Fox and Fox Business are clearly bias to Republicans, CNN, CNCB are much more Fair and Balance.

Guyana Times say PPP guh win!

There are always leanings in the media for politicians.

It will be of interest to see, as the election date draws closer, how the media will endorse the candidates.

The media does not endorse candidates.  They influence the ill-informed.  And sometimes determine the outcome of elections.

Wait, wait, wait.....I thought by reading the ill-informed becomes, well, more informed. Good thing Fox News is not print. But then again you might be right when it comes to Guyana Times.

For ages, the media do endorse candidates.

When a network has to reiterate ad nausea that they are fair and balance, you don't have to wait too long before realizing that they are not really fair and balance. Fox is pro republican and always bullies their guests in the hope of getting them to accept Fox's biased arguments. O'Reilly is a bully, Hannity is plain stupid and Kelly is mmmm mmmm.

MSNBC may be left leaning but they bully their guests like Fox does. Plus MSNBC don't go around nauseating people that they are fair and balance.

CNN is more balance although they are usually left leaning but it is hard to blame them since the lest is right whereas the right has lost its mind.

I watch each of them for different reasons.

DG took them seriously and proclaimed that the victory would be at 60%.

FOX and MSNBC are on the opposite ends of the spectrum. FOX is very PRO Trump, MSNBC very PRO Hillary.

I think some of the FOX commentators are deliberately stupid. Hannity is an awful interviewer. He asks leading questions where he will give you the answer to the question as he asks them

CNN tries to be in the middle, but it tends to be more Pro Hillary. Mostly I watch CNN for the real news, FOX to get kicks and laugh, and MSNBC when I just want to hear all the good stuff about Hillary.

The major networks do a decent job on the weekends (SUnday). They tend to lean Democrat

 

I watch CNN mostly.  Just returned from vacation in Atlanta.  We went on a CNN tour and saw all the behind the scenes of the news, anchors, journalists, etc. Was very educational.  They took a pic of my group with me holding the mike pretending to be reporting a major story about Trump quitting.

Did you go to the Coca Cola factory? They have a really nasty drink from England called Beverly. That drink tastes like gasoline.

Went there about 5 years ago.  I remember I got sick after drinking it.  Spent 1/2 day at the Olympic Centennial Park where they had a huge concert.  The park is paved with bricks engraved with names of donators, and a few bricks have my siblings' names.  Atlanta is boiling hot. 

I liked Olympic park also. Atlanta is bursting at the seams now. I feel I should go back soon.
