In 2004 , the inner operations of WTTG during the station 's first years under News Corporation 's ownership were scrutinized in Robert Greenwald 's documentary '' Outfoxed : Rupert Murdoch 's War on Journalism '' . The documentary , through a panel of former WTTG journalists and staffers , claimed that following Rupert Murdoch 's acquisition , WTTG 's news reporting became biased and sensationalist . The former WTTG employees claimed that they were ordered " from the top " to air an uncut tribute to Ronald Reagan from the 1988 Republican National Convention ; they were told to run a piece that " rehashed the whole matter of Senator Ted Kennedy 's deadly car accident at Chappaquiddick " which had " zero news value " ; and there was an obsessive attitude over airing stories related to wedge issues such as race relations and AIDS
