Karen, O'Reilly is a "funny" mix of views of both right & left, Hannity & Combes one of each far left & far right, but these are comment shows, their hard "news" (of which you find little) seems to have around a 60% center/right to 40% center/left bias. Watch O'Reilly for 5 days & just 1/2 an hour of each show over the period of a month & get back to us, if you would please - you know, just a good solid sample.

What I hate about the media in this whole mess is their total lack of ability in finding out facts that aren't spoon fed to them by the political parties. With the exception of a rare non-partisan legal opinion, the TV shows are just interviews with the same pro-bush or pro-gore people. The newspapers are even worse, containing nothing but rehash of day-old news. One good example is the counting of dimpled ballots. Gore people say that dimpled ballots are counted in every state including texas ("That hypocrate Bush signed the law himself"). Bush people say no it isn't and Texas is much different because there are standards. Why don't the networks have reporters looking into this? I know that in California dimpled ballots are only counted if the ENTIRE ballot is voted the same way (dimples only). This actually makes sense. I really wonder what the laws are like in other states. -Brian
