Now with satelite, why not English transmissions from South Africa (a pretty good news source) and other places outside the borders of the US. All the ones you mention below seem to carry the same bias. I quite watching CNN when a ferry sank in the Baltic sea with around 1000 people drowning and they sent "live to your very couch 24 hours a day" of the invasion of Grenada (sp?), with marines walking around drinking coffee. Not a word about the catastophe in the Baltic for about 20 hours, and then only in a parenthetical remark. Journalism is not what it used to be :) Daniel On Mon, 17 Feb 2003, Austin Franklin wrote: > > > Let me try to disengage here, Austin, as I consider you a friend and > > don't want to see this deteriorate - and simply note that if that's the > > impression you have, you haven't been reading the "liberal" press very > > carefully for the past 18 months. ;-) > > B.D., > > I have not been reading the "press" carefully, but I do watch the news I get > on my satellite dish (CNBC, FoxNews, WGN (Chicago), CNN and some Tennessee > major affiliate station), and in what news papers I see every now and then, > one being the Boston Globe...and I also get a lot of news on-line.
