The study finds that Fox is definitely biased and conservatively biased. More importantly, however, it finds that is is less biased than many other liberal media outlets. To read more and see how your favorite publications and programs measure up, you can read the original Businessweek article at: Businessweek.com or you can search the web for reprints of it (here is one )

Interesting read. The study really focuses on just one aspect -- and I'm not too sure how reliable that aspect is as an indicator. If I were going to attack the study, that's where I'd do it. However, the results sounded about right. Based on what I know about the various organizations listed in the study, the results seemed to be just about dead-on.
