Mojo, I'll try this one more time, even though you don't seem to be reading what I actually write.
I state, flat-out, that
this is my perspective. But your 'retorts' state a problem with my posts because they "are full or personal perspective."
You are missing the point entirely.
I am asking for YOUR perspective, perhaps as a contrast to mine. At no point am I implying that my perspective is correct or widely accepted. I don't state that Fox is a problem and I don't state that Franken is a problem. But if we don't describe our perspective, then why do we have a forum?
Again, I feel what you have had to say thus far only serves to exemplify my point. But not really, because I was only referring to NEWS-HOSTS, and the way in which they report the news.
I was not speaking about 'liberals or 'conservatives' in any sort of a broader sense.
You bring up newspapers, but I thought I addressed that in the op. I am aware of the bias there; it is my perception that more 'everyday-people' tend to get their news from television nowadays, as opposed to print media, which is why I posed the question regarding televised news and used the examples I did.
