I think they do a damn good job of being as non biased as possible.... Certainly certain news presenters put their slant on everything they touch.

CANOE!!!!!!!!!

Half the people who post on off-topic threads (primarily the politically-oriented ones) offer opinions too often founded on ignorance, or an unwillingness to recognize there's always more than one way to view a topic. Please accept my apologies if my posts upset you, but then again, you can always ignore them or offer honest and well-founded rebuttals. As far as "liking" cars - I've worked in the automotive sector longer than you have drawn breath. My first autocross was run before you were in first grade. I subscribed to Auto-X magazine when I discovered the third issue and have kept every issue received or purchased for over 25 years. There's more info available, if you ask nicely. And for the record, was it not you who started this thread?

Sorry, I wasn't trying to get in a pissing match over age, you have me soundly beat there. I honestly thought you were in your early 20s. Maybe it was someone else. I didn't start this thread to have it become another one of these silly arguments that no one can win. I was just pointing out what seemed like a suspicious murder, but is only apparently a suicide. Ah well. Joey

Of course age could be the reason he totally missed my reference to 'Beyond Thunderdome'.

Your sarcasm is trumped by your inability to detect mine.

Some people have no taste. Tina has great legs, great talent, a sexy voice and great legs.

What's not to like:

Big pic for big talent!

Ditto that - and while I am on the subject - Limbaugh isn't either! Haha!

OK.. Give me a good nonbiased news source then.. So I can benchmark.

My favorite is the www.csmonitor.com

FWIW, the only non biased news source online Ive ever found is this one. Really anyone looking for a non party based information site should click that link

I won't accept this answer. Gotta be someone who does it best....

There aren't any anymore, if there ever were. That's why I don't take anybody seriously who says they hate Fox News or CNN - you need to watch a bit of everything and compare and contrast. Or just ignore it all equally, which is more and more tempting every day.
