I still watch BBC America, even though it's plainly liberal.....but like Duke said, I don't watch much, as I find them all too be much the same these days, especially here.

I don't watch any news programmes anymore as they don't want to just report the news.
It's the word "Programmes" that sends truth out the window, a news report is just that - the news is or should be front and centre, a programme is made with entertainment (as opposed to information) as it's raison d'être, so it's no surprise they try and shock or exaggerate. It's rule #1 in the journalists handbook, never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
It used to make me laugh/get angry when they spoke to every **** within a mile of something happening so they could get an angle on a story.
The world doesn't need 24 news reporting. It just plays into the hands of anyone wanting to have a grievance with the world and make their point.
And the world has also always had terrorists and always will have terrorists as there will inevitably be someone somewhere who wants to rail against the system and have more power to themselves.
