Maybe THAT's why I never thought of Fox as uber-biased - I mainly encounter their product when I hear their radio news broadcasts on a local radio station, and those are usually just short bits about the news, no commentary or anything...
A couple weeks ago an Internet search too me to CNN's website home page. 100% of their links to OP-EDs were either anti-Romney or pro-Obama.
Check out the following interview from this morning with Mayor Giuliani, and make your own determination. In particular, listen to Soledad O'brien as they start to discuss Libya, and take a look at the other reporters chiming in.
They simply can't help themselves, as their left-wing ideology just bubbles over.
The mayor actually has to call her out on it.
Yes. The key word is "Op-Eds." Otherwise known as "some guy's opinion."

Damn, either this Cooper guy is really damn small, or Obama has some gigantic pockets.I would say somewhere between the first and second choice on the Poll. Anderson Cooper is in Obama's left front pocket, so there's no way in Hell CNN is anything other than somewhere Left of Center.
It'd be a combination of both. What do you think?Damn, either this Cooper guy is really damn small, or Obama has some gigantic pockets.
I think China might want it's pockets back.It'd be a combination of both. What do you think?
We'll throw Cooper in for good measure.I think China might want it's pockets back.
CNN has a pretty good mix of pundits. Their partisans are for the most part fairly reasonable (or at least good-natured and upfront about it), and their hosts do a good job of being balanced.
Sometimes, the result is that their coverage is very hokey and not very deep, though.
CNN is the only network I watch, because I can't stand MSNBC or FOXNews.
MSNBC type place where it is 24/7 opinion shows. Watch Fox most of the day, it is showing a fair assessment of what is going on
CNN does lean left. This close to an election is when you really notice it. I remember in 2008 about this time, I was deployed overseas and I had limited choices of news channels, and I watched a lot of CNN’s coverage of that election…and it was horrible. I was so frustrated from that I blocked CNN channels on my TV when I got home. However, I know CNN can be ok at times, but again, when it gets so close to a Presidential election their journalism standards seem to go out the window.
As far as Fox News Channel, as I often say, when they are reporting the news like they do most of the day, they are truly fair and balanced. Some people seem to confuse the opinion shows for the actual news reporting, and they think Fox is some sort of MSNBC type place where it is 24/7 opinion shows. Watch Fox most of the day, it is showing a fair assessment of what is going on. Now, if you are watching Hannity that is clearly a conservative leaning opinion type show, don’t judge the whole channel because of that. Hannity is the most right leaning there. As for the others: O’Reilly is an independent and it shows; The Five is a mixed bag; Greta Van Susteren is a moderate (I remember when she was on CNN). The only reason Fox is so incredibly successful, is because one, there apparently was a market for fair and balance reporting that wasn’t being filled. Two, those opinion shows weren’t being showed anywhere else.
I think CNN was far more liberal when Ted Turner owned and ran it...when he sold it, cnn went more to the middle and tried to maintain a professional air in reporting without the entertainment factor of Fox or MSNBC...that proved to be wrong and their ratings just died people want to be entertained, foxnews proves that...Soledad Obrien is a leftwinger no doubt, but she has never been as blatant as she has been lately...this may be by intent to jazz up the network and make it more entertaining.
So it seems to be the opinion of the "Independents", Conservatives and Libertarians that Soledad O'Brian is some radical leftist. Why does calling out rightie lies equate to being a leftie?
I think a lie is more accurately a statement which the person making it THINKS is untrue.A lie is a statement that is untrue.
Those who would say "lies" aren't lies must provide contradicting evidence.

People can believe false information is true, and thus make an incorrect/false statement without lying.
I don't watch TV. So...no.CNN "left wing biased" :lamo
Your kidding me right?
Has anyone watched CNN recently?
