I tend to go with BBC news. They are guilty of their share of spin, but it's less intrusive because their articles and anouncements are are far more concise than our media. They also seem to do better with keeping up with science, and I love their one minute world news.

That's one reason I stopped watching TV, and keep myself informed with googlenews. It give my a sample of every political inclinations (left, right or neutral) for any specific subject.
But I hate Faux News espescially, since Murdoch took control of it. They aren't just interpreting facts in their favor, they have been caught several times creating facts out of thin air. And their anti-Obama propaganda often reach /facepalm levels. |

You might also be interested in http://www.politifact.com/, which checks the accuracy of various political claims. The history behind the politifact "owners" is interesting: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/blog/2011/oct/06/who-pays-for-politifact/

Mainly radio for me now. BBC world service at night makes the shifts so much more bareable. |

It's actually a pretty good source for news, if a bit indirect. All you have to do is just watch FOX, and then assume that the exact opposite is true. |

They go too soft on everyone, except Bill Clinton, come on the dude is a guy, so what he received a blow job from some ugly fat hog that probably begged for the day to come when someone, anyone, would give her some attention. That guy did her a favor and most likely made her day with some protein, also he put US in a surplus of 1 trillion USD and US best living standards in history etc. But nooo he lied about getting a fracking blowjob |

I remember a particular Fox News documentary that left me litteraly speechless. The commentator took a few theme words from obama's speechs, like for example Security, and with only the first letter of each word, then formed the word SOCIALIST, and started to depict that as Obama's hidden agenda.
I was stunned by the implicit insult toward the average US resident this little word manipulation represented. Just what kind of fool would believe this crap? |

Quote:Attempts have been made to identify particular Popes (rather than the Pope in general) with the Beast. Michael Stifel (1487-1567, better known for introducing modern symbols for addition, subtraction, and square root) proved that Pope Leo X (lived 1475-1521, Pope 1513-1521) was the Beast by means of the following calculation, as described by Howard Eves, An Introduction to the History of Mathematics (NY: Rinehart, 1953), p. 217:
From LEO DECIMVS he retained the letters LDCIMV. He then added X, for Leo X, and omitted the M, because it stood for mystery. A rearrangement of the letters gave DCLXVI, 666, or the "number of the beast".

They should have spelled out MARXIST, but Obama probably didn't say anything that started with X. |

I noticed a funny thing recently. Discussing news sources in a media class. Many uber liberal types now like to say they watch/read al jezeera. Because it's so progressive and worldly. However every single person from the middle east in every class I've had that brings this issue up loathes that station because often times it's censored or partially run by the government.
I suppose the grass is always greener. Really people need to diversify their news sources. It's not the job of the news to agree with you or give you an opinion. Should just state the facts, and you have to use your own brain to interpret it.
