Despite my realization that much of what I read contains liberal bias, I read it anyway. However, there are two publications I absolutely will not read because they are so devoid of journalistic integrity: New York Times and Newsweek. If either were honest and advertised themselves as left-wing advocacy outlets, then I might re-consider. I read New Republic every once in a while. But attempting to pass themselves off as objective while spewing leftist propaganda is serious fraud and I just don't care to aid and abet them in it.

I have a subscription to Newsweek, but only because I get it for free. (Basically, they spend their money to give it to me, and anything that takes money - and thus power - of out their pockets is fine with me.) And their left-wing bias has truly been jaw-dropping throughout the buildup to this war. Since the war actually started, of course, i've given up on the weeklies, whose lead times are too short to be up-to-date, but not long enough to allow any meaningful "analyses." They've just been piling up on my desk.

I read the Village Voice every week for precisely the reason you note - they call themselves liberal and make no bones about it.

The funny thing about the Voice is that they are usually far more open-minded than the self-proclaimed "non-partisan" NY Times. What a worthless fish-wrap that monstrosity is.
