That might work, only you CAN compare shit to diarrhea. For example, they both come out your ass, they both stink, they are both waste products produces by your body, etc etc.
I've seen both Fox is the US and the BBC in the UK.They have little in common. Fox aims at the lowest common denominator.EG those people who not only think Sarah Palin is deep, but that their president is both a Muslim and a Socialist. They are also unable to distinguish him from Tiger Woods.
The BBC and our equivalent in Australia,the ABC and SBS are controlled by charter,set by parliament. Here the lunar right has always accused the ABC of bias,when they're really upset about reasonable balance and objectivity.The commercial news is beyond the pale,and I seldom watch it.
I wasn't saying that BBC and FOX where the same. Far from it. I was just pointing out it was a very bad comparison to use.
