There is a wide world of media sources out there John, as you know. If your students only picked from media sources that agreed with whatever their own beliefs were on any given subject, and not from a wide variety of other sources, I really do believe you would be less than amused.

I sometimes hear BBC on the radio. I usually do check into BBC on internet. They are from a socialist country, and do reflect that in most of the articles.

We watch International News on cable...it seems to have a wide view of info from around the world, and a decided slant isn't easily detected. You might also try Strait Times from Singapore, and the Times from India...Heck, you might even want to check into newsmax....they pull from the right more than you'd like...but on the other hand, I know you would find some info of interest. If nothing else, you could throw darts at whatever you found that you didn't agree with.

As for Fox vs CNN as mentioned in the article you posted...at least Fox mentions the bias if it is intended. CNN does not as a rule do that. In fact, I can't ever remember them EVER doing that.
