ABC and NBC I would put as fairly down the middle, but they tend to by like USA today. If you're hearing about it there, good chance you've heard about it before.

out of all of what's available, I recommend npr. Sure, they don't have the made up stories people seem to crave, but if you're looking for news, you aren't looking for that anyway.

The game of "Self-fulfilling Prophecy" is very big among conservatives and they are masters at it: create a criticism of something while simultaneously creating the circumstances that fulfill the claims. The "left-leaning media" claim was used to justify changing FCC rules to allow for the creation of pure propaganda outlets. The same strategy is used to undermine government agencies like the EPA.

Some folks who lean right here might think that I am criticizing the right. Actually, I am just observing. If there is any criticism, it is of the left, who have not always been successful in spotting the game and calling it out effectively.
