Well, the Clinton News Network strikes again. Forget the obvious plants and BS double edged questions. The real problem with these debates is the lack of quality questions. Why does the left wing media think we are all so stupid? This entire process is just gross, there is zero honest discussion, sheilded canidates and the truth is no where in the picture. I am so disgusted with this ridiculous shame and it is &^%$ing insulting and outrageous.I have come to believe that when your personal ideology supersedes the truth, you are totally devoid of credibilty. Heres a simple thought. Cut feds programs, cut taxes, kill terrorist, secure with deadly force the border, marriage between man/woman, drill for oil, build refineries, and then go huntin. [:@]
I'm a news finatic and have to say I can't tell for sure if CNN is left or right.
That being said FOX is definately right wing. Is this OK in your mind?

Fox shows are mostly editorial/opinion in nature. When it comes to reporting the news, they are pretty even-handed. The problems arise when news networks dress up an op/ed show as news. The line is getting harder to find.
Forget cable news, it's all a joke. I can find stories directly from AP several days before they appear on TV. The networks can't offer the range of coverage that the Internet does through the countless sources now online. Yahoo! News is pretty good, and globalsecurity.org is great for finding war coverage. A lot of European newspapers also publish English translations online, which offers a glimpse in the way other cultures view the worldy goings-on.

You haven't watched CNN that much then.
CNN is definitively left wing for 22 hours a day. They have tried to make themselves a bit more "fair and balanced" by hiring Glenn Beck.

100% agree with this. The only news I watch is local news to see what is happening in my area and I still check news sources to get the full story after seeing it there anyway. I haven't watched cable news or "national" news shows for years. ALL of them have a slant, left or right. At least with news articles you can read enough of them on the same issue as to balance the left and right leanings and, as Aught Six states above, the European news sources give a really different viewpoint.

CNN is the most sensational of the liberal TV "news" outlets. They coined a new term; Koran abuse, when they accused a military guard at GitMo of wiping his butt with pages of a Koran.If the guy really did it he deserves a Distinguished Service Medal.
I have to agree that 1.) all cable news leaves something to be desired, and 2.) Fox News is not as slanted as CNN.
I hear people saying all the time that Fox News Channel is slanted towards the right. I don't see that. Obviously, their primetime shows are slanted (I suppose Hannity & Colmes is supposed to be balanced, but Colmes is such a moron that he makes the left look like idiots), and their morning show is junk, but if you watch the straight news during the day, it's pretty fair. One thing I like about Fox News is they tell the entire story without trying to paint either side in a positive picture.
CNN is just as obviously biased to the left during primetime, but I don't see the same fair reporting during the day on CNN. A prime example is the war. There have been some pretty good signals coming out of Iraq recently. I never see that reported on CNN; only the bad. On Fox, I see both the good and the bad reported. I'm smart enough to make up my own mind (usually), and I appreciate news networks that will allow me to do that.
