And yes, i do think it is important to use our intelligence and discretion to read, analyze, discuss and understand what is most likely true and what is abjectly false. It is not my agreement that makes it true, but if it is true then i am not likely to disagree with it even if it doesnt align with my political beliefs.
So in short it's not "Media Bias" but your own "personal bias" .

That is so mind numbingly wrong that it is on par with your calling yourself a republican.

Yes i have a personal bias, as everyone on this site does. We are expected to have one as we are rational intelligent humans. The media/news is supposed to try not let personal bias inject itself in reporting facts. The point of this thread, and my point in talking about media bias in general, is that all the major news outlets have gone greatly astray from that ideal, to the point that none of them can, on face value, be taken as consistent deliverers of non biased news stories.
