By the news media. Surely you know this.

Based on your insight here, you must be fully aware of how often people like Dan Rather, Jennings, Aaron Brown, Brokaw, and the rest of the bunch (I’ll even include Fox) proclaim objectivity. But at least Fox shows their true colors by offering the American flag up front so all can see it.

This is the problem, people who don’t know any better are made to believe that their anchorperson the their organization are not politically motivated/biased when it comes to the spin they give a news story.

I believe it’s imperative for us to not only recognize it, but to demand their honesty in their bias, PUBLICLY.

That way we have the truth in it’s proper context, as it should be.
