As Stephen T. Colbert has said many times:

The facts have a well-known liberal bias.

I prefer non-bias news like it is in the UK(most of the time), and cant stand right and left-wing news like in the US

@eirefrance except the concept of working together makes the concept of democracy broken. The idea is that voters choose which party they like better. It option A or Option B. If the only two parties work together then Option A = Option B. It breaks democracy, which is exactly what sissy handholding obama has done by giving the other side everything they wanted.

I guess this is why Americans listen to and care more about Sports news than Political news.

I agree that we need an independent party. Look at Palin here. The more we see Palin the more we think that Bush was the smartest in the RNC.

He needs to read sports reporting more. Facts and data often go by the wayside for some sports writer who has an axe to grind or needs to come up with a story that gets readers interested, even if it's not remotely true. And when all else fails, makeup a story and claim you have an anonymous source. Even if you do have a source, it doesn't need to be accurate in sports reporting. Shefter reporting the Vikings had a 'schism' over Favre was a great example of a BS story.

We can't operate that way. We're all Americans first. If we say fuck all Republicans, we're buying into their idea that the only true American is a red stater. This country needs people on both sides of the aisle to work together.

[eirefrance]

That would be "I know how to use proper grammer, smart-ass. Why are you soooo worried about what I am saying. You need to get a life." You're welcome.

[eirefrance]

I can't really argue with that.

The media has a retard bias. It is almost uniformly full of dumb crap spewed by idiots who think they know it all.

If you actually watched TYT enough you would see that Cenk fits this mold nicely.

Another proof of the Fox effect: Fair and balanced journalism when there is only one side to an argument

Well said. I always said democracy is a sham when you have a large population of corporate bred couch potato's. That sounds harsh but very true especially here in the states. Just look inside American shopping mall's for examples. Really Americans in most shopping mall's look like mindless drone's with clueless expressions on they're faces. You know who would agree with me on that fact? The late and great George Carlin.
