Has anyone ever thought that they are a little left leaning?

I wondered how long it would take for the koolaid drinkers on the left to bring up Fox News. They are so mad that an opinion that differs from theirs is allowed to get out, they foam at the mouth. So much for being tolerant.
Why does CNN lean left? Because the execs there could not run a business, small or large, with their socalist views so they either get into media and surround themselves with "enlightened" people like themselves or they get into American universities.

They should be fair and balanced like Fox, right? Isn't that their motto? Fox is as fair and balanced as Russia's latest election.
Bill G: I am tolerant of others ideas and opinions, but it is unfair to say that CNN is left-leaning as if it is a bad thing while simultaneously using the Fox News slogan without acknowledging that Fox News is not fair and balanced either. I'm pointing out hypocrisy and the best you can do is call me a kool-aid drinker.

It's impossible foor any type of media to be completely fair and unbiased. They are humans, with opinions. How manby people would watch CNN anyway if there were no straight forward opinions? People to disagree and agree with them? If it were to be like that, it would make for very dull news....

I'm a conservative, but I think they've done a decent job lately being more balanced. I mean, HELLO! Have you ever watched Glenn Beck or Lou Dobbs? Those guys aren't exactly libs! I give them credit for being more balanced than they were in the days when they were referred to as the Clinton News Network.

CNN is managed and staffed by left wing liberal loonies. What is tragic is that they think they are professionals doing a good job.

You are insane. It is only left compared to Fox. Just like Mussolini was left compared to Hitler.
Right wing zealots believe that any news source that doesn't slant things to the extreme right is verging on communist.
Why don't you give an example? Just one example of any time that they have reported news with a left wing slant. One.

Expected and hence why the Republicans didn't agree to the YouTube nonsense at first and unfortunately they rescind and subjected themselves and us to a deliberate sarcastic parody of Republican believe systems.
And if those type of stereotypical hand picked questions were geared to the negative aspects of Dems. during their debate, there would be screaming far and wide.

CNN is balanced. The fact that they report news that are not favorable for the GOP doesn't mean they're biased. Remember that this GOP administration has been very corrupt and secretive.

You mean like Fox News, talk about an oxymoron.
