What's this?

A lot of truth to that, but there also has to be a bias free alternative

for the public to turn to. We used to have much closer to that available thanks to journalistic integrity, but as that guy points out, "that's adorable". Journalistic integrity, like ethics, can only be sacrificed by the deliverer. But yes, sadly we the viewers not giving ratings to those that tried have had a large part in this happening.

I just think it's laughable that anyone pretends this only happens at WMAL, Fox or on the right. No one argues they don't push their bias and show no remorse, only that CNN, etc. are no different. Only the left seems to pretend this is a one sided phenomenon. Or thinks they can convince people that it is.
