Nowhere did I say that the NY Times is as bad as Fox News. All I said
was that all news has bias. That includes both the NY Times and Fox
News, but it says nothing about the amount of bias relative to each other.
You've drawn a line in the sand. There is a "right" that watches only
Fox News, and there is a "left" that reads only the NY Times. The truth
is, that line doesn't really exist as a line. If you really look at it,
the right and left ideologies cover so much territory that you can't
help but agree with a few concepts "across the line".
If we're ever going to come back together again as a country, we have to
throw that crap out the window. All of us have to do this. Instead of
looking for where we might agree, we're highlighting the differences.
