    Isn't one of GW Bush's cousins a news director at Fox?

    Anyway I agree that all news sources have some sort of bias, whether in how they report or in what they choose to report. That's why its important to check out multiple sources and cross check things.

    But think of all of the former Democratic operatives who work with various new organizations! More than I could possibly name, like Chris Matthews. And to think Carville and Begala are on CNN, but yet are assisting the Kerry campaign. No conflict of interest, right? Sure......:rolleyes:

    Wrong. In both instances it was evidence of institutional bias.

    Dude. Carville and Begala work for CNN as left wing commentators on a right versus left program called Crossfire. They sign off, "from the left..." Every time they're on, either Robert Novack or Pat Buchanan is there to say, "from the right." You guys have some arguments to make about media bias -- this is not one of them.
