Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The content of OUTFOXED may not come as a surprise to many long-time political activists, but this DVD will absolutely floor many people who tend to take their news for granted. In short, OUTFOXED takes on FOX News the same way Michael Moore's FAHRENHEIT 9/11 takes on the Iraq invasion - and produces some hard-hitting results. Testimonials and eyewitness accounts from former and current FOX News reporters and employees (some deliberately kept anonymous) help build the case against the channel's perceived right-wing bias and editorial censorship from the top brass at FOX, including owner Rupert Murdoch. Excerpts from FOX memos are also exhibited, but would have packed more of a punch if shown as originally distributed instead. The most damning evidence, however, seems to come from FOX News broadcasts themselves, which are presented in substantial quantity in this documentary. Although it can be argued that OUTFOXED has its own bias and agenda, the arguments it presents are extremely hard to dismiss. Highly recommended, especially for journalism students.
