We all know that there is no completely unbiased news station, but I'm just wondering which stations do you consider to be the most reliable or unbiased?

If I missed any of the major ones, let me know. I'm not a big news person. If Other, please specify.

I usually stick with CNN or BBC. CNN's on the liberal side, but not as much as some others. BBC seems to stay fairly neutral.

MSNBC = strong liberal tilt.
FOX = strong conservative tilt.
CBS = never watch it, so don't know!

BBC's the only one I remotely trust, but truthfully I think televised news in general is fairly lousy. I just read Reuters to get the main stuff and not have to deal with all the bullshit and filler the channels put in.

BBC here; I only use Conservative FOX only for sports and non-actual-news stuff.

CNN. And even then I'm wary. I don't really trust BBC either. I've seen some of their stories being rather... sensational. At least in terms of when they comment on American news.

Don't have television. Just 'net. I would say that I am like a monk on a mountain, except that this particular monk abstains from wine to snort crack.

CNN and BBC for me.

Fox is good if I want a laugh or rage.

If I'm interested in a news story I read it from as many possible angles as I can find.

But don't get me started on news and whats wrong with how the masses receive it, I probably won't shut up.

I read, watch, and listen to ABC. All news, no agenda.
