They must be or advertisers wouldn't be buying time on them. My cable 
company has the MSNBC, CNN and FOXNews right next to each on the dial so 
it's easy to flip between them. I find it interesting how each one spins 
the news to fit their particular agenda. The MSM in the USA is heavily 
biased towards the left. The right wingers do control AM talk radio 
pretty much though with Limbaugh, Hannity and so forth. 
Personally, I'm sick of it all. 
Sunday's debate is going to be one hell of a pissing contest though.

I think I've become cynical in my old age because I don't believe 
anything I see on TV or read on the Internet. Everything is spun in some 
direction or another.
