Re: Media Bias
I know we mostly all agree that there is bias in CNN/Fox News, but leading up to the election the spin on both sides is not just oozing it's flooding both their front pages.
Samples right now:
assorted CNN front page headlines: 45 bizarre lines from Trumps last speech, Why Trump doesn't want to punish Saudis, Beta O'rourke supports impeaching Trump
not one positive spin headline towards republican or conservatives
assorted Fox front page headlines: Gray Lady Gripes - Unpopular Clinton told to be quiet by NYT board member, Texas Dems accused of asking non-citizens to vote
not one positive spin headline toward democrat or liberals.
Maybe this is just me, but it's frustrating that short of Reuters there just is no balanced news anymore. I mean I watch both sides, and I try to be objective, but I know I'm not. I just wish there were some journalists and media sources that you knew you could trust to be objective and present both sides fairly pro and con.
