As oppose to CNN,MSNBC,and Huffington Post? They are all like that,just on different ends of the spectrum. The only real news source that is the least bias is BBC.[/quote]

I agree, as an NPR junkie, I listen to BBC often and it is nice to hear a world view of the news.
Good luck to him. I don’t understand why anyone would be too critical of him wanting to devote himself to his country of birth. Wouldn’t that be deemed “patriotic?” Oh…I forgot…that’s exclusive to our great USA.
Sean Penn states that Wyclef is a powerful voice for Haiti but his choice to run for President is seen by him and those on the ground as somewhat dubious.
He also alludes to the fact that Wyclef may be oblivious to the fact that self serving parties linked to him might have ulterior motives in Haiti that he is unawre of, or at least is too naive to recognise.
I dont envy Wyclef’s choice to enter the snake pit that is politics, esp. in Haiti where corruption and exploitation are rife. He has put his cards on the table and already the shit is starting to fly!

Yes, when you listen to NPR and BBC then EVERYTHING ELSE is “right wing” by comparison. You guys can’t be serious, or have never really thought objectively about wholesale “media bias”.
Here’s one from the horse’s mouth (Mika Brzezinski, MSNBC):
Yawn.
Boo-hoo FOX news blah blah… whiny-waahh..
Credibility? Like the legendary and disgraced Dan Rather and his false “Bush” papers?
Puh-leeeeeze.
You guys seriously get your hard news (and views) from NPR and BBC?
From the laughably NOT conservative Times UK (on BBC’s institutionalize bias):
[i]
BBC report damns its â??culture of biasâ??
Richard Brooks and Dipesh Gadher
THE BBC is institutionally biased, an official report will conclude this week. The year-long investigation, commissioned by the BBC, has found the corporation particularly partial in its treatment of single-issue politics such as climate change, poverty, race and religion.
It concludes that the bias has extended across drama, comedy and entertainment, with the corporation pandering to politically motivated celebrities and trendy causes. [/i]

Yes, then they ate it.
How do you get “vendetta” out of what I wrote? Are all kids these days this unable to handle anything that doesn’t coddle their point of view?
