Why can I not find non-baised media?

I mean, I am a liberal and pretty damn far left at that but when I want news I don't want to hear what you think I want to hear I want to hear what really is fucking going on! I am so pissed at our media lately. Nothing you hear or see on the news is absolute. Why? I mean I was listening to fresh air yesterday, one of my favorite shows on NPR. She had Bill O'Reily on after having Al Franken on a couple weeks before. They had him there to promote his new book but she came right out with both guns blasting quoting Al Franken and other liberals who have said stuff about him. Now, I know Al Frankin is a comedian and O’Reily is a journalist and she holds O’Reily more accountable for what he says. I know O’Reily contradicts himself a lot and does not always put forth facts like he says he does. BUT you brought him on to talk about his book. She only asks about a few parts of the book through the interview and with those it was almost like she was trying to discredit him.

Now He did come on as he is always with a little attitude and talked down to her a bit but she should expect that. Not everyone has a peachy persona. I respect Bill a tiny bit more than I did before because he handled himself well until the very end where he stopped the interview. I thought that was immature. I would have respected him a lot more if he would have finished and then talked about it later on his show or something (which he did anyway).

I like fresh air and I like the host. I just think she screwed up this interview. If she would have first promoted his book, discussed it in a non biased manner, then later let the guns blaze I think it would have went a lot better. She had valid points she was pointing out and really was proving him wrong she just did it at the wrong time without being fair to her guest.

I just want some good news that is fair and balanced (lol) for real! I want some non-biased media that just wants to report the truth and nothing but the truth. Does this exist?
