My point was that on all too many radio stations today, ideology has 
invaded even the way news is done:  we suddenly have right wing news and 
left wing news, in other words.  (Edward R. Murrow is spinning in his 
grave...) I don't mind right wing talking points or left wing talking 
points-- those are opinions and interpretations, and we can differ and 
let's all debate, oh boy!  But I would hate to see the facts themselves 
getting confused in service of anybody's political agenda-- news should be 
unbiased as much as possible.  That's all I meant.
