I ask that sincerely. Newspapers, TV, radio et al. Does a list of some sort exist? I know that Mother Jones always publishes a list of major party donors and the corporations to which they're affiliated but beyond that, do we have a misperception that an unbiased media even exists? Where do you turn for objective reporting?

I'd say north of 75%. Way north.

Or it certainly seems that way.

than King Tut. That much is certain.

That chart was a real shocker.
