Which of these do you think is the most unbiased?
 
I noticed no Fox.

Odd, since fox is the only one out of that group that actually has a large presence of the opposition on their roster. Juan Williams, Bob Beckel, etc etc etc...these aren't little names either, and they don't go with any agenda. They speak their mind, they have debates. Is it right leaning? Sure is, but they at least allow the opposition.

I can't tell you the last time I've seen a single Libertarian/GOP/Independent on any of those channels. I don't believe I've seen one allowed to have a dialogue on there, nevermind me a member of their shows.

I'd say Fox. They allow opposition, and have multiple paid hosts that are major left wing columnists that are well known. The day MSNBC has a regular conservative in their roster....well hell will freeze over. Can't have those pesky rightists potentially offering different views to the sheeple.

The only unbiased media outlets are the user created community sites like Reddit. Heck, despite Huff Po's clearly progressive, anti-gun stance at least they still cover everything.

Unless you're taking it ALL in, you're being lead astray.

Anytime you have a channel or source that's geared toward 24/7 or mass-pool news broadcasting - they will have to fill the time with commentators and their opinions. It will be biased no matter what. People who flock to 24/7 media sources want entertainment/news . . . not just news.

So - none of the above for 500 please, Alex.

Mass-market journalists forgot how to sever themselves from their jobs long ago. It's all subjective - objective news is dry and quick.
 
I am sure they all have their moments.

He was talking about News channels, not spin zone comedy channels. however, I am convinced that CNN, MSNBC and Bloomberg are also all spin zone networks under better disguise

LOL. You get a like for the analogy.
 
All modern media sources are biased, it doesn't matter if they're left wing or right wing, they're all bad. There is no one out there whose primary objective is to simply present the facts to the public, everyone has an agenda.
 
I like the publicly supported TV station the best. They seem to be the most unbiased.

Looking up a YouTube video(I suspect you mean the stuff from the movie Network) to show the flaws of TV news has to be one of the great moments of irony ever. I hope it was intentional.
