Thing is, Old Dude, Bill Maher and John Stewart don't make any pretense of being journalists or even political commentators - even though they actually disseminate more real information and are far more "fair and balanced" than Limbaugh, etc., or anyone on Fox "News."
But you're right - we really don't have a news media on TV or radio any more, with the possible exception of NPR and PBS, which are themselves both now far too beholden to corporate sponsors for their existence.
