I agree. I mean, their motto says it right there: "Fair and Balanced."
Actually, I would assert that the early daytime, live news programs on both Fox and CNN are relatively unbiased, at least with the topics they choose to cover. Their prime time lineups lean pretty far left and right, but the daytime coverage isn't bad. MSNBC, on the other hand....well, they should just hang it up and go off the air.
I would generally agree with this, although the Beeb definitely leans to the left, and have being gushing out the anti-Israeli propoganda recently. Y'know that sort of bull**** where they show big reports of little Palestinian kids with their legs blown off, supossedly by Israeli troops. Yeah, the Beeb loves that stuff.
I agree! Their news during the day is by and large just straight news. The shows at night are not straight news. They are news analysis which is opinion.
So long as news organizations get money from either corporations or the government, there will be no unbiased news source. The best you could do is to find a middle ground: watch conservative but read liberal. For instance, watch Fox News (undoubtedly conservative) and read the Wall Street Journal (undoubtedly liberal).
