Then again, if it's simply a TV version of the Toronto Sun, it shouldn't really be that harmful...the Sun is pretty conservative, fun to laugh at, as long as you don't take it seriously. Fox has its moments like that too, actually

The Sun (and Fox now that I think about it) has always worried me because not only is it Conservative, but it also is targeted to a reading level slightly above illiterate. So not only is it pushing an agenda, but its pushing that agenda towards people too stupid to question what they read.
