Fox is officially no longer "Fair and Balanced." New York reports the network decided to drop the slogan it's used for more than two decades after the removal of Roger Ailes, who came up with it in 1996 as cover for the network's right-leaning news. Fox News will henceforth be going with the slogan "Most Watched. Most Trusted." An unnamed source tells Mashable that while "Fair and Balanced" is out as a slogan, it will continue to be a kind of "editorial mantra" for the network. (More Fox News stories.)
