I'm pretty sure Barkley is a republican.   Here are some previous quotes from him:

 "Well, when I went off to college, the guys I used to hang with were pumping gas and voting Democrat. Today they're still pumping gas and voting Democrat. Guess the Democrats didn't do much for them."

"I was asked for years about being a Republican, probably because most black people are Democrats. My mother heard it once and called me and said "Charles, Republicans are for the rich people." And I said, "Mom, I'm rich."

Anybody that cannot or will not see what you just have said, must have their head up their ass....

If O'Bama is elected, this country is in for ONE HELL OF A RUDE AWAKENING!

By the way, I always thought Charles Darkley  was a rascist jerk anyway...but I am not much of a B-BALL fan, especially since it has been taken over by inter-city gangbangers.

Sorry, you're wrong.  FOX is in no way "massively" slanted to the right.  It certainly leans that way in its coverage, but no more than CNN leans to the left.  The idea that CNN has gone both ways is ridiculous; this network has always been in the tank for Dems and their causes.  They do so in a more subtle way than, say, MSNBC but they're still more slanted than FOX.  Even the Clintons admitted that FOX was the most fair network during the primaries.  All the others were tanking for Obama.  FOX is stigmatized for two reasons:  1.  The rest of the media, and Dems, have made a point of attacking FOX whenever and wherever they can in an effort to undermine the network as much as possible and; 2.  Next to other networks, FOX appears to be way right, which is just a factor of how far left the others are.

Think of it, Obama actually mentioned FOX in the last debate,  criticizing its covereage of him.  Of course, he could not point out anything that was untrue, but nevertheless he disparages FOX in front of millions of tv viewers.  Many of those people then go away with the notion that FOX is some kind of right wing radical network.   Why does Barack Obama even feel the need to call out one specific television network that really only draws a portion of the audience of the others combined?  Given the relatively small audience of FOX, a candidate for president, especially one who has the rest of the press in his pocket, should not be all that concerned with FOX.  Well, Obama is not concerned with the size of the audience; he's concerned with FOX actually getting to the truth of matters.  From this perspective, FOX is the only network that may actually dig into Obama's background.  It is the only network that will ask Obama tough questions.  It is the only network which has the possibility of damaging Obama, not from the size of its audience, but by revealing the truth about this guy.  In the same way, FOX may also completely blow the lid off the rest of the networks, discrediting everything they've stood for over the years and uncovering their biases to the masses.  This is why FOX is dangerous to the left.  Liberals fear the truth, facts which can pierce their emotional arguments like hot metal through melted butter.   FOX, therefore, has to be discredited.  It is part of the whole left wing indoctrinization mindset that starts in grade schools and continues into adulthood.  Liberals cannot debate openly in the arena of ideas; they have to use innuendo, conjecture and pie-in-the-sky nonsense to sell their philosophy.  They have to rewrite history where it is necessary, stifle conflicting views and demagogue as much as possible.

Just for a moment, stare at the left side of your computer monitor... no seriously... use this as a reference and look at approximately two or three dashes in from the left... see it?

Now, if you have a limited exposure to the real world, or are easily swayed by "just words," then the world looks like this to you:

Everything looks like it is right of center.  The problem is, the center is still in the center, it hasn't move... only your perspective has shifted.  It really looks like this...

You think, for instance, that strict gun control, or abortion are "moderate" positions because you've been fed words like "common sense" and "privacy" and "choice."  You think that legislating from the bench is "centrist," but that simply interpreting laws as to whether the law is constitutional is far right. 

Wake up.
