Just as ridiculously partisan and coloured with rage as Fox News itself. Redundant in 2014.

Fox is the highest profile network for this type of journalism but most of them do it to some level or another. That's why I get all my news from the voices in my head.

The real problem is not Rupert Murdoch. It's that people are not smart enough to realize that "television news" is an oxymoron, not just Fox News. The filmmakers here may be well-intentioned, but it's kinda hard to solve a problem if you don't even fully understand it

If you watch it it's probably already preaching to the converted, but it's not as if anything the documentary says is wrong at all. It just shows a lot of examples of Fox's hard right bias, so watch it if you want to be angry.

I don't disagree with much of what is said in this documentary, but the way it's presented (and the lack of convincing evidence) makes it simply a bad liberal propaganda film.

state sponsored propaganda that imagines a dystopic present where fox news is the only syndicated news network available to the public. be prepared for compilations of out of context fox news clips that robert greenwald picked up off the daily show's cutting room floor, and liberal tears from dnc mainstays that argue its unfair when the guys across the aisle use the same dirty tricks as them

People who still rely on Fox for information are like those Japanese soldiers who hid out in caves 'til the 70's.

"Outfoxed is effective at undermining the no-news-all-screaming FOX News Channel and giving it a taste of its own medicine." - Ed Gonzalez

Outfoxed catalogs the bizarre reality that the fox news channel has conjured around itself and then perpetuated publicly. I walked away from this film pondering what kind of person subscribes to O'Reilly and company knowing their tactics of agenda based current affairs. It's ironic that the highlighted Democratic mistakes used to retain the partisan viewer base affects the (American) viewer, regardless of political leaning, in a real world way. Its a disappointment a film like this can exist.

I suppose at the time as one of those progressive propaganda pieces, it could have had relevance, but as time has aged it, everyone already knows these things (and did back then). Yes, Fox News is junk and totally a mouthpiece for Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch's agendas, but you get the sense that they whipped it together in about a week with iMovie and a couple of songs they had lying around. The interviews are alright, and Jeremy Glick comes off very, very well, but it's seriously dated.

There is probably nothing here you don't already know, but at least the presentation is somewhat amusing.

It's scary how much corporate and political hacks can influence the news, and thus elections.

Pretty well presented case against Fox News. Points taken off for singling Fox out and not more harshly attacking the larger destructive American institution of cable "news." But I suppose there's always The Daily Show for that..

Some of the footage is hard to argue with, but it's tiring to be beaten over the head repeatedly with information that Fox News is the communication arm of the Republican Party.
