    That very well be the case but that isn't the point I was making. But you knew that already.


    Just search bias in the media and several surveys/statistics will appear which I already stated were at best questionable since most of them are bias themselves, so feel free to choose a source you trust. It is your claim they are so great where is an unbiased link proving that by the way?


    You singled out CBS, not me. :wink:

    Seems there's only one metric for evaluating the accuracy of any news outlet: Are they telling me what I want to hear and wish to be true? If yes, they are accurate, if no they are slanted or worse.

    because it's a good example of news that is relatively unbiased

    beck is a good example of rhetoric that has an extreme, irrational bias


    if you're a conservative, that's fox news, beck, limbaugh, hannity and etc

    So then you wouldn't be interested in hearing facts or the truth for that matter, you just want your own bias reinforced?

    By who's standard?

    Political bias is all extreme and irrational when it is properly placed in context with the truth and reality. This is the point, and you keep eluding it for some unknown reason.

    These people are not conservatives, they are republicans and/or neo cons. But that is a totally different topic all together.

    All I can say is somebody attacking FOX and but use MSNBC as an example of something better must be part of the problem and not any solution.

    Please read post #74, especially the paragraph with the bold print.

    you're mistaken, i'm not using msnbc as an example of something better

    i'm using the video because it contains the clips of fox news pandering to conservatives


    show me an example of what you think is corruption from obama

    So why not just use FOX News in their own words without dissected segments interpreted by the opposite corporate owned extremist propaganda machine?

    We seem to agree FOX is bias, the only thing we seem to be disagreeing on is the corporate owned liberal media is just as bias, they are simply targeting a different kind of audience at different levels and opposite degrees. The only people who seem to reject this fact is those who are blinded by their own bias.

    Fox News: Glenn Beck Left Network 'To Save His Ass'

    Fox News did not take too kindly to Glenn Beck's recent words about why he left the network.

    Beck, who left Fox News to start his own Internet TV channel, spoke at New York University on Friday. "If you stay in it too long, you become Norma Desmond,” Beck said about cable news. "I remember feeling, ‘If you do not leave now, you won’t leave with your soul intact."

    A Fox News spokesperson pushed back in an email to Politico's Mike Allen, saying, "Glenn Beck wasn't trying to save his soul, he was trying to save his ass. Advertisers fled his show and even Glenn knows what that means in our industry. Yet, we still tried to give him a soft landing. Guess no good deed goes unpunished."

    Beck left Fox News after a tumultuous two and a half years at the network. He drew high ratings, but his tenure wasn't without its share of controversy. Advertisers dropped Beck's show en masse after he called President Obama a racist, and tensions between Beck's camp and Fox News grew over other issues.

    The two groups decided to part ways in 2011. Beck's comments on Friday echoed remarks he has made before. "I'm so sick and tired of being in the system," he said when leaving Fox News. "I’m not going to play the game anymore.”

    0:33 - "i'm not a journalist"

    I'd like to see a South Park episode about Glenn Beck and Rachael Maddow.
