Not really, no. And it's not just a matter of bias, but they're absolutely shoddy reporters who publish unverified information as fact. They reported that the police had caught the Boston Bomber I think days before it happened, which could have seriously fucked up the search because it would encourage people to stop looking.

If I had to rate how much I trust their reporting, I'd probably put it at 25% or less. It's better than MSNBC, at any rate.

Sadly, many people dont even make it past the first headline.


So much this. And headlines are both sensationalist and misleading half the time. Plus, even when information is corrected, people remember the original claim but not the correction.
