No it just seems like that to the left because they don't tell liberal lies.

Well, yes and no. Tabloid journalism refers to newspapers that regularly focus on sensational stories, with gossip columns and fairly simplistic (and frequently jingoistic) editorials. Innuendo, scandal, and slander bordering on libel are common fare. In all those senses, I think one would be pretty hard pressed not to see much of what FOX News as tabloid.
On the other hand, in a literal sense of the term, tabloid journalism is usually a phrase reserved for certain kinds of print media, especially newspapers in a smaller physical format (hence "tabloid") than traditional newspapers (broadsheets). Only in that sense is FOX not tabloid journalism.
Hope that answers your question.
Cheers.

Yes.
It has become an accepted fact that Fox News is the most biased network on television. They enjoy moderate ratings mainly from the far right fringe and their love for Bush and for their attacks on Obama and all things liberal.
Now that the election is over and the country finds itself facing serious economic problems because of the past policies of George Bush, the time for divisive retoric is behind us. Yet Fox News continues to pander to the right wing base. People don’t want to hear Hannity or Beck relentlessly attack liberals or listen to Bill O'Reilly spin every story to put the most unfavorable light on Barack Obama and his administration.
The only people who continue to watch Fox News and will continue to watch Fox News are Far Right Loons who resort to threats and violence against people who do not agree with their warped opinions. It’s absolutely the most vile news channel on television. Bill O’Reilly will continue to be known as “Bill-O the clown” and Fox News as “faux news, fixed news, fixed noise, fox noise, or fake news."
O’Reilly has a hard time booking legitimate guests and you see the same tired, conservative panel on the Factor night after night nodding their heads and agreeing with O'Reilly. They smile, nod, and tell Bill how smart he is and then it’s off to the next segment. Then after the commercial he shamelessly hawks his latest book.
Fox News is incredibly tedious and predictable, not to mention boring. People who want unbiased hard news coverage and balanced opinion/commentary should watch something else.
For those of you who’ve been told by a Right Wing Loon that Fox News is all fair and balanced, don’t believe the hype. Be your own person and think for yourself. Watch it for a few days and make up your own mind. I think you’ll be shocked at the bias that is on that network.
