Is anyone watching missle reports?

I am curious as to context in terms of the networks vs online reporting on the N Korea missle failure.....is Fox slanting it to an Obama weakness? Is CNN or MSNBC slanting it to advantage? I read the announcement on Al Jazeera English via Twitter, seems to be straight out factual...

It's actually quite pathetic. They provide facts while US media outlets provide pure garbage in many cases.
