How are they biased, just going on what we see here?

Simple - you target your select group that you think will give you the proper results. This is even easier in America where most conservatives do not even answer polls like this unless asked via a random phone call.

Well, they ordered the report and released it to the press, that's fairly accurate and reliable for something so critical.

If you have been following the story, it was not voluntary about a year ago, where this news broke.

See my news transparency thread, BBC comes in 3rd for accountability and transparency, things like this report.

They are actually among what the normal world would consider the worst offenders. They have even amitted as much. Not sure where you went on that thread because I didn't read it, but they are definitely profit motivated for #1 (hype and oversensationalizing things is how they sell), and they are Politically motivated #2, and they are Religiously motivated #3. This is very very very far from tranparency - espeically with what they have tried to hide, and ruins their accontability as well.
I think the kitchen knife deal was about the clincher for me when they suggested banning all kitchen knifes because they could be used for violence in the street. A police officer had to clue them in that carrying a knife around that large was already illegal! :rotfl:But they still wanted them banned anyway!!!:rotfl:They have got to be the worst news organiation on the planet!
