While we try to say in this day and age is it not there it just really is all over the place. I do not mind any media coverage at all but I can not get over how many people are still being idiots when it comes to reporting the news.

There is no way that we can overcome media bias completely I don't think, but we can make sure that we take in our news from many different sources. That's the best way to ensure a balance.

Well the recent election was a perfect example of this and the worst was that it was endorsed by the candidates. No actual proof, just slander almost-so if the soon to be leader of our country (as either were at the time) can do it, what is stopping a news network?

I think people should learn to think for themselves, and sometimes we are too lazy to analyze situations for ourselves in order to make proper choices.

It is extremely difficult to talk about anything without a certain amount of personal bias entering into it. We are always influenced by our own beliefs and our own experiences, even news reporters. Some I think take it too far, of course, but overall I think most try to keep their personal bias out of it.

Sometimes I listen to how some radio stations and talk shows seem to always be attacking and blowing some thing out of proportion in some cases and basically ignoring the faults of those who they favor, it shouldn't be like that.
