I just took a look at the MSNBC web page to get a glimpse of the day's headlines. This is what I found:

Soaring Food Prices May Persist

Pump Prices at New Record Highs

April Consumer Sentiment at 26-year Low

Wall Street Tumbles after GE Outlook

Travel Troubles: American Cancels 595 More Flights

Sigh.

I think I'll go outside and play in the sun.

Thats because every one is depressed about President Bush's term of office coming to a close.

No one's laughing. Stick to IT. Comedy is not your forte.

You're so right. I feel much more optimistic after going to FUXnews.com and wondering what that image is on Dick Cheney's sunglasses and the police say a stripper stole an identity to buy exotic cars!

Or the Communist News Network.

It all depends on your perspective.

The liberals like CNN because it leans left and the conservatives like Fox because it leans right.

Neither one is 100% unbiased. They report whatever will garner them the highest ratings.

Plain and simple.

I prefer the "STAR" and the "National Enquirer" for all of my news.

FAUXNews said the same things just this morning on their "SCROLL OF FEAR" at the bottom of the screen.

CNN, MSNBC are biased to the left. Fox is biased to the right. The big difference is, Fox lies, and is much further right than the other two are left.

For me, the big difference is their claims otherwise, and their general lack of clarity in differentiation between news and opinion.

Their bias is not an issue, as long as they are honest about it.

And they are now! They've got no choice.

Fox is not honest. They still use the "fair and balanced" bullshit. We all know they aren't fair and balanced. Nobody is.

You are right about that.

What I meant is that it's far more common for people to understand their bias now.

They've got an Obama watch! That tells all. If they had any credence at all, he would do a show.

Have you seen the Hillary Deathwatch on Politico?

Microsoft Shareholders Need Better Computers
Fools Opportunists & Xenophobes
Here's Nothing New
Corporate Nonstop Nonsense
Chincy Boardroom Schmucks
Need Buy & Consume
Pledge Begging Staff

I think I'd rather watch the Chickenjuggler network.
