Fox is about one step to the right...NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, MSNBC, CNN range from 5 to 20 steps left. Every network says its in the center. Technically none are.
Let me give an example. When WBBM in Chicago (affiliated with CBS) broke the story about the Italian hostage shooting in Iraq, they only reported that U.S. soldiers had opened fire on the reporter's car and that the matter was under investigation. I flipped on Fox to find out about the whole roadblock situaton.
If WBBM had been reporting a similar story about American hostages in another country, the story would have only said that they were shot after running a roadblock.

succinct and close to the point. even with its slight rightward bias, Fox is still a lot closer to the "center" than any of the other mainstream outlets
