Do you believe the top cable news networks choose their wording, timing and duration of stories based on their political bias? Which ones, if any, do this?

CNN
MSNBC
FOX

If so, feel free to provide examples of such bias.

If not, you might be delusional. :)
 
Yep, you might just be. lol

Well, that would be you since you think CNN and MSNBS aren't politically biased. I mean --- really?
 
Your response shows your bias.

Your circus, your monkeys.
 
They're all biased, though in my personal opinion the real problem with CNN is their ****ty standards for journalism.

Every news station, cable or not, is biased. The decision on what to actually report on is a bias.

It is a little more complex than that, but editorially at least, they all are. That is dwarfed by their bias towards profits however, and all 3 do a reasonable job in straight news reporting. Not perfect by any means, but nothing done by humans is ever perfect. Mistakes will be made, but I do think most are honest mistakes. Not working for any of them means I do not have any actual insider knowledge, so this is all supposition on my part. I like to be clear when I am basing things on evidence, and when I am basing them on supposition.

They all do. The question is to what extent?

IMO, Fox and MSNBC are USUALLY the worst, but there are exceptions. I tend to ignore them all unless a less biased outlet serves the same story up and, more importantly, it make sense.

Asking for examples of proof by example seems like a silly demand. Aren't they obvious?

In my opinion, they all tell their version of the events, and it has to go along with their sponsors. None of the 24 hour news networks just deal in facts and objectivity. You have to go to the written word for that, for which I trust reuters to give it to the world straight.

Fox arguably has a conservative bias. They like to pretend they don't, but there's a reason why Trump praises FOX News and CNN causes sneers and lip curling. MSNBC definitely has a bias. I could not stand the way they covered Bernie last year. All liberals who praise MSNBC for telling the "truth" in the Trump era, should try being on the business end of their gun, when they have memos from upstairs to destroy your campaign.
 
They all 3 have. If you really want non-biased news the only one that delivers that is PBS nightly newshour. Just news no commentary.
 
FAUX News - hands down. Unprecedented bias, with their creation, promotion, and participation of the Tea Party.

Every news channel I can think of off the top of my head on tv right now sucks complete ass.

Where is the option for "all of the above"? Just realized you can vote for all choices and I did. No proof is needed in a question where the answer is so obvious.

You could try to form an argument with CNN but you would be woefully wrong. Trying to claim MSNBC is not biased isn't even possible to argue.

Now you understand. That's why the left leaning mainstream media constantly make decisions to report anti-Trump, anti-Trump, anti-Trump.

I'll give FOX and MSNBC credit for the fact that they really don't try to hide their bias. The left leaning mainstream media try putting on heirs that they are unbiased when they clearly are and that is just plain out wrong and misleading to do.

The real issue is a president and WH who lies every day rather than media outlets who make an occasional error in reporting.
 
I voted for D; all of the above ............................... oh, **** ............................. :lamo
 
I see we still have a handful of delusional people here.

We're not talking about making errors in reporting -- we're talking about obvious political bias. ModRight is correct. Trying to claim MSNBC is not biased is completely ridiculous, head-in-the-sand thinking.

CNN fired three reporters this week for reporting a BS story. Without giving them too much positive credit, I haven't seen either of the other stations do that.

The real issue is this thread discussing bias in the media.
