whatever said:
And Hannity and Limbaugh did the same thing with Palin. I love this "liberal" media stuff. Its really entertaining to see people fall for this. Do individual journalists have biases? Of course, Gibson is one of them. But Fox takes it to a whole new level where its mandated from up top. I would say MSNBC is the only network that comes close to doing this on the liberal side. Yet they are still tempered by the fact that they are owned by NBC (as evidenced by them pulling Olbermann and Matthews from there election coverage). The fact that anyone could think that Fox presents a balanced view is scary and shocking. I think CNN is clearly the best at balancing its coverage.

Hannity and Limbaugh do not claim to be Journalist.... They are commentators. That is why people like Oberman do not bother me as much even though they are more extreme. It is the Obamamania under the guise of Journalism that pisses me off. O'Reilly is the same, he does not claim to be a Journalist. The "journalist types" at Foxnews do not seem biased to me. Namely Shepard smith and Greta (even though she is Fugly).
I like CNN alot because I feel Wolf Blitzer and Anderson Cooper are pretty good. I get the sense they prefer Obama, but it does not interfere with their reporting. I put CNN in that list because some of their other anchors do bother me.
