If I were interested in missing little blond girls, I would then make FOX my station of choice...
I'm more interested in why...why do men behave in such an evil manner.....what is amiss with our society..

Nancy Grace works at CNN I believe.
 
So my question is, which of the major US TV media outlets do you consider to be the least biased?

The only US media i really pay attention to is CNN. But i wouldn't call it impartial, i prefer BBC.
 
I know I'll never be able to lure kids into a van. I went to my wifes cousins house for Xmas, and one of the kids there who had never met me, looked at me and turned to her mom and said "Mommy, he looks like a stranger".

That's why I dress like the Easter bunny.

LOL, Parent did a bang up job then
From a young age, i remember being warned not to speak to anyone who i did not recognise.
 
From my limited experience with these entities I would probably say CNN is the most reliable. But I think all of these are inferior and typically I depend on NPR, BBC, and WNYC.

I'm not the kind of guy she needs to keep her kid worried about. I always look menacing, and hardly ever smile(especially around other peoples kids, I don't want them to like me, because then I'll have to play with them). The ones the kids need to look out for, are the ones who look pleasant and friendly.

That is true, they always turn out to be the pervs.
 
Can we all at least agree that a live debate between Ben Stiller and Rachael Maddow would end up looking like this:

She is very monotoned, don't you think?
 
IMO, all of the news is biased, and based on sensationalism, so I take it with many molecules of salt.

I feel pretty skeptical towards the future of the west and the world when a majority on this forum actually believes Fox News is the least biased news channel. This forum should be an average reflection of regular people in the US, is it not? Even if not, the result still scares me.
 
I find it interesting that the two most biased news stations have the most votes for being unbiased. Fox news is extremely conservative based and CNN is completely liberal. It would be interesting to open it up to news stations of other countries and see what the result is. I've noticed that most of the US news stations look more to entertainment than journalism. I started watching the Canadian news stations or the BBC.
 
Wow, this thread was dug up from the grave! As far as CNN leaning left, they've got nothing on MSNBC. Since this thread was started, it's only gone further left, just as Fox has gone further right.
 
We all know FOX News leans to the right and NBC/MSNBC leans to the left. Any argument against this would definitely be a losing one. So my question is, which of the major US TV media outlets do you consider to be the least biased?

There is a difference between News and Opinion; FOXNEWS delivers two sides of the equation; fair and balanced as they like to say, and they haven't had to retract a story.

Their opinion shows are rightward leaning.

CNN was Saddam's putrid propagandist for years as Eason Jordan admitted, and is the network is amazingly biased. CNNi is some of the most disgusting programming; it is thee anti-American network, and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

It's no wonder FOXNEWS has a larger audience than MSNBC and CNN combined; they don't come across as hating the country, and break/report news the leftward stations refuse to. They report two-sides... fair and balanced. You could say they're the WSJ of the airwaves, another publication (Murdoch owned), that is growing while others are dying.

People are willing to pay for value.

Why aren't the C-SPAN channels an option? I know it's boring as all hell, but I don't think you can get any more unbiased than just televising the political process.

C-SPAN has few produced shows. They have "Washington Journal" every morning, but I can't see how anyone applies a bias to that, unless you want to call it "liberal" since it "isn't conservative." Mostly what that show does is have a few politicians, advocates, and experts talk about a subject and then take open phone lines on that subject. Pretty much the only reason why they would cut off a caller is if they say something offensive or if they make a comment that has nothing to do with the subject at hand.
