[Vision2020] The Infamous Memo

[Pat Kraut]

I'm curious why you think Fox should be fixing their bias but I do not
believe you have ever thought the other networks should fix theirs. Fox is a
response to the other liberal media. Rush was and is equal time because
before him the conservative viewpoint was not on the air. This is not my
view this is in the view of journalism sources. I heard someone on Cspan say
it just Saturday.

I think the key question is whether or not a particular news
organization is doing what it can to decrease the level of bias or if it
is actively encouraging it.  Clearly, if that memo is real, Fox News is
not doing all it can to wipe out it's own biases.

Now whether PBS/NPR, ABC, CBS, or NBC are doing all they can to provide
fair and balanced coverage, I have no idea.  I will assume so until I
read about a "smoking gun" memo from any of those organizations.

I recommend going to the internet for news, and researching topics of
interest in multiple places.
