Who told you there were unbiased publications? Have there ever been any? So, what's the problem with considering well written articles from both side of the spectrum and deciding for yourself, or are you one of those that needs to have his ideas pre-shaped for easy consumption?

Having trouble with reading comprehension today? Read post number 19. Go ahead, it should be easy enough to understand that even you will be able to get it.

My reading comprehension is fine. Care to explain your comment in #16, since it indicates you didn't grasp to concept of reading both the liberal and conservative points of view . . . you do know that the examples represent opposite points of view, right?

You need to quit before you get further behind. You are not understanding the written word today. Post #16 does NOT indicate that I did not understand what you were saying.

I know perfectly well what you're saying, read the spin from both sides and decide on which one you like. Bullshlt! I want objective news reporting so I can make up my own mind.

I'll give you an example of objective news reporting. How about direct, word for word quotes and leave the comments for the editorial pages? Then we both can decide and take from it what we wish.

Now, go do some studying and learn about reading comprehension.

I love it when we argue about arguing. That's a wonderfully entertaining spectacle.

My argument is more argumentative than your argument!
