IMHO all msm is owned but,

I tend to watch CBS with Scott Pelley. To me he was the most acceptable of the three networks. However after the 60 minutes show on Benghazi and no apology, i watched the first few minutes tonight and they were complaining about the ACA even suggesting it may not be safe for personal information. I think they have been bought out in total. will try abc and nbc for a bit. May have to avoid all and just stick with Al Jazeera and NPR.

Republicans were highly resentful back when CPB/NPR used to so recklessly spread truth to the unwashed masses. That's why they put Kenneth Tomlinson in charge of the CPB back in 2003. NPR has not since recovered, and it will never be the same again.
