The sources to watch out are those that claim to be unbiased. NPR, CNN, NYT and all the rest are deluding themselves and not to be trusted uncritically. At least FOX anchors and talk radio hosts know what they are.
So Fox gets a pass because they know they're biased, even though their tagline is "fair and balanced." Makes sense.
Let me ask you another question. If you're so up in arms about bias in the media, what do you personally do to minimize it? Or are you really only concerned about bias that doesn't pander to your view?
