Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting

Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), formed in 1986, is a left-leaning media watch group that works against and documents media bias and erroneous reporting. First published in 1987, Extra!, FAIR's bimonthly magazine, reports current media bias, censorship, and effects of media consolidation. Covering a variety of social issues, FAIR addresses news coverage that it finds biased with rebuttals.

In May 2002, Jeff Cohen, FAIR's founder, left the organization to work as a producer on Phil Donahue[?]'s short-lived liberal talk show on MSNBC.
