You know that your beloved FOX also buy news from them, right? They are the real news agency together with Reuters, CSPAN etc... You think FOX was in Iran or Xinjiang? I do not think that the issue is that the media is being biased at all. E.g. Where was the news from any station when the NRA fought for the rights of people on the FBI terror watch list to own guns and bombs? Yes even bombs. Answer : 0. They are just following the money. Why is FOX news is so far right and yet has the highest ratings? Because they did their homework. They know that more conservatives would rather watch punditry as compared to Liberals. Of course we are talking about the pie that is 1% of the overall TV ratings and that a vast majority of conservatives watch shows like Leno or Lost too. But, majority of the people that watch news punditry, are conservatives. So FOX play the music that they like to hear, and get their ratings. It is smart business. MSNBC is left-wing version of FOX who is there to fill in the views for liberals who want to watch left wing Punditry. CNN and others intend there to be a circus with both left and right wing punditry. I do not put them in real news category like CSPAN which tend to bore people. In the end of the day, it is all about the money. That is why no outlet dared say anything about the NRA, because that would result in a lost of viewers. Whereas ACORN is different. ACORN is an organization that are for the much poorer and their volunteers and associates are also from there. The people from the projects are different from the people in suburbia.When you first go there, you get a culture shock too. When they talk about being a prostitute in the past, or killing their abusive husbands with stolen guns, it is a huge shock and a negative point to people who watch FOX news. Do not be surprised to hear stories about drugs, guns, pimping and car jacking and others stories coming from these communities. It is a way of life for them. But that does not mean that what ACORN is doing is something that is bad. It is to help the very poor, who also have a lot of criminals amongst them... AP is biased?

Relative to things like the economy and Afghanistan it isn't much but it's ridiculous that Charlie Gibson said he knew nothing of it, don't you think? ACORN probably deserves more of "Democrats' Pet Group" label, now that you mention it. Until yesterday, that is. Thanks for stopping by. I'm done with politics for the day. Still contemplating abandoning this to write a beer blog. The ACORN story is, at the very least, a story that’s worthy of some attention.

And calling it the president's pet group is a little bit of a stretch don't you think? He did some legal work for them years ago. You're making it seem as if they're part of his administration. They are not. Stephen,
