I'm as old as many people in TV and I can remember when ABC, NBC, CBS and the newspapers were fair and balanced ( no pun intended). Now days I dont think so. In my mind there is no doubt that the vast majority of newspapers are left wing IMHO. Also I think that all they want to report is bad news and disasters and crisis. I think you cant even make the news by killing your neighbor, you have to kill them and eat them or worse to make the news.
So when I read the Daily Sun and get a view skewed to GOOD news even though I know it is skewed I get a kick out of it. Remember my view is from 2500 miles away. So anyway when I see people complaining about the Daily Suns Good news bias, I laugh. Benj
Benj.

I agree about the "yellow journalism" and the inflammatory reporting. It sells papers and air time and destroys my sleep. I obsess about a mother killing her infant in a microwave, who wouldn't.

The Daily Sun is owned by the Morse family who are Republicans and the Orlando Sentinel is owned by a Democrat entity. If you know these basics, it helps to sort the two out.
