3. None of the above.
Short bursts of truth don't do it for me (even though I love Keith).

The best news comes from Democracy Now. Period.

4. None... all including PBS demean and diminish DEM candidates at every
opportunity. A handful of exceptions: Countdown and ... uh... uh... well... Countdown

5. MSNBC has flushed its reputation down the toilet. Unfair, unbalanced.

8. PBS/The NewsHour. Whenever they have a discussion on the issues, they have
someone from each side of the debate to argue the points. They don't sensationalize the news or go for emotional responses. Frontline also has some of the best political documentaries I've seen anywhere. PBS also has Bill Moyers Journal.

10. CCTV-9
I find the Communist China TV to be fairly honest. I also like BBC in England.

12. Tweety on MSNBC is using all sorts of sport's analogies to bash Obama.
No criticism of the shitty commentators with their inept questions. :puke:

16. MSNBC sucks the least of the MSM cable news outlets.
I know, that's not saying much.
