Political Bias/Slant of Newscasters and Reporters

I’m not that familiar with the news shows and their various slants, but it is something I’ve been curious about for a while, so I thought I would lay it out before the Collective. :wink: I tried to do a survey of this on my own, but I was a bit dismayed at the huge menu of different news/discussion/round table shows that are all over the cable news channels these days. I had a couple of them that I enjoyed watching several years ago (when we had a dish instead of cable), but I’m not going to say which ones, because I’d rather not hear “Well, if you enjoy so-and-so you’ll really like this-other-person.” This is not a plea for advice, it’s a poll of media bias.

With that being said- let me lay down a few ground rules to assist with clarity:

  1. Please tell the name of the program if it’s different from the persons name.

  2. Please tell the name of the network that they are affiliated with.

  3. Please don’t just say “conservative”, etc. please try to give an example or two of how the newsperson has demonstrated such.
    Thanks in advance!
