So maybe you can answer why Fox is blocked in the UK is it because it is considered "Extremeist"? Also I would like to know too since I will be moving there in 4 month's

Not banned, most likely blocked by country IP, much as we can't view Jon Stewart vids on US site.
Yes, the TV license is an utter joke. I don't pay but they threaten you with a £1,000 fine or prison.

To be honest...
In all fairness I take ANYTHING that the MSM networks show as news with a grain of salt. Not Just Fox.

Agreed. I never know if i should laugh or cry when i watch the news or any other current affairs program in my country. Long life the Internet at least it gives us the choice wich lie to believe in and sometimes we stumble upon the thruth.

when you compare fox news to BBC news you quickly realise the wisdom in the old adage "you get what you pay for"!!

I have seen Fox news on cable, but only a couple of times, it's usually on after 1 am. The BBC is just a mouth piece for the lefties, the Climate change fanatics, and immigrant sob stories. But the BIG but is, they always want more of the taxpayers money. They get billions in license fees.
Whenever I go to Europe inevitably I always end up getting stuck into political and religious talks with the locals

When surveyed, most people actually watch fox for entertainment reasons, not news.
