You're saying the CNN is biased in favor of liberals???

I actually watch CNN amd NBC the most, but it really irritates me when the liberals start yelling about FOX News as if there were no unbiased programs on that channel. I actually feel that Wolf Blitzer and Jack Cafferty on CNN are very biased to the left. I don't watch Hannity or O'rielly , but if I did I think I have the intelligence to filter just as I do with Blitzer and Cafferty.

Padcrasher,
Thanks for the objective info!! You certainly back up your points well with facts rather than diversion tactics such as: "But your people said this or that, what about that?"

There's an old saying about tell me who your friends are. Face it FOX is a partisan joke Wallace along with them. Pad Crasher provided all you asked for.

PADCRASHER - Please provide me an example from this show (preferably this morning's) that was not "Fair and Balanced". As I stated, I prefer to not be spoon fed by either the left or the right!
Interestingly, Chris Wallace defended Obama to Fox and Friends. (Okay, it was a year ago, but still.) They had (typically) edited an Obama sound bite to misrepresent the truth and he called them on it.

Media Matters - Chris Wallace criticizes Fox & Friends for "two hours of Obama bashing" in which hosts "distort[] what Obama had to say"

(If anyone isnt familiar with Media Matters, this entry is a good example of their thorough research of a topic.)

Another site that exposes Fox's bias day in and day out is the often funny News Hounds: We watch FOX so you don't have to.

It cracks me up that Fox - the #1 most-watched channel and a corporate division of the Fox Entertainment Group - has successfully convinced its followers that it's not part of "the mainstream media" - that it, like them, is embattled, angry and afraid.

Someone mentioned CNN as being obviously slanted to the left... are there any sites such as those linked above that regularly expose the liberal lefty bias of CNN?

I'm a moderate and they're ALL biased.Each channels "celebrities" skew them one way or another. I watch them all. Screaming and ranting that one is and yours isn't is ridiculous and petty, just like the extremists of both side. Fortunately, we're allowed to chose in this country what we want to watch and want to believe.
