If breaking news would favor the right, probably blogs and twitter are your best hope. What you won't see on PMSNBC or CNN:

On twitter: try #iranelection or #iranelections

Thanks for the tip.

Also, Try the BBC. It’s pretty awful when one has to find foreign news sources to get past the embargo and censorship in the US news media.

You have no idea the number of demonstrations that have gone unnoticed by the msm.
There was a protest march a couple yrs ago with about 1/2 million people and it never got a mention even on FOX.

Haven’t you heard? Everything in the middle east and North Korea is just a law enforcement issue now. The cops have got you covered.

CNN and MSNBC are not going to report anything until they get their talking points from the DNC and the White House on how to spin the Iranian election.

They already trotted out Jimmah Carter to explain nothing really changed.

Can't have that idiot Gibbs and the new readers reading off different sheets, can we?

Fox is great at covering stories, as long as the event occurs during its normal “news” coverage period. But if it hits during an opinion program, forget it!

We might as well being living in Venezuela as far as the media coverage of the government goes.

The libtards still spouting off about how the 2000 US election was stolen is getting annoying.

If Barry gets a caravan together on Monday and goes out for burgers, it will be BREAKING NEWS! with all the bells and whistles. Reporters will be breathlessly commenting on his choice of condiments and what it might say about his personality.

Nuclear war is boring by comparison. So “old school”. We've got Hope and Change now. Those pesky North Koreans should get with the program, lighten up, and have a little fun!

THEY MUST WAIT BEFORE INTERPRETING ANY ACTIONS IN THIS MIDDLE EAST NUCLEAR ISLAMIC STATE--ALL MUST BE SACRIFICED IN ORDER TO MAKE THE MESSIAH, BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, LOOK AS THOUGH HE KNOWS WHAT IS GOING ON!

Well on Twitter I found this interesting (not my quote): Only thing I saw was on CNN, just some “protests”

“CNN and MSNBC are not going to report anything until they get their talking points from the DNC and the White House on how to spin the Iranian election.”

I found this. It takes a few minutes to set up and might be on a loop that is frequently updated. Short commercial at the beginning.
