    The Most Biased Name in News

    It's a long read, but I found ithis article interesting.

    FAIR
    http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=1067
    FAIR is the national progressive media watchdog group, challenging corporate media bias, spin and misinformation.




    But the core of Fox's critique is the notion that the mainstream media just don't tell the conservative side of the story. This is the premise Fox executives start from when they defend their own network: If Fox appears conservative, they argue, it's only because the country has grown so accustomed to the left-leaning media that a truly balanced network seems to lean right. "The reason you may believe it tips to the right is you're stunned at seeing so many conservatives," Ailes once told a reporter (Washington Post, 2/5/01).

      Read some of that site, they sound pretty liberal themselves whilst trying to stoke the fires of "fair" media.

        I wish that they would just admit it, everyone knows they are on the right. They should at least pretend to be proud of it.

            When 90% of news sources were purchased by 6 big conglomerates, all news lost it's newsworthiness, and became dissemination stations of those 6's opinions.

              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

              Wasnt it LBJ that said something to that effect 50 years ago???? Or was it Agnew

              and MSNBC CNN CBS NBC ABC are any better

              that goofy ass hate olberman and the dyke that comes on after are just down right openly disrespectful and inflammatory to everyone not sided with them.

              Anderson Copper is a tool that just cant get his shit straight.

              And the nightly news anchors are now now better than any of the opinion show hosts on any network. You have to watch a ton of "News" to filter though all the shit and get the whole story. I do find fix to be the most centrist there is though.

              For the record I hate Rush Oriley and Hannity as well. So dont try to play that one

                The fact that Fox's "chat consistently tilts to the conservative side," wrote the Washington Post's Howard Kurtz (2/5/01), "may cast an unwarranted cloud on the news reporting, which tends to be straightforward."
                +1 but it goes both ways
                I'd say the news is straightforward on all the networks, but the the actual information reported sadly is pretty goddamn thin.

                *edit*

                            Hey I listen to NPR almost every day, they do have some neat info on stuff that the major out lets just ignore, but you have filter out the agendas that are subtle and not so subtle, to get to the info. Just like all the other news sources
