Has CNN been fair at all?

They're all over the map, so it depends when you tune it. Sometimes they're leaning toward Israel. Other times, they're leaning toward Hezbollah. Their reporter in Tyre, Lebanon is particularily irritating. But they do have more live coverage from the region than the other networks.

I purchased a subscription to the CNN Pipeline broadband product - it's the only way to get live coverage after midnight - with CNN International. I tried to get BBC World, but they are not selling access in the US. There are rumors they will be on DirecTV eventually. I hope DirecTV will carry Sky News too.

Thanks for the report about CNN. I just hate it when I have to turn there to see what's going on - when FOX flakes out on me and they are giggling about some meaningless crap while the whole world is going down in flames.

I find FOX has great live coverage.
I watch combat and missile attacks from before 4amm on live.
Their field guys are the best.

CNN is nothing but AlJazeera West.
