Best news site for me is BBC News. I know, I know, I said BBC News 24 channel was boring, and I think it is. But their website is cool.
Some news sites look cluttered, others look sparse. BBC News is somewhere in the middle. Not too cluttered, all the information you need.

And god forbid CNN. "It's to liberal"  |
But I never complain that CNN is too Liberal. I think its a good balance. Democrats should have their own show, just as Republicans should have their own one.

The Daily Show.
Sure it picks on everyone, but I think it tends to irritate more Right wingers...

To me, FoxNews seems much more liberal than CNN sometimes. I don't have any specific examples, but I have seen headlines that appear to slant some of the Fox stories to the left.

Yes thats true. Anchors like Rebecca Gomez look like supermodels. 
Overall I would prefer Fox News because they have honest anchors and straight to the point achors like Bill O'Reilly, Greta VanSustren, and Sheppard Smith.
The only good anchor on CNN is Lou Dobbs because he cares for the middle class. The other anchors on CNN are either boring or have some pointless topics to talk about.

I like the anchors on CNN more, I think. There is a guy, has white hair, kind of youngish looking. He was recently on Oprah, don't recall his name. Very much like him.
The people on Fox seem to be... dunno. Not always just reporting the news, but also giving their views at the same time? There is a time for editorials, and there is a time for just straight news. CNN, for the most part, seems to have that concept down. That being said, I think I watch both equally, Though if forced to choose, I'd give CNN the edge. (The gorgeous women just don't do a thing for me,   )

I watch Fox more. I watch CNN but I really not into it much. I don't trust neither really. I seen how media spin things around. Especially when I was in Iraq... You don't know which news is telling truth.

True, my friend. I mean, our state broadcaster, the BBC, aren't totally impartial, even though they're meant to be.

I would say they were the most non-biast news station though. Not 100% because thats impossible.

Yeah, that's what I said. Not totally impartial. More impartial than others, but not 100% like they should be, being our state broadcaster.

That would be Anderson Cooper but he is actually 45-50 years old. He aint a young guy mind you.

Wow, wouldn't have guessed him that old. I knew he wasn't young, but, wow,
But yeah, he's always been around, and seems trustworthy, IMO.
