Do you believe certain news media outlets are attempting to resolve their market share problem by appearing to support conservative or right leaning positions? If so, does this represent a true change in ideology or is it merely expediency for the sake of corporate profits?
I think CNN is trying to rewrite a formula that has worked on FOX, namely trying to make news interesting by making it controversial. Do you watch O'Reilly for news or for rhetoric? Hannity and Colmes? Or even the CNBC or MSNBC copycats? It is impossible to create this type of contentious debate without presenting rhetoric from both sides of the aisle. It is also impossible to create debate and entertainment without bias.
