Al-Jazeera is my favourite news network, actually. It maintains journalistic neutrality outside of its editorials, avoiding the sensationalism that plagues other media, and it has the widest reach of foreign correspondents of any news network I've ever watched. Their reporters go to some of the most dangerous places in the world, reporting on international incidents that most other networks seem to ignore. They actually seem to have a sense of responsibility to their audience, as they cover the whole world, even the most overlooked and unheard of conflicts, bringing attention to situations that would otherwise go unnoticed.

Im going to have to say the BBC but a special mention goes to Al-Jazeera for covering all sorts of stuff very well, and yeah.

I watch Fox News because they are the most reliable, accurate and unbia.....sorry couldn't finish that and keep my soul. Anyway I watch a myriad of news groups and make my own decision. I really only watch Fox 'News' when I want to laugh or argue with my tv. Now if you will excuse me I have to go wash now because I feel so dirty.

They are all bias to such an incredible degree, especially on international affarirs.

Mostly Fox, because that's all that comes on my AM radio. Anything else I just get from the front page of Yahoo.com. The only annoying thing is that Yahoo thinks some celebrity changing her hairstyle is far more newsworthy than say, what Obama is doing in Asia.

Personally, I'm rather fond of NPR. Still, they cooperate a lot with the BBC (who I've seen and heard good things about), so I think I'll go with them.

Comedy central is the only group providing serious news.

The ABC (Australia), as we seem to end up watching their news at dinner every night while i'm at home.

It's fairly unbiased, although noticeably liberal.

Gotta say, the selection is pretty paltry here, so I feel as if the poll would be useless unless it had almost every major news organization on the planet, and may have been better without a poll in general.

For me, it's the New York Times.

I usually use Fark.
Takes news and editorials from everyone, and has a fair share of trolling, flame wars, and great humor, if I just feel like fun.

Actual news organization? NPR or BBC.

Al-jazeera is cool too, but being that I'm not an Arab, and I don't live in the Middle East, I don't use their news services often.

I get my news from multiple sources. Unless it's a major world event, I'm not gonna bother watching any of the places you listed... even then. Most events these days are plainly engineered and/or get major spin to make people react a certain way.. They don't even seem to try and hide it anymore.

So I prefer to just get boring, mechanical, unbiased news from multiple sources. The type of sources that shitty "news" websites use before they put their spin on it. <--- That doesn't mean comedy sites. It means literally people who completely change news to further their goals.

I only read game related news. I truly believe everything else (and probably a lot of game stuff, but I don't care) is completely twisted and obscured to the point of fabrication.
