Great rorting job, almost mind numbing in its detailed outlining but really worth reading. The article shows with all the sources for news from the center, left and right the idea of the Fairness Doctrine being brought back is highly unlikely and uneeded. Good report.

This report pretty clearly shows that objectivity has been tossed on most of the Major news outlets with the exception of CNN. Which nearly replicates the "average" nationally. MSNBC and NBC have disgraced themselves. Sad to see a once great New Reporting operation evolve into what it is now. Their sad ratings reflect this loss as well. As the election is about over and we're electing the lesser of two evils, perhaps we can get on with things.
