I think most people would admit that Fox News has become more of a cartoon show than a news outlet. It is so obviously one-sided that it's hard to take seriously or to watch it without laughing. On the other hand, what the liberal news outlets are doing is much more devious. First, they are a business, they will do what it takes to get viewers and readers, and they know what we want is sensationalism. They also know much of America has been dumbed down or pussified, and they cater to that reality. Factor in a heavy dose of bias and ideology, and you get what we have today. They very selectively headline some stories while omitting others, flavored with a heavy touch of bias, and bingo: Journalism that is not only unwatchable, but that has cast doubt on the very concepts of truth, honesty and information. Can you cite examples of Fox being cartoonish? I have trouble seeing it.

Prior to seeing this tweet, I've noticed signs of a shift back towards objectivity from CBS.

Great points by Lara Logan, and brutally accurate. It's a little ironic that a South African has to point out biases in American media that so many Americans deny or ignore.
Let's see how much screen time she gets in the future after these comments.
