Ours are so biased, especially with respect to coverage of middle east events, that Americans can not make informed judgements. You may as well be watching TV coverage broadcast out of Tel Aviv.

I will come under fire for this but what the hey.
I think al-Jazeera is the most respected because they are accused of bias by EVERYBODY, yet they still persevere and come back for more. They criticise EVERYBODY, whether it be China, the USA, Israel and especially the Arab world. They are officially banned in virtually all Arab countries, yet they find a way to get in (at the risk of being beaten) and tell the story. And if you look at "Gulf War II" it was al-Jazeera that was providing all the best footage to CNN.

Ah.... yes but don't forget CNN is not controlled by the government unlike CCTV
The best channal to watch is the hong kong news channal because hong kong is part of China but is an SAR which means it is more likely to have the least Propaganda because hong kong has no politicial status
