Head of CBS admits to partisanship. First, Les Moonves admitted that “…partisanship is very much a part of journalism now.” To which we reply, “No shit, Sherlock, if by ‘now’ you mean the whole history of CBS.” Then he said, “I run a news division. I’ve given no money to any candidate,” while standing in line for Obama’s $25,000-per-head Beverly Hills fundraiser.

and rain falls from the sky and the sun shines in the day and the waves crash upon the sea coast.... is this news?
It is to the libtards.
Apparently CBS was so embarrassed by Leslie's comment, they issued a denial. They say he didn't mean CBS when he said partisanship is very much a part of journalism now: http://campaign2012.washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/cbs-boss-partisanship-comment-doesnt-mean-cbs/588766
Liberals are natural comedians.
This is a "water is wet" revelation. If you couldn't already tell which way CBS leans, it's news program in the middle of the night (Up to the Minute or something like that) will show you. Around the time the consitutionality of Obamacare was going to be argued in the Supreme Court, CBS brought in a "Healthcare Correspondent" or something of that nature...from Politico. So, the anchor asks the "Healthcare Correspondent" a question that if I remember correctly was about the unpopularity of Obamacare with the public and she says that the Republicans have just hammered at certain topics/were on message/something like that and that the Obama administration just didn't communicate very well why Obamacare was good for them. Not why the administration thinks that Obamacare will be good, but that Obamacare IS good. And the anchor didn't try to correct her. Not that I thought the anchor would.
Objectivity, they name is not CBS.
The media in the U.S. is only a propaganda tool to pursuade public opinion in the direction of communism... which is well alive, contrary to what the propaganda media tells us.
And Dan Rather still believes the Bush National Guard papers are real.
He knows they're real, he typed them up himself!
How do you say you've given no money to a candidate standing in line at Obama's LGBT fundraiser? Fox gives conservatives a 50% chance to speak and so the rest of the media goes even further to the left. Moonves kills any claim of CBS to objectivity or fair coverage of so-called gay marriage with this stunt.
