The Top Ten
Fox News Fox News Channel is an American basic cable and satellite news television channel that is owned by the Fox Entertainment Group subsidiary of 21st Century Fox.

Least amount of brazen censorship and yes, it may have a leaning right spin to it, but no more than the far-left spin of CNN. I thought some of the news segments on ABC and NBC were less biased in their point of view than CNN, but really only use those channels for parade days on Thanksgiving. Fox is the family's news source for today. Thankful that my children can see the obvious differences between the news organizations. Although we feel there is not a truly unbiased news source in existence today, we will continue with Fox until journalism improves as a profession/industry.

Newsmax

Relatively balanced. They avoid far-right, unproven stories. It would be better if they became more proactive on these stories to demonstrate whether they are rubbish or not - receipts!

Newsmax really does a good and credible job of reporting all that is newsworthy, including what 85% lefty-bias legacy mainstream media will never report on. Keep it going, Newsmax.

They report unbiased news in America, and you can view them through their free app at any time. You don't need cable or a TV if you have internet access.

ABC News

They are very informative to me.

Thank you,

Most accurate and unbiased channel.

NBC News NBC News is a division of the American broadcast network NBC. The division operates under NBCUniversal News Group, a subsidiary of NBCUniversal, all owned by Comcast.
Fox Business Network

The best of the best for money market and business. They push a good story, encourage people who are entrepreneurs, and ask smart questions. They're on top of what's new in media, tech, and the video game industry like no one else.

Love Fox News. I feel like they are right on. The rest of them? I'm not so sure. Wonder if you can trust them?

CBS News CBS News is the news division of American television and radio service CBS. The president of CBS News is David Rhodes.

Least biased mainstream media site that claims objectivity. Far ways to go unfortunately, but no major screw-ups or controversial people.

The least biased and most informative. Great shows like 60 Minutes and Sunday Morning.

This is my favorite along with ABC News.

CNN The Cable News Network is an American basic cable and satellite television channel that is owned by the Turner Broadcasting System division of Time Warner.

CNN is the best. Fox News is a right-wing organization, not a news group, because it does not report the news. It promotes biased opinions, disinformation, and lies regarding the events of the day. Fox, stick to sports.

I'm from Romania. I think that CNN is the best that can be. They are so good I'm simply not interested in watching any other news TV channel.

Unlike Fox News, CNN actually tells the truth of these stories, so this one is number 1. But that is just my opinion.

One America News (OAN)

I'd say this channel is very underrated! It is my favorite one, though. OAN focuses on telling the truth, which is useful if you don't want information modified by the party you oppose. I think that Americans should conduct their own research instead of being very opinionated about things they assume they know, which is why I like OAN.

More news in 60 minutes than any other news channel. Some opinions but mostly news. Mostly conservative. Also, lots of international news. Catch up at any time of day. Only two opinion shows in the evening, who don't mind opposing the president when they see fit. One news comedy show on weekends. Best news channel on my TV!

MSNBC MSNBC is an American basic cable and satellite television network that provides news coverage and political commentary from NBC News on current events. The network also carries a nightly 'opinion' programming block during prime time hours.

My favorite channel EVER that I don't watch. I used to hate it thinking it claimed objectivity, but once I learned they are the ones who actually came out and called themselves pundits, I gained a massive amount of respect for their show. Still don't watch it but they did the right thing that people like Don Lemon will ever do.

This is the best station on TV. They work for the viewers, clearly seen on a daily basis. A+ rating.

Rachel Maddow is the brightest reporter and probably the most educated.

PBS NewsHour

PBS is unbiased and factual. If you need to know the news, unbiased news, get it from PBS.

The most balanced with excellent reporters!

The Contenders
TheBlaze

Love, love, love The Blaze! Yes, it's right-leaning, but all of it is factual! It's honest, respectable, and totally patriotic.

HLN
Breitbart

Good old classical reporting and investigative journalists!

C-SPAN

If you want to see the pure footage of what's happening in the Capitol without any commentary, this channel is for you.
