To a certain point, I am beginning to wonder how much the media market is really trying to play the public like fiddles just to stay in business...think of how much money all these folks are going to make this election year ALONE....hell I would set up a news station myself if I knew I could get paid covering this kind of history... ( and lie a little bit too....heheheh)
I have no idea. I think Fox News is biased to the right, ABC is clearly on the left, as is CNN. MSNBC has moved to the far left.

I watch MSNBC the most, but it is starting to make me too angry on a regular basis. CNN would be a good alternative if they'd ever stop showing worthless public interest stories. However, I don't even know if i'm willing to go there considering the absurdly anti-administration coverage that CNN.com has given to the war in Iraq.

The only answer is to get your news from a host of sources. I don't like right slanted news, I just want the damn news. Just report, don't give me your freakin opinion about the speech, just tell me what it said.

I usually check Fox News and MSNBC several times a day, and I combine that with Drudge and the Washington Post. I do look at CNN.com too. The WSJ is sometimes a strong source as well.

Despite the obvious left leanings, I really love the Washington Post. At least they try to veil their bias, and don't engage in blatant agenda engineering like the NYT. I simply can't understand how people view the NYT as a fair source anymore.
