he'd obviously say CNN was the most balanced, when in reality there's little difference between any of them. Either Cranky's really Michael Moore in disguise, or he's made sweet, sweet love to him on numerous occasions.



I figured MSNBC, ABC were center, CNN was very slightly to the right of center, and Fox was a hair shy of goosestepping levels of right-wing nuttiness? That's the impression I've gotten from watching all four. There isn't a left-wing equivalent to Fox at all - unless you want to call the major webloggers (not warbloggers) a real media source. Or Al-Jazeera to some extent - except Al-Jazeera clearly has some religious nuttiness in them which is antithetical to the left.

You know it was pretty cool the way the local station here did a piece on how Rummy, Wolfowitz, and Perle were planning this war five years ago using pieces from a think-tank they all used to work for as evidence.
