My point is that all news organizations have a bias and because of the ownership, the vast majority of them have a liberal bias. FoxNews has been one of the very few that had a conservative slant. Now that appears to be changing.
In a perfect world, news media would simply present facts ands not give their spin on things.

Yes...we all do...based on life experience.
They're ALL politically correct...that's a BIG problem...there is no truth any more. That's the main agenda...offend none...include everyone.
Conservative "slant"? It was tipped completely to the right...sickeningly so.
In a perfect world...but we don't live in a perfect world and ALL the "news" is biased and propagandized.

If you think you get more NEWS on Fox than on CNN or MSNBC, you are sadly mistaken. You get a conservative does of commentary such as listening to Rush Limbaugh.
We are lazy....you cannot....it is impossible....to be informed watching tv. Reading, as it used to be, is required.

They ALL have a slant...trust none of them. Trust NO source.
Exactly...the "news" is there to draw eyes for the commercials and to promote someones agenda.
If you think you're getting REAL and UNBIASED news from ANY mainstream source...you are sadly mistaken.
All good points Rocky...it IS impossible to get real news from TV. And you have to be REAL careful with print too. I'd guess the truth often comes from you tube uploads.
It's very sad how the people are deliberately lied to.
