Gone is the unbiased media…
Have you compared headlines from CNN and FoxNews lately. The desparity is unreal, to say nothing of the spin. On Thursday, Sept. 11, 2008, CNN, also known as the Clinton News Network by my Republican friends, posted several headlines including three that spoke negatively about Sarah Palin, and one that stated Bill Clinton predicted a landslide victory for Obama over McCain. At the very same moment, FoxNews highlighed the US/China plans for North Korea, the evacuation of Texas residents, and how McCain and Obama put aside their differences during a forum event at Columbia University. Not that FoxNews was Pro-Republican at all, in fact, posted articles about Palin’s weaknesses and how Obama should focus on her inexperience and inability to lead, yada yada yada. But there was no spin, just facts, allowing us to make up our own minds about the election. Fair, unbiased, reasonable. CNN just goes on about how bad Republicans are and how great Democrates will be when they run the country. Completely biased, treating the readers as idiots. It’s no wonder CNN has been called out recently, much like the NY Times.
So, in fairness to all, and remaining unbiased, read what you want, but take everything with a grain of salt. Be the bigger person and don’t get all of your world news from one source.
