If it is from any perspective, it is bias. That is putting it how you see it. That may not be how everyone else sees it. That is why you need to see the news as it is, and make up your own mind. Ben Franklin basically said in a quote about everyone needing to have a news paper (i can't remember exactly, so I will put it in my words/no irony there), that 2 of the most important things are knowing what is going on as far as news, and you need to keep you morals in mind. I usually treat the news as being basically the truth, but not the whole truth, or wholly truthful. I think presenting things from a Christian perspective puts an extreme slant on things (as history shows) and should not be a trusted source. I am going to stop rambling now, as I am so tired that my vision is blurring.

Yes. And I find it quite refreshing as opposed to the national news media. (excluding FOX news) At least FOX just tells it like it is without all the bias of the other networks.

Yes. But dont be naive thinking there are news sources that are completely objective and non-biased. All of them believe it is their job not only to report the news, but interpret it, and offer their opinion on it. Peoples biad determines HOW they interpret it, the language they use, and what assumptions they make in reporting it.

Well sure it does, like CBS, ABC, NBC give the news from a liberal bias. Fox News is more conservative perspective etc.

The way the 700 club exploits people is flat-out shameful.

Yes. It's a Christian view of things, even in the way they view Islam. It's totally biased and agenda-driven.

No, in fact they show things you will never see on the regular news and it makes the regular news look biased.

Yes, but at least they're honest about it... unlike certain other "fair and balanced" news sources.
