Can you recommend a relatively unbiased one?

Is it possible? Thanks.

Are there unbiased people?

My suggestion is that you settle in with a comfortable chair and a search engine. Read as much as you can manage on a topic without sacrificing your health or social life, including sites that are biased. The overt ones will teach you what the covertly biased ones are saying between the lines. You'll start to see points where there is some agreement between the sides and from there begin to get a sense of what's going on and learn how to extract some truth from all of the confusion. It's hard work, but it's worth it.

These days I always seem to wind up at wikipedia....

If it is coming from a human, no.

Your best bet is to get news from a number of reliable sources. Avoid most of the blogs, Faux News, Extremely Ignorant Broadcasting (EIB), and the other ones that blatantly lie, and put together the information from the others filtering out some of the sensationalistic information. A good knowledge of history and politics will also help you filter properly.

there is not any such factor as independent media coverage. fact is relative. There are 2 aspects to each tale.... a minimum of. or maybe then, you're nevertheless not getting the full tale. and tv "information media" is hardly ever seen information. Its in basic terms over-sensationalized incorrect information used to enhance viewer scores. Political pundits use theatrics and rhetoric to attempt and bypass off their critiques as information. turn off the television and examine your information. stay faraway from pundits and televised information. information articles are some thousands cases much less biased than television information.

Yes, there is such a thing. I personally believe that BBC can give you a un-biased News. I also think that www.WN.com can also. WN stands for World News. Don't rely on CNN, unless you'd want the USA's point of view. For a real median based News look to BBC news and World News.

No - all humans are biased. The best you can do is get opposing viewpoints and compare arguments. Some sources, however, do contain more 'facts' than others - but facts can be presented in more than one way most of the time.

If money exists there will never be a truly unbiased media source.

I think the BBC is much less biased than any of the US sources.

I found
http://www.honestreporting.com/

in all actuality however, it does not exist. the two prior websites mentioned, www.bccworld.com and www.WN.com, are not "biased" either. However, all three sites have chose to omit certain facts.
