Brit Hume of FOX News is one of the best and most unbiased in the news business today, IMO. If you bother to watch him, you would know that was true.

I do watch several channels for news, and there are NONE that consistently have both sides of an issue presented like FOX does. CNN certainly does not. ABC, NBC, CBS...all ditto that.

Plus listen to the actual words the Anchors of whatever broadcasting program you listen to ....ACTUAL words, and how they say them. Take out the adjectives and adverbs...write them down as they say them. See at the end of the program which way they are leaning...

Easy enough to do. Most won't do it ....they might be afraid their own opinions need to be readjusted.....

"Media to me is newspapers and television news. Both of which may have their biases..

You mean the liberally biased formerly mainstream media of the PRess Corpse? They have earned so many dispariaging nickname one hardly know which to use. One commentator calls them the Drive By Media.

Then you have pseudo media like "commentators" and "FOX news" and "blogs" which approach every story with a particular point of view.

ROTFL - Fox is the closest to the center of any of the TV media I have seen. The big five are so far left it makes the 75% of the population to the right of the most centrist one crazy. Every story is designed to convey the biases of the editorial staff. At least Fox tries to round up liberals to present the Democrat spin. Occasionally the FMSM will grant some air time to a moderate and call them conservative, but not until they understand just how hamstrung they are.
