for US news, I watch ABC World News Tonight - seems like the most slanted of them all, so it's kind of funny. Is it the official White House network? I always wondered that.

The National on CBC is what I watch in terms of Canadian news. Peter Mansbridge :thumbsup:

I also like Ian Hanomansing, another CBC anchor.

Hmm, I have to watch nbc for local coverage, its the closest local affliate, everything else is from Chicago and I live in Michigan. I like abc (I loved P Jennings) for dinner news and I am a headline news junkie.

All major news outlets are garbage. All they do is pick and choose which stories they feel like running from the AP or Reuters.

Used to be a CNN watcher, but Klein has screwed the network up so much in his year there that I'm now a loyal Fox News viewer. In retrospect, maybe it's a good thing Klein screwed it up so badly, I'm now watching a superior network as a result. :)

Yup. If I had to pick from the list, I would say MSNBC (I think they cover the financial end of things better). I ended up choosing other as BBC beats out all others.

Talking about actual news, not some one with air time making fun of Bush or the Fox News Channel.

I've watched both The Daily Show and the Fox News Channel. They have about the same level of credibility, but the Daily Show is funnier and I don't feel dumb after watching it.

Usually CNN if I want news, usually political. It might be a bit liberal, but at the end of the day, its more a news channel than fox. Fox is just wacko right wing analyst after analyst. I do watch oreilly almost every day just for the entertainment value, cause he is such a douchebag.

If Im bored and I need to hear about a crisis to make me feel better about myself, Ill watch fox news. Its like every ten seconds FOX NEWS ALERT!! This just in, theres a car crash on I-95. Was it terrorists?!?!??

I cant believe people can actually take fox news seriously. It is by FAR the most entertaining I guess.

QFt. Fox news is a joke.

OP, you missed one. BBC news

I wish I had BBC news here. It's way better than any of the American TV news. I agree with EatSpam's comment too.
