None of them. The NY Times, LA Times, CBS, CNN, Reuters, NPR, and AP are primarily mouthpieces for the left. The Washington Times, USA Today, and Fox News are mouthpieces for the right. The remainder waffle back and forth depending on who they think is reading their rag or watching their broadcast from week-to-week.
About all one can do is gather as much together from all sources and try to piece together the truth from the slanted BS the media presents. There is no single source of reliability and objectivity. Not a one.
I didn't think that people still bought the "liberal media" myth. Guess I was wrong.
I didn't think people were still trying to insist the media was not liberal, particularly after surveys over the years have consistently shown the majority of the media members describing themselves as liberal.

Keep trying to insist it's a myth though, as if repeating that mantra over and over will make it true.
LMAO, as if The MRC is in any way credible. AIM (Reed Irvine's Accuracy in Media), CSPC (David Horowitz's Center for the Study of Popular Culture) and MRC (L. Brent Bozell's Media Research Center) are three well known Neocon media-attack organizations. They are well funded and form part of the same Neocon Propaganda Network as the Heritage Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute, Americans for Tax Reform etc.
"Founder and President of the Media Research Center, Mr. Bozell runs the largest media watchdog organization in America. Established in 1987, the MRC has made ?media bias? a household term, tracking it daily and printing the compiled evidence biweekly in its well-known Notable Quotables, which also releases an annual ?Best of NQ? edition selected by a nationwide panel of judges active in the news industry. His most recent book, Weapons of Mass Distortion: The Coming Meltdown of the Liberal Media, was released in July of 2004. Other MRC books include And That's the Way It Isn't: A Reference Guide to Media Bias; Pattern of Deception: The Media's Role in the Clinton Presidency; How to Identify, Expose and Correct Liberal Media Bias; and Out of Focus: Network Television and the American Economy. A sequel to And That?s the Way It Isn?t is pending publication. The MRC website at
http://www.mediaresearch.org is one of the most popular and comprehensive conservative sites in America."
The MRC is funded largely by Neocon Billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife who for years has directed money in charitable foundations he controls (Sarah Scaife Foundation, Carthage Foundation, Allegheny Foundation) to be donated to conservative causes, such as the Arkansas Project to find embarrassing facts about Bill Clinton, the Heritage Foundation, the Free Congress Foundation, and the American Enterprise Institute.
