously lie and distort the facts to support one political party or ideology. That is Fox News. From memos from the VP of news operations specifically outlining how news stories are to be slanted, to identifying disgraced republicans as "Democrats" on numerous occasions, by constantly showing distorted graphics like the one I displayed--the list goes on and on.

So while you might assert that "other networks" also show "bias", you will need to show a lot more evidence to maintain your comparative trivialization that "everybody does it".

Because, while other media outlets are not pure, NO ONE "does it" like Fox.
