Unfortunately all news is slanted to what the owner of the station wants. Anyone thinks that their favorite news channel is going to give unbiased political reports is looking at the world through rose colored glasses.

Thats exactly right!

I used to watch Fox News every day while I was working.....but I really got tired of the tabloid news they spent too much time reporting (Anna Nicole, Paris Hilton, etc). While they have some super hot news ladies (and Greta Van Sestren).....they are bat shit crazy, every single one of them. While I still think Fox News is the better of the cable news stations....I've seen them get much more into commentary than just reporting the news as of late, and it bothers me.

When I look at CNN and MSNBC, I see two channels that have a heavy liberal slant......sometimes its almost like they hate America, and want us to lose these wars.

All of these networks are guilty of the same thing, albeit from a different angle.

That would be my point as well - but when you post something from HuffPo and then complain about Fox News, don't be suprised Drew, when you get painted with that brush.

And calling me a yes man? Hey, I don't know Rich as anything other than the owner of this site.
