Poll question: which network news has the least RW propaganda ?
Peter Jennings performance disappointed me greatly in the NH debate. We thought ABC was the least "whorish" I already hate Tom Brokaw. Is CBS/Rather any better?

1. None of the above
You have to go to the Daily Show.

BTW, tonights guest is Howard Dean.

Tommorrow is Richard Perle! That should be funny.

2. I voted 'CBS ' --
-- but it's only by a nose. They're helped a bit by sometimes good analysis on 60 Minutes.

ABC is the most RW. Ted Koppel's performance at the Durham debate was terrible. Peter Jennings thinks he's 007. Brit Hume used to be with ABC. Very conservative outfit.

9. Did you know
that ABC is the BBC News' American affiliate. Well they they share resources I believe and we get ABC news shown on the BBC's British news channel every night for 1/2 an hour.

4. Tom Brokaw

I read some stuff in Greg Palast's book "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy". Tom was quoted something like 'Sometimes, you just don't know whether you can ask certain questions'. The gist I got is that he has to watch his step or he'll be fired.

I'm betting that some of these guys are still trying to "sneak" real journalism into their propoganda.

8. I agree! Jim Lehrer's News Hour is the only thing worth watching IMO

5. They all are whores.
ABC has Stossel, CBS censored the MoveOn.org ad, and NBC is owned by GE so they all suck.

6. Other
NewsWorld International.

Very fair and balanced.

Jsut don't let Al Gore (supposedly the soon-to-be owner) go with his idea of turning it into a hard-news version of E! That would be a tragedy. Leave it as it is.
