Should Newscasts on Talk Stations Match Hosts' Biases?

radiobum said:
Then there is the obvious issue of doing stories conservative talk listeners are interested in like gun control and abortion. Solyndra is a real story despite your political point of view. Then again I'm big on doing environmental stories so listeners know that Limbaugh and his ilk are 100 % wrong, Republicans are much more interested in the wealthy than they are of the concerns of working people and Palestinians have legitimate complaints.

I am encouraged that the most diametrically opposed of bloggers on this website have seemingly rallied around this one particular subject. Many of us have landed on the same "page", that NEWS is NEWS and COMMENTARY is COMMENTARY. Submissions on this thread amply demonstrate that regardless of our personal ideological leanings, we are all professionals. The media itself, radio, TV and newspaper, would do well to study our treatment of this issue.
