I think most people in the US and the rest of the world would agree that the US, on the whole, is more politically conservative than pretty much any other first-world country, (with the possible exception of the UK) so it stands to reason that the average American viewpoint of their media would consider it further to the left, while most of the rest of the world would consider it more to the right. Both sides can be correct - it's all a matter of perspective.

I totally agree...This begs the question, is this right justification of America ("right" as defined by the Founding Fathers) what is elementally that which makes this country great, or is it our slow creep left?...If I look to the past examples of left governments, I would have to say, no, leftism will be and is the beginning of our end.
