Not sure he fits the 'connected to politics' angle, but he always seems to take a middle of the road approach and lets the left and right wing people on his panels present the biased views.

Yeap, right down the middle!

The Center for Media and Public Affairs, in a 2004 study, found that "Special Report" coverage of President Bush was positive 60 percent of the time, while its evaluations of John Kerry were negative by a 5-to-1 margin.

Jim Lehrer is good.

I really miss seeing Tim Russert on Meet the Press. I thought he was fair.

People sometimes lighten up - life wears them down and they see what they've been missing. My prim and proper mother didn't drink or cuss most of her life. And then the last 5+ years, she started telling dirty jokes - some of them were even funny - and, it wasn't dementia or alzheimers.

I think most small town local Mayers are pretty neutral when it comes to state/federal levels.

I think the guy who mentioned Bill Moyers was kidding as well.

You have to realize when asking this though that there are differences of opinion. Neutral for someone who is anti-corporatism is not neutral for a corporatist.

You might also define 'neutral' - do you mean 'doesn't care about issues' or 'in the middle'?

For a politician, any of them will be controversial as 'neutral', but I think Rep. Henry Waxman tends to be a pretty fact-driven person.

Like, Chavez neutral?:confused:

For neutral: Brian Lamb and C-span in general.

If you mean most well thought-out, thorough and well researched Bill Moyers and Frontline.

Bill Clinton, unfortunately, for this country. I think if he confronted Republicans more on deregulation, especially of the banking sector, this country would be much better off.
