the press HAS ALWAYS been biased Pismo, from the founding fathers until now....-------------------------------------- REPEAT just above for Care4 !!------------------------------------------------------- press is not supposed to be 'biased' and is only supposed to report the Who , What , Where and When and then after being informed of those facts its up to the reader to decide the WHY Care4 . As far as making recommendations of Candidates . Newpapers may make recommendations during election season i suppose but thats on Opinion or Editorial pages but not while Reporting News Care4 .the constitutional guarantee of the free press HAS ALWAYS had a political agenda, that's the whole point of it.... it is suppose to act as the adversary of government officials and government and the politicking within.... thus, the ''watch dog''....Your "free press" has a POLITICAL agenda. Don't pretend it's unbiased.Freedom of the press protects our freedoms and keeps the government in check
More than a second amendment ever will
and being ''free'' means free from government stopping or interfering with their reporting and their views...
the press, has simply always been biased over the centuries... picking presidents or governors that they supported...
Broadcast TV, ABC, NBC, CBS... was the only thing that was controlled by the "Fairness Doctrine" which forced them to report on both sides of issues important to their community or the Nation....
What is messing the free press up imo, and their vast political opinions and biases of the past, is now most local or city papers, or radio stations, are now owned by a handful of big corporation
