I love biased commentary, I find it fun and entertaining. I don’t care for it when it tries to pass itself off as unbiased news. Commentary is biased (here for more info), that is the way it works. We as viewers are likely to see bias where none exists, this is because we have our own bias. So if you watch a show that goes against what you think, you are more likely to say it is biased. For more information on why take a look here.
With that you also have to realize that our news is “paid for” by us watching them, which mean that the more of us like them, the better they are doing. Seeing that we are biased people it stands to reason they would want to maximize their intake of consumers by giving the people what they want (OMG that sounds like the dreaded CAPITIALISM). So if we all fall in love with someone, the commentary better be for that person.
Perhaps I am wrong, it has happened before and it will happen again. sarcasm If you want unbiased news go read China’s news. It might be filtered, but it isn’t biased /sarcasm. If you want as close to unbiased as a humans can get avoid commentary, you want as fun as possible watch commentary…
First link is for information on bias, and the second is about the presidential election. Remember to read the conclusions and the WHY or you are going to take the information wrong. So read it all or don’t read it at all…
I was asked where do you get your news?
Well it depends what I want, real news that tells me real stuff?
One of my favorites, if I want to watch: On You Tube here. (The Real News)
If I want to read or listen? I go to NPR.
Then for fun: If I am in a liberal mood I will go watch some Rachel Maddow. If I am in a conservative mood I will go watch some Bill O’reilly. If I am in a destroy them all mood, I will go to the onion. OH, and another subscription I have is the young turks (TYT) on you tube. (Liberal views)
Edit: Fun news can still teach you stuff, it is just you have to look a little deeper…
Woke up, bored so I did this polital quiz thing. Don’t think it is perfect, but still had fun doing it…
The Quiz
The following are your scores. They are based on a gradual range of 0 to 12. For instance, a Conservative/Progressive score of 3 and 0 will both yield a result of social conservative, yet 0 would be an extreme conservative and 3 a moderate conservative
Conservative/Progressive score: 2
You are a social conservative. You believe in traditional values, and care first and foremost about your country, your family, and your religion. You dislike the agenda of the left because you see them as trying to destroy these things.
Capitalist Purist/Social Capitalist score: 11
You’re a Social Capitalist, you think that, left to its own, Capitalism leaves a lot of people behind. You think that Health Care should be free to all, that the minimum wage should be raised, and that the government should provide jobs to all that are capable of having them. You likely hated the Bush tax cuts, and believe that the middle class has gotten poorer, and the rich have gotten richer over the past several years. The far extreme of social capitalism is socialism.
Libertarian/Authoritarian score: 3
You are libertarian. You think that the government is making way too many unnecessary laws that are taking away our innate rights. You believe that the government’s job is primarily to protect people from harming other people, but after that they should mind their own business, and if we give the government too much power in controlling our lives, it can lead to fascism.
Pacifist/Militarist score: 3
You’re a Pacifist. You are angered that the United States thinks it should dominate the world through its military force. You think that the only time war is necessary is when we are in direct danger of being attacked. You also believe the US spends way too much of its money on defense, as we can practically cut it in half and still easily defend ourselves, and use that money to fix all our economic problems.
Overall, you would most likely fit into the category of Moderate
