Personally I'd prefer if reporters here followed the same European outline of newspapers according to the point of view it is reported from.

Eg. Communist paper, Unionist paper, Republican paper, Democrat paper, etc.

It'd resolve all the "fair and balanced reporting" bs that we have to put up with when we can figure out the agenda of a reporter or news agency within a series of articles quite easily.

And I'd also like to see more transparency within the news organizations themselves and have a requirement for basis of "fact reporting" as opposed to this "celebrity reportiong" that I'm so tired of. I'm finding too many "fair and balanced reporting" articles being passed off as news when they are in fact opinionated articles with no real meat to the story.

I also want to hear more positive stories on the news. All the "doom and gloom" is both dangerous by crying wolf too many times, and desensitizing the public from real dangers that exist and atrocities that are occurring.

Thos are my 2 cents.
