What do you guys think about the Christian Science Monitor? October 25, 2012 5:50 pm RobVG

Just about every CMS article I’ve read has seamed fair and balanced to me. I’m usually not disappointed with the writing even if it contradicts what I’m looking for. In fact, in cases like that, they cause me to dig deeper.

I read an article about the consulate attack that didn’t sit well. It was by a staff writer and had a clear liberal bias. I kept reading though because he claimed to have been an “analyst in the intelligence community”.

At the end, there was a link to another article by the AP which opposed what the staff writers said. Well kinda.

While the CSM remained fair, you had to look for it.
