No Rush eh?... I lump him in with Sean Hannity, but he seems less self-righteous. I'll have to check out Colbert. What about Ann Coulter?

worthaboverubies -> RE: Which TV/Radio Political Commentators Are Most Objective (9/5/2008 1:01:27 AM)
Bill O'Reilly. I've watched him for years. He is very fair and will not endorse a candidate. With Sean and Rush you always know that they are completely in the "tank" for the Republicans.

Be sure that you differentiate between commentators and journalists. Ideally journalists will not show bias or give their opinion. Commentators are paid to give their opinion. Hopefully that opinion will be intellectually honest, not over stated like that of an Ann Coulter or a Michael Moore or an Olbermann type.

Thanks for the distinction...It does seems that the popular national commenators are the worst. Theyh are blatantly one-sided. Though sometimes I feel CW members here are paid to give their opinion too, lol. I just like the facts mostly. If the analysis/opinion is objective and easy enough to understnd, then that's fine. Just have hard time with name-calling, overstated criticisms, political excuses, exaggeration, accussations, etc. Just give us facts and common sense analysis! [8D]

I like Juan Williams from Fox among others. He is a Dem as far as I know, but he is fair and honest. On the other side I like Fred Barnes. I also like listening to his Beltway brother, Mort.

I surfed during the RNC convention and found the PBS coverage to be more "business-like" without the efforts to drum up something juicy.

Larry King??? i dunno, the media is littered with personal bias. one side is hollywood, the other side is the EIB network, if you get my drift... the opinion of the news sells...because people will talk about it.

quote: With Sean and Rush you always know that they are completely in the "tank" for the Republicans. Wrong, I've heard both of them take both President Bush and the GOP to task on a number of issues.... Agreed on Juan Williams, though. O'Reilly? Well, it's popular among the left to hate the man, but I've pretty much found him to be fair. He gives both sides a hard time when they deserve it. But again, he's more of an opinion based commentator than a journalist, so....

quote: Wrong, I've heard both of them take both President Bush and the GOP to task on a number of issues.... I can't agree with you there, tafkam. I listen to both Rush and Sean and it's with a grain of salt because they are both biased. Occasionally they will give the GOP a slap on the wrist.

huskarine -> RE: Which TV/Radio Political Commentators Are Most Objective (9/5/2008 9:51:26 AM)
we wouldn't know about him, because any person out there without an opinion represents nothing anyway. you wouldn't be able to hear their voice...you might as well just get someone who only asks questions and reports the news.

rcjames -> RE: Which TV/Radio Political Commentators Are Most Objective (9/5/2008 9:55:59 AM)
O'Reily seems to give more of both sides of an issue than any of the others. I do sometimes wonder where they get the "Experts" they have on, but other than that I do believe it is fair. The far left hates him, but so does the far right; indicitive of being in the middle somewhere. Thanks RC

I consider myself far right, I think. (Maybe there is a far right survey somewhere.) That is exactly why I like Bill is that he doesn't pander to the far right. Or the left. Example: Wednesday night he had on Sally Quinn who wrote that vile op ed piece about Palin and I couldn't wait to see what she had to say for herself. I was eagerly awaiting Bill to just rip into her and tear he to shreds! But he didn't. He was calm and objective and nice too.

I choose to wash everything any of them say through Word of God... discern everyone's word. For it is written In Romans 3:4 KJVA God forbid : yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written , That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged . We all have feet of clay and when people are anxious and want to win or have their point of view believed... well how true the verse above ring true. As I stated many times... any media that twists those who desire to walk in the ways of God and mocks them like CBS,MSNBC,ABC,PBS and CNN, well, it really gives me the mind set they call evil good and good evil. Therefore, I better think twice and look into who they promoting. When I look at their programming... even foxes (RED Dog)... many times they promote values that encourages evil. Desensitizing our youths... even ourselves to blush at evil...to not be ashamed anymore... then we wonder why our children will not obey... or why our marriages are suffering so much adultery. So I do not listen to liars... I examine for myself and do research. And depend on the Spirit of Truth... The Holy Spirit to speak to my heart. Trusting and Obeying God's Word. I do not exalt the idol of the News Media... the enemy of our souls laces it with many lies. It is like the serpent informing eve..." Genesis 3:1 KJVA Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made . And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said , Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? Genesis 3:2 KJVA And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: Genesis 3:4 KJVA And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die : Genesis 3:13 KJVA And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done ? And the woman said , The serpent beguiled me , and I did eat . What is the serp... I mean the media saying to you and what is God truly saying. Think!!!! We have the mind of Christ Jesus, so we have a head start... there is no need to be guilliable. P.S. As written in Mark 13:19-22 19.For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be . 20.And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved : but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen , he hath shortened the days. 21.And then if any man shall say to you, Lo , here is Christ; or, lo , he is there; believe him not: 22.For false Christs and false prophets shall rise , and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce , if it were possible, even the elect. P.s. Someone stated I did not mention Fox News. I did look above. Red Dog comes on at night and I find it very crude for anyone to look at. Many programming on fox is to be questioned.

Galatians 3:1 WEB Foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you not to obey the truth,.... ******************************************** Let no one deceive or bewitch you... study and settle in you hearts who the Lord would have you choose. Trust and Obey His Voice.

The last objective political commentator was William F. Buckley Jr. - and sadly he has passed, the rest are all posers.

SwedishCovenant -> RE: Which TV/Radio Political Commentators Are Most Objective (9/5/2008 10:49:24 AM)
Unfortunately, one must go to Reuters or AFP to get an unbiased reporting of American news - and even then, it's a throw of the dice.

csl7037 -> RE: Which TV/Radio Political Commentators Are Most Objective (9/5/2008 10:53:10 AM)
I agree that Juan Williams is good. I actually think Glenn Beck is relatively politically unbiased/fair; he's somewhat personally biased on most issues but aren't we all - and he's not really a "newsman" so he can be.
