[QUOTE="Janx, post: 5693155, member: 8835"] We may be slipping into the off-limit zone of politics. I will endeavor to keep my paws clean. I'd believe PBS is the most neutral. Their news show is the most bland and unhyped. Fox news has a record of being factually inaccurate, having the most citations for incorrect information on fact checking sites. They went to the Supreme Court to argue their right to do so. I just don't trust them because of that. I try to refrain from labeling any channel or person liberal or conservative. That's just another way of saying Republican or Democrat and digging at politics. In the land of Minnesota, we don't talk politics or religion. In the land of Texas, the first thing they ask is "What church do you go to?" That's bad manners in my culture. I suspect actual news-show crookedness is not as high as some people claim. Actual news is actual news most of the time. I would advise avoiding any show or article that involves people giving their opinion on a situation, and stick to ones where the journalist says "I have this here piece of video evidence that you can see the Senator is clearly wearing a Panda suit while trying to solicit drugs in the men's bathroom of the airport." The evidence will generally hold up to scrutiny, or there will be a new article about how the journalist was wrong/lying. This is actually where the Bullgrit mishap occurred. He missed some pages where the "I have this here evidence..." statements were made, and questioned the whole point of the article, that Amazon was running a crap-house. He made a booboo in reading, thus his reaction makes sense. What I despise, is people who read the whole article and challenge the very facts of the case on the basis that all news is lies and misinformation. That does society a diservice and only works to further the aims of those who would mislead us. [/QUOTE]
