"Have u watched Crossfire on CNN "

Yes, but that is about 2% of their programming. And yes, I
like O'reily's show too. Brit Hume is one of their top
anchors IMO. Most of the rest of CNN's 'news' is as I've
already described. Unapologetic liberal slant.

FWIW, I remember the day Baghdad fell. I had CNN on that
morning. From what they were reporting, it seemed things
were going badly in Iraq. They were harping once again
that it was all but certain our troops would take
thousands of casualties in street to street fighting over
the next few months. I switched to MSNBC & it got worse.
They made it seem we were actually losing the war & it was
sure to get worse as we approached Baghdad.

Next, I turned on FOX. Not only did the reporting change
dramatically, they were showing troops in downtown Baghdad
moving cautiously but unopposed. They were reporting that
it looked like the city would be taken with little further
resistance. Later that morning, they toppled the statue of
Saddam to the delight of Iraqi citizens.

I guess that was FOX distorting while CNN & MSNBC were
fair & balanced. NOT!

CNN & NSNBC didn't admit that what they had been reporting
all day was completely wrong. And they didn't change the
slant & distorted reporting going forward. FOX got it
right & consistently kept getting it right.

That's why I still watch them all. I know FOX has a
conservative bias. I know first hand the one's I listed
previously are all still quite liberally biased.
