I know it's probably impossible to find a truly unbiased news source, but I was wondering if any of you a2k-ers have any favorite news sources that you feel are the least biased, especially as it relates to World and U.S. affairs.
Thanks in advance.
The NY Times, though I know there are those who believe that paper is biased. Their international reporting, on the first pages of the main news section, is thorough.
The CBC or BBC are generally good as well.
Get most of my news from NPR... thems what'r on the far right think it's biased... but then, they would think I am as well...
But what better to do with 30 minutes there and 30 minutes back?
CNN online does the least editorializing of the major online news providers.
Fox News does a fair and balanced bit of news reporting. But, the left seems to think it is biased.
Also, BBC, CNN, and Boortz

If they do say so themselves, which they do, constantly.
Though to give credit where it's due, you did mention other sources of news. Cool!
I try to read the Boston Globe, NY Times, Denver Post and Dallas Morning News on most days.
If you take the same story from all 4 papers and highlight just the words that actually match up from all 4 papers you get the guts of the story without the "color commentary".
Try it for a few days. It's pretty enlightening.
