I expect any news channel will have some bias or another. It’s part of nature.

I do find that serial delivery by TV is a poor way to get news though. The web is much more suitable to news. I can skip past the ‘slow speed bronco chase’ and ‘missing intern’ and billions of ‘interest rates have changed - cash out some of your equity’ commercials and get to news that interests me.

I realize it has become reality, but it should not be.

I remember an instance, years ago, when I was a radio reporter. I personally disagreed with a piece of legislation, and the state representative who introduced it and argued for it on the the floor knew it. The next day he called me to express his appreciation for the unbiased report I had given about it. He told me how impressed he was that there was no twisting of his words or taking his words out of context by manipulating what parts of his taped responses I used.

I guess I'm old school.

The web is much more suitable to news.

It is, and how I get mine.
