Which is why I listen to NPR. It may be liberal in many ways, but they report the WHOLE truth. How do you know? That's actually a serious question, I wasn't being flippant. I can cite 2 specific examples where NPR left out critical information from stories (which I'll spare you unless you want to hear them). And that's a lot, considering how rarely I can stomach listening to their biased reporting. Jim Rosinski |

report the WHOLE truth. How do you know? Well, I read extensively. I subscribe to two newspapers, Newsweek, and (of course) I read Yahoo news all day long. Can we EVER know that we're getting the "whole truth"? Of course not. But NPR, due to its non-commercial format, does very well. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Business expense! The editorial page and the Leisure & Arts page (book reviews etc) are refreshingly and intelligently right-wing. The news pages are neutral. Some of the opinion columns are liberal (especially the weekly op-ed from Albert Hunt, the WSJ bureau chief in Washington, who is as left-wing as the editorial page is right-wing). I get up at 5 o'clock and do my online chores over cereal and coffee. (God, I love the aftertaste of coffee at 5:27 a.m., which it is at the moment.) Then I wash up. Then I go out to the road and get the WSJ, which I read over the second cup of coffee. By 7 a.m. I am alert, informed, opinionated, and ready to earn a living. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum www.pipercubforum.com Viva Bush! www.vivabush.org |

I love the Wall Street Journal! Sadly, the WSJ distributor in Iowa City is such a useless piece of crap that I can't stomach the thought of paying for the kind of horrible customer service they provide. Their idea of "service" is to throw the paper in the street. It's one of the downsides of being in newspapers for 20+ years. I still know everyone! -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

It won't be there for morning coffee, but you actually get more work done when the paper is an afternoon pleasure. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line) Warbird's Forum www.warbirdforum.com Piper Cub Forum www.pipercubforum.com Viva Bush! www.vivabush.org |

Even better is Investors Business Daily...with it's higher quality free-market approach than the WSJ and it's Keynesian approach. |

Just to have a broader perspective. #m -- Somehow, some way, the Left trash talks "multi-national corporations" and "big corporations" as if they were messengers of evil, when, in fact, corporations represent the ultimate, perfect expression of communal ownership of capital.
