Ultimately, NO media news effort can be completely unbiased or unfiltered -- nobody can simply discard their culture or intellectual 'lenses' like that -- but I would rather the US media adopted a stance closer to that of the BBC world service. They are as minimally biased as I have heard.
Some would probably say the BBC promotes the liberal multiculturalist agenda or something like that.
Wasn't there also some pedophile scandal in the BBC ranks?
They're probably less biased than some of the US media though, but what happened to Al Jazeera? IIRC they were touted as the new, better BBC for a while but it seems as though they have fallen out of favor again.
