What People Are Saying
"an obsessively researched expose ... an unwavering argument against Fox News that combines the leftist partisan vigor of a Michael Moore film with the sober tone and delivery of a PBS special."
-Robert S. Boynton, New York Times

"pulls no punches in condemning Rupert Murdoch's Fox News Channel as little more than a mouthpiece for the Republican Party ... Greenwald's documentary is, if anything, understated. It's only the tip of the iceberg."

-Charlie Reina, ex-Fox News employee

"the network looks more and more like a total propaganda system ... whose exclusive goal is the dissemination of fear, confusion and disinformation designed to serve the ends of the governing regime."

-Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com

"it's a scathing -- and compelling -- indictment of the bias of America's most-watched cable news network."

-Stephen W. Stromberg, Salon.com

"Watching Bill O'Reilly's belligerent, boorish 'interview' with Jeremy Glick, whose father died in the attack on the World Trade Center and who came to oppose the administration's military response to 9/11, is enough to make you wish that the ghost of Joseph Welch would enter the studio and inquire, at long last, after Mr. O'Reilly's sense of decency."

-A.O. Scott, New York Times

"You should watch 'Outfoxed.' It's a great movie that says why people like you say things like that on this television station."

-Howard Dean speaking to Sean Hannity on FNC's Hannity & Colmes

"'Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism,' a brilliant documentary by director Robert Greenwald, does a wonderful job at chronicling how the network misrepresents facts, manufactures terror and slanders liberals and adulates the President, all with the sole purpose of advancing its right-wing agenda. The film uncovers daily internal memos that outline conservative talking points, nonconformists that are threatened with their jobs and correspondents that often do not even pretend to be impartial."

-Darryl Cramer, DemocraticUnderground.com

"What Michael Moore did to the Bush administration in 'Fahrenheit 9-11,' producer-director Robert Greenwald does to Fox News in "Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism. ... Greenwald's film provides stimulating evidence of how thoroughly news can be skewed, politcal agendas served and a climate of fear created by a news net selling itself as an objective information service but in reality offering little distinction between news and commentary."

-Variety

"'Outfoxed' demonstrates in painful detail how one media empire, making full use of the public airwaves, can reject any semblance of fairness or perspective, and serve as the mouthpiece of right wing conservatives, fully relishing its role."

-Alternet

"a documentary Edward R. Murrow would have been proud to call his own."

-Charlotte Observer

"disguising Brit Hume, Bill O'Reilly, Neil Cavuto and Sean Hannity as neutral observers -- not to mention Murdoch, Roger Ailes and the rest of the Fox management -- is like putting a chicken suit on the predator in the hen house. We can pretend all we want, but when the chickens go missing, we already know whodunit."

-Minnesota Daily

FOX NEWS Reaction

"Any news organization that doesn't support our position on copyright is crazy. Next week, we could take a month's worth of video from CNN International and do a documentary "Why does CNN hate America?" You wouldn't even have to do the hatchet job Outfoxed was."

-Roger Ailes, Fox News CEO

"It's unfair, it's slanted and it's a hit job. And I haven't even seen it yet."

-Eric Shawn, Fox News Reporter

"rank propaganda ... the distorted work of an ultra-liberal filmmaker"

-Bill O'Reilly, pathological liar

"a third-rate hack job"

-Brian Wilson, Fox News correspondent

"a cheesy little so-called documentary about FOX News Channel, given the cutesy title 'Outfoxed.'"

-John Gibson, Fox News anchor

"Bring it on!"

-Neil Cavuto, Fox News anchor

"To say that this network promotes the Republican view, not the conservative view, but the Republican view is like saying that the pope is Catholic. It's self-evident."

-Neal Gabler, Fox News contributor

"They're on somewhat solid ground when they talk about -- if you look at some of the talk shows, the conservative hosts are much better at demonizing the Democrats than the liberal hosts of those shows."

-Jane Hall, Fox News contributor
