I would have suggested the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) if they weren't on strike, but since they are, I think the best alternative to the type of news that is being produced in the US is BBC World News. Watch the American news channels, but then watch the BBC to see it without spin from either side.
How has CNN been getting conservative?

And what does someone's private affiliations (your source is Wonkette - "A blend of gossip and satire and things the author makes up.") have to do with anything?

Again, it's been shown that all news sources carry a bias.

Again, it's important to distinguish between opinion pieces and programming and news. All opinion programming is incredibly biased since it is opinion, not fact based.
