Did any of you watch Fox News' coverage of the DNC this week? They might as well have filmed it from the Karl Rove bunker, and used Bill Owens himself as guest anchor. Really shocking stuff -- and some other people who thought so would like to develop a counter for it:

A group of progressive media activists covering the Democratic National Convention in Boston plans to launch a new television network to counter the conservative news coverage they see on Fox News and CNN.

The group includes one of the producers of the Clinton documentary, The Hunting of the President, and the author of a book about corporate influence on politics, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy: The Truth About Corporate Cons, Globalization and High-Finance Fraudsters. Also on board are a veteran record producer, multimedia producers for the Democratic Party's website, leftist bloggers and the former head of the Dean Media Team Network, which produced online ads for the Howard Dean presidential campaign.

So it could require a little channel-flipping, but perhaps we might someday really get some 'Fair and Balanced' coverage...
