    News reporting is always biased, but it seems that there are very few that are biased on the conservative side. It would be nice to have a balanced view of the news, but it's probably not possible.

    Fox News is neither liberal or conservative. It has become a magazine, not a news, show. They spend most of their time either talking about some aspect of a movie star or entertainer, or covering the latest murder mystery in a town no one ever heard of.

    Dave and Bossman's comments reminded me of something I'm surprised nobody brought up here.

    Check out this link:

    Notice how the "journalist" shows no objectivity, but actually argues with the man she's interviewing and starts mimicking the Dems' talking points.

    This particular clip shows the reporter after the cameras are turned off. Notice how dismissive and condescending she is to the people she's talking to.

    That completely destroyed whatever credibility CNN had in my mind.

    What a rude and angry bunch. No say? It is called their vote.

    I don't blame them a bit for being angry, but I didn't see anybody being rude.

    NBC, CBS, ABC, NSNBC, CNN, Newsweek, Time, NY Times, Washington Post are all boot lickers of "bo" as are a number of those who post on this Forum.

    You can also add the Atlanta Journal-Constitution & The Mobile Press Register. Just about any newspaper will be slanted leftward. That's not to say that there aren't any unbiased newspapers out there. It just remains to be seen.

    Ever read the Oklahoman or the Tulsa World? They are very right leaning.

    Why oh why?

    It makes sense you would need to go to the "Red States" to find right-leaning papers. The unfortunate thing is that both coasts dictate who wins the elections, for the most part. The press on both sides of the country is solidly leftist and unfortunately people buy into it.
