I'm still waiting for someone to tell me CBS is right-wing.
Nah, none of the basic TV networks are right-wing.  Just the cable ones. Smiley

I first noticed during this election; that's the only one I remember watching the news.  How many f-ing times did you hear, "Kerry is the most liberal senator" and "Edwards is the 2nd most liberal senator" during the election (or Kerry stating the fact that Cheney's daughter was a lesbian)?  But how many times did you hear about Bush cutting the VA or lowering the standards for protecting the environment?
Seriously.  Think about it.

Since that's a massive distortion of what he did, I'd say it speaks well of them that they didn't talk about it.

That's not a 'massive distortion'.  It's fact.

If you don't agree with something, you're gonna think its biased.

Rob Corddry: How does one report the facts in an unbiased way when the facts themselves are biased?

Jon Stewart: I'm sorry, Rob, did you say the facts are biased?

Corddry: That's right Jon. From the names of our fallen soldiers to the gradual withdrawal of our allies to the growing insurgency, it's become all too clear that facts in Iraq have an anti-Bush agenda.
