I understand the difference but some do not.

even the HLN has some opinion pieces now.

Because there's so much more out there than just news. If you want "just news" they have HLN.

You mean like Lou Dobbs, Glenn Beck, and Cafferty's bit on the Situation Room? They ALL have those. MSNBC has Tucker Scarborough, and Matthews. Fox has Gibson, Cavuto, Hume, Hannity & Colmes, and O'Reilly, and the Beltway Boys on the Weekend. There's a possibility I've missed a few.
These are common shows to have on news networks, since some people aren't able to think for themselves, and need to be spoon fed their opinion with their daily news (this happens on both sides). With the influx of "opini-news", it's harder and harder to get an unbiased opinion anymore.
If your looking for a quick, unbiased report, turn to the internet. With the exception of blogs, most of it is (mostly) unbiased.
I will point out that, factually, Fox News Channel does have more opinion & commentary shows than MSNBC, which in turn has more opinion & commentary shows than CNN.

Lou Dobbs is CNN's equivalent to Bill O'Reilly. (Well, almost. O'Reilly is really, really bad.) But they both suck big time and are blowhards. Dobbs gives a bad name to those of us who legitimately oppose our borders being so damned porous. But illegal immigration *is* a serious problem, whether or not zealots are against it or for it. (One that I'm pretty sure we don't agree on, but that happens.) frenzy: I adore Jack Cafferty! And you're quite right, he has definitely been silenced for the most part :( I used to love watching him in the mornings when he was actually allowed to speak. Now all they let him do is read viewers' emails for a few minutes in the evening. Pathetic. That's too bad; he was the best thing that ever happened to CNN....

Because all news networks have opinion shows now. Fox news is just a loud speaker for the white house.

Fox News "unfair and unbalanced." The official media of the Republican Party.

The same reason that all newspapers and magazines run "opinion" pages, to let people have their say and express themselves. Which news channels do not have opinion segments?

They can't fill 24 hours a day with just news and commercials.

No, you got it wrong. CNN stands for Communist News Network. Founded by the uber leftest Ted Turner who used to be married to Hanoi Jane
