I dont care if its Fox,MSNBC,Print Media...
Most of these guys will edit video,put a spin on things or..
Even decide which stories to run or not run based on the agenda..
They want to push.
What ever happened to OBJECTIVITY? Just the facts. The temperature today is... the plane landed in... the Presidnet is speaking today at ... No interpretation, just facts. When I watch CSPAN I feel it is a more objective way to get the news, but you have to have a lot of time.

I think most media was this way until the 60's?
Someone might correct me but i think thats when more bias started..
Creeping into journalism.

The only bias that I have ever observed in a news meeting is the inbred bias of what constitutes a good story.
News meeting, at least at newspapers, are often contentious arguments about what should or shouldn't go into the next days paper and even once a decision is made to run a story, where it runs can be equally as contentious. There isn't any one set agenda, its a process of consensus between the various line editors, and the managing editors all of whom come to the table with their own biases and perspectives.
Most media is not bias. Some reporters may put their 2 cents in, but for the most part it's pretty fair. Fox news is the only outlet that is there for entertainment purposes only with twisted truths and false reporting going on.

no, they are all biased or 'leaning' one way or the other
MSNBC is very biased to the left, and has a lot of deception
cnn is slightly biased, but fair
fox leans to the right, but is balanced

What the hell is objective and who would want to read of hear it? If a media organization presented the "just the facts" as you laid it out, it would be nothing more than the reprinting of airline and political schedules.
CSPAN is great for what it does, but CSPAN doesn't do much in the way of in-depth reporting such as the Washington Post excellent serious on the intelligence establishment.
