There is this topic that the Republicans love to swing around; the liberal media this and the liberal media that. There is all this talk about trust and being fair and balanced and the list goes on. I would like to take this debate a step further with my own perception of this. If we are to take a 'western' perspective on the media's bias as a whole (because all media is biased whether you like it or not). What this means is that I am taking the various social theories and ranking them by their number on a scale.
Since this takes into account all newspapers that I am familiar with, then of course it is subjective to bias (because if you ask Mr. Heston he'll tell you that there really is no escape from the planet of the apes). Observe
Left
1.Aftonbladet
2.Der Spiegel
3.Le Monde
4.Dagens Nyheter
5.BBC
6.CNN
7.Time
8.Expressen
9.Fox News
10.Some Southern State Newspaper available in Georgia
Right
By what I see as the 'Western' scale would mean that CNN is more center right by international standards.
