Well, Fox has a pretty consistent message, as does MSNBC. Newscorp as a whole also has a pretty well controlled message.

Really? The Fox network alone has animated sitcoms that make fun of Fox News. Can you find a "well controller message" in the list of 20th Century Fox films?[1] The fact is, Newscorp is the most mercenary of them all, and only gets flack because they were so aggressive about seizing the right-wing cable news niche.

"The Fox network alone has animated sitcoms that make fun of Fox News"

The alternative is likely to get them sued. This is not surprising.

MSNBC definitely does not have a consistent message, other than one or two primetime programs, the rest of their lineup is all over the place.
