Barack Obama

Damn near every media outlet has it's own political bias, not just Fox news. Even good ol' PBS and BBC...

The Obama machine and the Bush machine have taken all that stuff into consideration, believe me, and it's all accounted for. In a country that is supposed to be based on the Freedom of the American voter, nowhere in the world has the Art of Manipulating the Consumer flourished more than right here, and if Massachusetts votes with it's ass instead of it's head tonight, not only will Teddy be spinning in his grave, so will Washington, Jefferson, and every freethinking American who loves or tolerates the sexual liberties the Republicans and Conservatives want to destroy.

Bias toward the public good sounds good to me. That what a Democracy is supposed to be about, the public good.
Not the rich, or the conservatives, or the liberals, or the ultra religious, or the atheists, just whats good for the country and the people living in it.

A democracy is about the whims and wants at a particularly given point of a society and is never usually long-lived. A republic is about justice and law previously agreed upon for the benefit of the society, both present and future. But I digress...

All these media outlets have some sort of political bias whether or not you would like to acknowledge it or not. Just because it is subtle and not blatantly obvious does not mean that it is not present. And most don't care about the "public good" or any such thing. Long gone are the days of objective reporting.
