@Lunacyde: for sure. and any side interviews and stuff from Penns radio shows. personally my favorite episode was Violent Video Games in season 7. the topic is whether or not video games turn children into either violent types or even killers. the episode ended on a hugely powerful note and message.
Daily Show and Colbert Report are satire and therefore not real news. I particularly am fond of Rachel Maddow. I feel she is quit in depth with her research and presents the facts as presented. Regardless of your politics facts are facts. Not to bash any other program (except for Beck, he is total B.S.) but I would like to know who and why you listen/watch to the program(s) you choose.
" @castleking: news from international sources can be equally as biased. "
World news tend to tell the truth when it comes to american forces being inside a country or accidentally bombing clothing factory and injuring kids from the school next door..
i know they tell the truth when they say american ppl, soldiers have bn beating or responsible for kidnapping locals...
i believe them when they say americans have bn buying and using locals and foreign contractors to commit certain actions...
i dont believe george bush when he denies certain allegations especially when i was their and part of something i knew was wrong.

It seems to me that you are particularly fond of the American bashing news of the day. Granted, our country hasn't been up to par when it comes to foreign affairs as of late, but facts go both ways.
It seems to me that all of the facts that you have listed have been reported here in the U.S. as well. While there have been factions trying to suppress unfortunate news as such, quality news programs have reported and held those responsible accountable.
You fail to list foreign actions against the U.S. in your declaration. Where is Israel's theft of U.S. nuclear secrets and codes to create an atomic bomb? Where is Yemen's harboring of Al-Qaeda factions recruiting young Muslims to commit terrorist acts here in the U.S.
I don't condone the actions of my country or my president as of late; but I won't let someone make one-sided arguments bashing us as if America is the only wrong in a world full of them. Every country has done wrong, been wronged, and blurred the truth once you start pointing fingers you forget your own faults. While American news can be biased, there is a proportional amount of bias on both sides so the truth is in the clusterf@#k that is American news.
