Dan...as far as USA goes, consider that facts are facts.  That 99% of the
other networks appear to be "liberal" doesn't seem to concern anyone.  USA
simply presents the other side of the story...backed by facts.

I'm not sure that the liberal or conservative tag can be applied to facts.
Either something is, or it isn't.  I hear lies in the form of incomplete
stories given on the "other" networks on a regular basis.  I'd rather hear
it the way it is, liberal or conservative.

Just my opinion....:) shel
