Which news network is the most unbiased?
 
They are all biased.
 
I don't think there's ever been an unbiased news source. It's always biased towards whatever the guy who owns it thinks. And I'd say most people's thoughts are open to the highest bidder.
 
I get most of my news from my radio, actually....twice an hour. No bias at all. Short on coverage sometimes, but I always have DP. ;)
 
Definitely Fox, it even says it on their logo.

All of them, it would probably be impossible to be completely non biased.
 
I voted other - namely my own eyes. :mrgreen:

I'm just not seeing "Most fair and unbiased news source?" anywhere in that logo. Is it written really really small?


edit: Wait.... I see "fair".
 
Al Jazeera and Wikipedia.

People always forget C-Span in these polls for some reason.

cuz it's boring and nobody watches it. Believe me, I've tried. And there isn't much room for bias when you just have a camera in a room with little else.

Exactly. There's nothing less biased than just sticking a camera in conference rooms and showing people what our politicians are doing and saying. I know it's boring, but at least it does't make crazy accusations against people. That's why C-Span gets a lot of respect from me, and I watch it from time to time.

I used to watch Washington Journal every morning until I had to be at work too early to watch it. That show makes it even better since they let callers all over America let their opinion be known.

That's why I like it. It's cut and dry facts. I don't really want to be entertained by my news sources, I want to be properly informed.

I agree. However you can have facts and you can have analysis. Facts are fragmented pieces of information that don't really tell you much on their own. Analysis helps you put those facts in context and build a big picture of what's going on. Unfortunately analysis is the part where bias gets introduced.

I suspect the Christian Science Monitor is the least biased. I haven't had a television in 15 years but I wouldn't say any of the "news" shows are remotely unbiased and most of the "entertainment" seems to be scripted by the DNC.

Aside from that moronic comment I agree that the CSM is one of the better news outlets out there.

It's without a doubt one of the best papers.
 
They are all biased. Each has an agenda. This has been a natural progression ever since the concept of infotainment. There is no objective informative news any more. If you want it you have to search for it.

I like CSPAN - and watching live some of the hearings and processions. Of course, yes it is rather boring but I'll take that over any of the hyperbolic ranting or smarmy opinon shows.

Agreed sir. I know a lot of conservatives would disagree with me but the last time I watched C-Span was when Bernie Sanders talked for god knows how long, **** was epic.
