will they be all over the republican convention like they are the democratic convention?

Only if McCain picks Alan Keyes as his running mate.

To start with, I'm shocked, SHOCKED, you are watching BET. But to answer your question, yes, they plan to cover the GOP convention the same way they are covering the Dems.

Why can't I watch BET? Because I'm white? Isn't that a race driven decision on your behalf?

I just find it troubling that a network that many teens watch will build Obama up. If they do cover the GOP convention, I highly doubt McCain will be given equal opportunity.

This thread is racist.

Most educated, politically-aware, and socially conscious/conscientious Black people have no idea that BET is covering the Democratic National Convention. In fact, I didn't know it until you started this thread. Seriously.

That should tell you something.

I didn't say you can't watch BET, I said I'm shocked you are watching BET. Their demographics don't exactly say conservative white southerner.

I, too, find it troubling that a network builds up McCain (Fox News). But I guess the difference is that it's only old people watching Fox.

FoxNews compared to what...CNN? MSNBC? Two networks that are pro democrat. And yet, the democrats are so quick to jump on FoxNews. I guess its because FoxNews is the most watched cable news network, if that makes sense.

Ahhh yes, the "liberal media" claim. If only it were true.

Yeah, these right loonies think its liberal because thats what their guys(Beck, Rush, Hannitty) keeps telling them and shove down their throats. Countless studies have been down that prove it to be wrong, but like Clinton has said "I like that about the Republicans; the evidence does not faze them, they are not bothered at all by the facts.”

This quote alone has proven its worth here. You can't argue facts, but the right loonies here will post till their blue in the face blaming everyone but their own. FoxNews is nothing more than a mouthpiece of the current administration, a propaganda machine, which is actually frightening to fathom but its happened.

CNN is as balanced as a 24 hour news organization can be. MSNBC is pro liberal in their views, but they will allow for access to both parties.

You have to understand that FoxNews uses psychology with its own viewers....why does a news organization have to continually tell its viewers its "Fair and Balanced"? So you don't question their motives.

Makes perfect sense. If anyone capable of thinking for himself/herself wants to watch reasonably balanced news, there are numerous networks to choose from. For the rest of you, there's Fox.

I can't believe that you guys are serious when you say that there isn't a bias in the media

BIG, you should temper your self-evaluation with a little humility. It would make you more likeable

Of course there is. They all heavily lean towards money.
