As progressives, we love to hammer Fox News for their conservative bias. After all, aside from their laughable slogan, they make no qualms about being packed full of conservative republicans. However, while we're fighting the boogeyman of Fox News, networks like ABC and NBC are running news programs that overwhelmingly promote conservative views and attract almost 3 times as many viewers. Mike Papantonio of Air America's Ring of Fire talks about who the real villains are, and why we need to redirect our anger.

Truth to power - the mixture of left and right on the Sunday talk shows is so very tilted right. They think we won't notice, and the truth is most pay zero attention.

3. been saying the same thing--the "mainstream" "news" is more dangerous

because while anyone with an even semi-functioning brain knows what Fox "news" is about, millions of the same people still believe that the slanted corporate bullshit on CBS, ABC and the rest ISN'T slanted corporate bullshit.

4. PBS is the worst of all, because

it presents itself as "public," and somehow more civic and civilized than the commercial networks, all the while owned by Archer Daniels Midland, Chevron and Wal*Mart.
