The
news on Fox (not the other shows that are explicitly
opinion shows) is slightly right of US center. Very slightly. There have ben several university studies of broadcast media, and they seem to land the major outlets similarly. Fox is slightly right, NPR is slightly left, and all the other TV/radio outlets are left of NPR. On the one I most recently recall, NPR, while left, was also closest to the center—followed by Fox, actually (Fox is considerably less "right" than CBS is "left" for example.
Just offering a reality check, though when virtually all the other media is (editorially) an echo chamber, it probably seems farther right than it actually is. Again, the actual NEWS shows, not crap like hannity, o'reiley, etc.
I don't watch Fox—or any TV news-myself, though I listen to NPR every morning.
