Skip the apology John.....You made your point! Good one!

One wish huh? I'm not sure what it would be.

The press has bias. Period. I wouldn't argue that the majority of the "mainstream" press has a distinctly liberal bias, but that is a majority and certainly not all. The Press? The Times? Sure, very liberal. But all papers and news organizations have a bias to some degree and anyone with an IQ above 3 needs to take that into account, especially on controversial issues such as these. Reading and listening only to one source, or even two or threaa is no way to analyze the news on these subjects. As to this story, one of my local news channels, owned by the local conservative newspaper, did in fact report the gun side of the story.

I tell you what really gets to me..........People will not acknowledge that their favorite source is whatever it is. If I remark on a CNN story, it's simply a remark and I'm asking for other info. About then a Fox watcher will go on and on about CNN and that the only news fit to be heard comes from Fox. The converse is also true. If Doug reports something from Fox, someone will jump on him and Fox and extoll the virtues of their favorite. It's stupid. Both (and all) stories surrounding politics and controversial issues have a bias and it needs to be taken into account. Like you though, I wish the damn peole in charge would just say, "Yeah, we lean *****" and be done with it. Then they'd never get another interview from the ones who might oppose them, even in the slightest for fear of being labeled as a **** dupe.

When they approved Freedom of the Press, I think the old boys also felt that the responsibility for deciding truth still fell to the citizen. It still does.
