Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism

Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism is an exposé of cable and satellite news channel Fox News and the perceived right-wing bias that has led many to question the network’s claim of being ‘fair and balanced’.

Filmmaker Robert Greenwald chronicles a range of evidence, including the ways in which the network spins stories to appear more favourable to the Republican Party agenda, particularly around 2003, when the United States invaded Iraq under the presidency of George W. Bush. He speaks with a number of sources, including veteran television journalist Walter Cronkite and future senator Bernie Sanders. Former Fox News contributors such as John Du Pre and Larry C. Johnson also offer their perspectives on the network and its shortcomings.
