    Fox News, at least they have speakers from both sides of the election.

    I like NPR, PBS and CNN. I almost busted a gut laughing when I read the answers from people saying Fox isn't biased. Are you kidding me? Fox is nothing but a mouthpiece for the republican party and the right wing of the party at that. The reason that Fox has to trot out that Fair and Balanced stuff all the time is because they are the least fair and balanced of all the news outlets. For crying out loud, listen to whatever makes you happy but at least be honest about it

    Major noncable networks on actual election and debate nights. I like Brian Williams. Used to like CBS when Rather was there. I flip around between CNN and MSNBC. I am a democrat and am not in denial about their left tilt. Oddly enough, I think the 2 most entertaining people on MSNBC are Buchannan and Scarborough-republicans. I like Harold Ford alot too. FOX News sucks.

    The least biased is Public Television. I really like watching the segment where David Brooks and Mark Shields analyze.

    I watch all news outlets. I know that Fox is hardcore conservative biased and that MSNBC is hardcore liberal. I find CNN and BBC to be the two best outlets to get pretty unbiased coverage. Oh, and real clear politics does a great job of posting both sides as well.

    Oh optimal easily. in spite of each thing the ridiculous coverage of Rudd's bypass to to a strip club (who extremely cares?) and his meant scientific venture (plenty for confidentiality), actual no longer some thing became produced from John Howard status around like a spare area on an same time as a woman indoors the team on the determining to purchase centre he became vacationing became knocked over. It became the ideal possibility for him to be seen as a annoying guy or woman yet no, he stood around looking like he had to be everywhere else till somebody led him away. He ought to no longer additionally difficulty to grant her a pat on the shoulder or ask her if she became ok. i'm no longer watching for him to administration first help, yet he would have a minimum of recognized in touch. he will kiss each infant under the image voltaic, yet help an injured woman?

    I've been watching CNN for coverage. They don't seem to be too biased to me but I don't watch it all day everyday so I don't really know. BBC is pretty good too. By the way, any one who says Fox News isn't biased needs to put the pipe down. They are the WORST out of them all!

    I only watch Fox News. It's the only one I trust to give me the whole picture instead of putting Obama on a pedestal. The other news outlets are so biased it makes me sick. If it weren't for the lefty MSM, more people would know the truth about Obama and he would be way behind in the polls. Given that, the fact that McCain is hanging in there on the polls is remarkable. A testament to the strength of character McCain has.

    Fox News. They are very fair and extremely balanced, so much so in fact, I have to push my mute button more than I care to whenever the in-the-tank, brain-what brain? liberals come on. But if I even THOUGHT about watching one of those other news outlets (can they really be called that? Isn't it more accurate to call them Obama fan club news outlets?) If I even thought about watching them, I'd have the mute button on the whole time and what would be the point of that?!

    Countdown on MSNBC Keith may sound biased but it rings a lot truer than Billo and FOX NOISE airbooster

    I watch it all and then do my own research and come to my own conclusion. I find that the person most unbiased and truthful in regards to political news is Lou Dobbs on CNN. He will bash or praise both candidates if warranted and usually offers some valuable insight in a non-partisan way.

    I still however, am smart enough to research what he says and come to my own conclusions.

    PBS or BBC for unbiased coverage. If I want to hear the latest republican spin I turn to FAUX news and when I'm in the mood for some choir preaching I turn to MSNBC.
