I haven't personally experienced a liberal or conservative bias in the msp, but that may be due to not watching broadcast news. I believe the whole "liberal bias" nonsense is merely a clever talking point that has stuck. What I find disgusting is the lack of investigative reporting that was once considered the public's watchdog. We can't trust our politicians to investigate themselves so we are left with nada.
I honestly believed that the Abramoff scandal would result in serious ethics reform. The joke is on me and the rest of the country with the piddling little gesture currently being negotiated.
Do I endorse throwing all the bums out in November? I will look at my representatives and senators voting records and decide if they deserve my vote. My first priority is finding a fiscally conservative candidate with the hope of correcting the mess this administration has created. I thought I could trust the Republican party in that regard, but obviously I was wrong.
