i'm still not sure about that one. i think it does matter what their leanings are because somewhere in the last decade (or so) they have forgotten that they aren't supposed to show bias.
i've actually seen an improvement recently among most of them, but in the buildup before the war the geniouses at Fox were... well we know where they stand, Peter Jennings couldn't even say Bush, US, or American without sneering and the others each have taken pot shots. for individuals, such as most cellarites, it is no big deal because they are smart enough to listen to the story being read from a teleprompter and form their own opinions. unfortunately there are many who get their view of the world from the talking heads and don't realize that they may not be getting the whole story. sometimes what isn't reported or even a few words left out of a story are more important that what iis said.
that is why i've decided to only get my news from the water cooler, blog sites, and most importantly the cellar. if it wasn't true - it wouldn't be posted, right? right? RIGHT???
