It’s sad today that you can no longer trust that the news you are seeing and hearing is not slanted towards one party or the other. To seek the truth one would have to spend 12 hours a day reading all the newspapers to come up with some truth. This new party line news media is slowly moving us in a dangerous direction of nothing more than a form of censorship cheating us out of the truth. Shame when one has to go to another countries news media to get some truth and I find myself doing this more and more.

I only listen to Rush Limbaugh. He is not slanted only tells the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth. And only tells me just the things I need to know. Everything that is wrong is Bill Clinton’s doings.

Just like the liberal media "myth"
People always seem to forget that abc,cbs,cnn,Fox etc are owned by GE,Disney,Time warner,rupert murdoch 3 of the biggest companies in the world, and also the largest donators to the republican party
As to always showing the negative side to things that is just vying for ratings, since it's sad more people want to see that then something positive

For what it's worth, a college journalism professor I had for a couple of semesters many years ago told me that if I really wanted true and unbiased reporting of the news, read the Christian Science Monitor.

You may want to investigate this a bit further. Other tha Murdoch, I'd be suprised to see major Republican support from any of these companies. GE is a bi-partisan supporter, they grease both sides. Be assured, they're news department is by and large anti-Republican, they're afraid of Republican control of the FCC. Disney's CEO, Michael Eisner is a large supporter for the Democrats. CNN, Time Warner, Ted Turner, I don't see him giving a dime to a Republican. Maybe he changed when Hanoi Jane found religion and lost him.

I just noticed the link I posted changes every time he puts up new article. The article that was originally linked to was in fact a story of how the L.A. Times, New York Times, and several other big news organizations were meeting with Kerry in private.
