All I have to say is that if you want the WHOLE story watch Fox! The others never even report things they don't want to be heard. It's like the attacks on BUSH - if they said it - it just had to be true! Part of the brain washing and dumbing down of Americans. Most don't even know all the facts of ANY issue because they stay tuned to crap or only watch local news.

I could show you clips of each one of them leaning right. I've witnessed it myself (but don't feel like tracking them down).

Rest assured, they go after the left just as much as they go after the right. Maybe not on every issue, but sometimes the left is just correct and vice versa.

I have been linked to that thing enough times and failed to go there past the first time. I still prefer to hear this stuff from Fox since they go ahead and tell some of the stories. Please don't look at the next thread I post because you will not be happy to hear the news.

So, I think CNN is trying to fill the vacant spot as the neutral news channel. They are not there yet, but that seems to be their desire. So, we would have MSNBC with bias towards the Dems, CNN - neutral and FOX with bias towards Republicans.

Lou Dobbs was independent, and I watched him a lot, but like his FOX colleagues his show was not "news", it was political commentary. That is what CNN is trying to get away from. Time will tell if they succeeded.
If CNN can actually start reporting the news as close to nonpartisan as possible and do real investigative journalism, I'll watch them a lot more then Fox. We will see.

If not for FOX, we never would have known about the ACORN expose....or Van Jones.
