I've heard lots of anchors say negative things about Clinton. I guess they were all right-wingers. Damn biased media.4everacatfan wrote:This is JMO the best way to find out what is truly the news is to stagger your veiwng.

All of the networks and cable news channels have a bias to them. To hear any of the "big anchors" say they are just reporting the news I want to scream "liar liar pants on FIRE![]()
"
Even the newest Anchor to be Katie Couric slants to the left (I vaguely remeber her attacking George Bush Sr. on the Today show when he was the president.

You are right I was not trying to say they just slant to the left that was just an example. During the Clinton administration I think the conservative slant on talk radio and news shows hit an all time low with their reporting. Example turning on the ABC news which is not a conservative news broadcast and hearing Peter Jennings saying "Oral Sex" on the news was for me a low point in television news broadcasting.Bay Area Cat wrote:I've heard lots of anchors say negative things about Clinton.

The fact that so many news outlets report news currently that doesn't reflect positively on Bush is because a lot of negative news has resulted from Bush's decisions ... very similar to the negative news that arose but Bill's decisions.
