My news is better than your news, etc

I'm surprised to see Time so low on the list. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

My only problem with FoxNews is that it is owned by a foreigner. This is potentially very dangerous.

The should clamp down on this loophole in our Media Security before we deal with Illegal Aliens.

One should not read too much into that analysis and listing of papers. The outcome of such projects is predetermined by the criterions of those who conduct it. The only way to reduce the danger of getting fooled and misled by narrow perspectives is to increase the diversity of the sources you read, and try to cover the specrtum from one side to the other. that'S why I skim at least the front pages of over one dozen papers from Germany, Britain and the US, and if a story interests me I add even more specific and international sources from France (not many in English they have), Russia, Israel etc.

Try to read both what you like and what you don't like in opinion on an issue. Don'T stay with only that that you would like to hear - you become a narrow-minded idiot by that only.

Kidding of course, my friend. But you are right. I find 'Google News' to be amazingly helpful for this. Underneath a headline you find links to the same story as covered by dozens if not hundreds of other news outlets from all around the world. It's fun to hear the CCP organ Xinhua's take on Paris Hilton, among other things

Fox news is intent of spreading a certain agenda and slants every story it can the same way. Lou Dobbs Tonight might be particularly partisan but at least it isnt presented as legit news coverage. Fox just says what it says like its the god's truth... once its gone through the Rupert Murdoch filtering process of course.

I agree, but I'm surprised to see NPR listed as high as it is. I listen to it regularly, just for a laugh. They are so one-sided it drives me crazy that it's completely funded with tax money.

Because Rubert Murdoch is a puppet of the Australian government to destabilize America in order for us to take your place as the so called leader of the free world.
