Thanks again for the continued input and opinions. And for not turning this into RnF.

I'd say all Mainstream Media News channels are biased, that's my opinon on it. Any one of their news anchors who try to say anything which isn't handed to them in a script, get fired soon as the news are over. I'd recommend looking for stable alternate media news sources, if you're looking for some semblance of truth from your news reading.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned The Guardian yet.

The BBC is probably one of the best for appearing impartial, but their mask is cracking. The establishment don't like to be challenged and in this video they spent about 3-4 minutes trying to discredit a growing political party that doesn't want to be in a political union with the EU.

Also they called the collapse of WTC building 7...15-20 minutes before it happened.

I watch Russia Today (www.rt.com) and smaller channels if I watch the news at all, which isn't often, but with an open mind knowing they're obviously pro Russia and anti Europe/US.

OP, do you mean you are looking for more center-leaning sources?

Ever.

Kinda off topic a bit but to really understand the media you need to read Manufacturing Consent, seminal work written in 1988 (i think). Not inaccessible reading, and still very relevant.
