Yes I am learning. The fact that America is so different when it comes to politics and media is fascinating to me and I love to learn. I am detail orientated and love to know the ins and outs of whatever holds my attention. In this case it is American politics and the media. This will as you say also help me to apply the same type of analysis to how it is here. I learn something new every day about what goes on over there and I have also been given a few supposed non biased news outlets that have been agreed on by several people. Do not know if it is true but I shall soon see.

All news sources are biased.  Knowing the bias of the source is useful in figuring out what the truth actually is.  It is also a good idea to look at source material whenever possible.
Wouldn't source material also be biased to a certain degree? How do Americans tell fact from fiction?
Can be but that is why you check with several sources.  Try to think like an intelligence analyst would, its not easy but it is a skill I developed when I was very young.  A surprising number of Xers do this on an instinctive level, they don' realize they are doing it.  Find out where I got my account name from and apply the five questions.  You will often understand a person better than they understand themselves.  Only princeofcats ever figured out why I chose the name Galen for my user name.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
