No need to apologize! I seem to have misunderstood your intent, and am now realizing my comment sounded pretty hostile. Sorry about that!

What I'm trying to say is that it's kind of worrying that a pair of comedy shows are legitimately more thoughtful and better sources of news than most news programming in the United States, that it's worrying that politics is so depressing and so alienating and so full of hostility, and that even the more thoughtful popular news sources are still full of unconscious bias and present a very selective understanding of the world.

I agree. Not going to say I don't ever enjoy programs where there's a clear bias (some of MSNBC's coverage) because I'd be lying, but you're correct in that most news media is biased in one way or another. Of course I can see how that can be troubling, but at this point it just seems impossible that anything is ever going to change that. I suppose I've gotten used to the idea.
