Super's right - America only considers its media (which covers World events, I might add) as "left-biased" because America is right-biased.

When you take in all of Western Europe, the US and the Antipodes (that's me and Australia), CNN starts to look slightly right of centre. There is a reason the CNN in the US is different to the CNN broadcast in the ROW.

In a total topic drift, I listen to an NZ music only radio station mostly (its actually pretty good). Demographic is 20s and 30s wishing they were still 20s. The morning presenters, on a station with only about 4% of listeners, have a weekly 5-10 minute talk with NZ's leader (Prime Minister) and a weekly 5-10 min talk with the opposition leader. The difference in access between her and GWB is incredible.

Needless to say, with a show run by two musicians, the content of these discussions is hardly scripted. Actually, anything goes as long as it isn't rude.
