I thought the news was suppose to give both point of view. Now I notice each station has agenda.

That has always been the problem here I'm afraid. US networks (regular, cable or otherwise), concentrate on domestic issues, essentially because the general public (apparently not including you), really don't care about anything happening outside this country.

It is a shame because so many people here have no clue whatsoever about international affairs (it's something like 7 out of 10 Americans don't even know where Iraq is, yet complain about the place everyday!).

Maybe the networks want to educate the public, but the public won't listen, and so we will hear more about some horse stuck in a bog in Missouri than we will about the Darfur Crisis, or the fact that President Putin would be quite happy to re-start the Cold War again.

For the foreseeable future, World News is dead in this country.....

this is an election season. Any information is powerful information. different than once you degrade the 2d in line for the Democratic nomination... thrilling math. the story had no chew. yet it replaced into extorted. Hillary Clinton has Darth Vader for a marketing campaign supervisor. Patty Solis-Doyle. Then the darkish stress employs over 4 hundred typhoon squaddies. something destructive assume Hillary '08 is at the back of it. Even her own hits. She is in thick with Rupert Murdoch (Google murdoch-clinton). this is all deliberate political technique. Welcome to the international of politics. What pin? Who cares? He reported too lots and replaced into caught off shelter by ability of a brownie reporter. it somewhat is the element. He did no longer cope with the warmth. (around table ABCNews This Weekend w/ George Stephanopoulos) Hillary '08 gets extra empathy as she is perceived attacked. Oh Scarlet!! 13 yrs of stress.... blabla hahaha right here and there. in effortless terms a music and dance. thank you.

American TV doesnt show world news, never has. It only show's theyre world.

When I lived in the U.S. I had to call home to find out what was going on.

Probably the BBC is best because it is a public company.

CBC is pretty good and it also is a public company.

Global TV is a corporate company and has a good international segment as part of its daily news.

When I was a kid, I listened to international news on short wave radio. Today I use the internet to read newspapers from other countries. US TV news sucks.

American news shows what it wants us to believe. It's sad but true. Good thing there are places on the internet to find the truth.
