Rather bias!

When reporting the news many reporters do so with bias it can be noted in the way they present the news or in lack of facts that may go againist their personal feelings. This I compare to the foolish acts of many of todays celebs like Dixie Chicks, Barbara Striesand, Etc. Dan Rather did so on his reporting of bombing of Iragi hospital by mistake. He reported a hospital bomb yes but he failed to mention that the Brits has stated that this hospital had been evacuated several days before! Mr. Rather was showing his bias and unfairly influencing the American Public on what we are doing there. My Tv was sadly on CBS (I rarely get my news there) when I saw this report. Dan Rather has always been known for his bias which is why I dont get my news from CBS. But to make my point clearer when getting the news good or bad I want the entire news not what CBS or whoever wants me to hear! They do reporting an injustice by reporting only what they want instead of the while story! Same on you Dan Rather and Shame on you CBS! Angry

ITA David - bravo.  Isn't it great that we have choices - so many choices where we can get news, etc.  A friend of mine recently mentioned that she won't watch CNN because of bias - she prefers Fox News.  Goody for her - they don't have Fox News here otherwise I'd take her lead.  (Or - at least I can't find Fox News.... Huh)

FOX news is a cable channel most cable providers carry but you may get same type of reporting from your local FOX station (same station that ran Joe Millionaire)
