I don't believe something as trivial as the truth will get in the way of a juicy story for Fox News.

That said, I don't have that much confidence in MSNBC or ABC either.

Certain MSNBC shows, yes. I personally am a fan of Maddow and Olbermann, they do their best to fact check and are happy to correct themselves when they are wrong. Yes, they may be liberally biased, but they do have journalistic integrity. Even Olbermann will admit when he's hyperbolic, usually in his Worst Person's segment.

I also like Anderson Cooper 360. Those are my sources of televised news. Watch all 3 every morning via podcast at work.
