Magik, don't you think it is a good thing to know the bias of any particular source? Let's face it, we are all biased. For instance if you told me a personal story that made ex-President Clinton the hero and a paragon of integrity and virtue, I would be more likely to believe it than if that same story appeared in The New York Times. Knowing the bias of a source helps lend credibility or disbelief to a report or story.

Especially in politics it is to often the case where my facts are correct and true and your facts are invalid because they are biased (in a way I don't like).
Let's acknowledge our bias and then present the facts/truth as we see it.
