OutFoxed


Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.

1) How important is an independent, skeptical press is in a democracy like ours.
2) What's wrong with mixing opinion and fact in the news?
3) Besides favoring one political party over another, how else does bad reporting harm the public?
4) Can a news organization be liberal or conservative without being biased?
5) Is Outfoxed "good" journalism itself, or is also motivated by partisan politics?
