Lets see here

Let's see here, I'm really tired of not being able to watch a news channel without being bombarded with either liberal or conservative bias. It's very simple. I turn on the news to find out what is happening in this world. However, this is not possible nowadays because you either have to watch foxnews, which is clearly biased towards the right or cnn or msnbc which is biased toward the left. Now I don't want to deal with either of them to be honest with you. Msnbc is off my list completely because they don't report news, they report where Obama's footsteps have taken him today or where his dog went to the bathroom in the yard. That leaves CNN and FoxNews. Now I have watched plenty of both of these channels, and it's quite funny about how different they are. You can watch one station and then turn to the other and think you are in a different country. Fox news seems to focus on negative things or scaretactics, whereas CNN feels like telling the country everything is perfect, when in reality it is not. So there in lies another issue. Do I want to be uneccesarily alarmed? or uneccesarily optimistic? From what I have watched however, I believe that Fox actually reports more to what is considered reality than CNN. It isn't a big difference but it's noticable. And that is all. I'll see you next time, stock market.
