Fox News, Banned from Using the D Word?

Fox News has twice demonstrated a fear or apparent ban on the use of the D for Democratic when trying to share news that doesn't favor the Republicans.

Media Bistro.com posted the below pic that shows that even though most polls are favoring Democrats, Fox News decided to go with the "one party" label. Is this a statement on the overall lack of intelligence that Fox News feels its views have?

In addition, Fox tries to indicate via the words that the GOP has the lead in a race for Tom Delay's Seat, but polls, and the channel's own commentary, show that the GOP candidate is behind by 8% points. Click here for the story and video.

Everyone knows that Fox News is slanted Republican but in desperation are they starting to spin outright lies to try and trick the electorate or is it just incompetence?
