Good
The more opinionated counterpart to Headline News, CNN does a very good job of including all viewpoints. It does not insult your intelligence as does CBS News or Fox News.

Not so good
MSNBC is lightly better than CBS, which is awful. Two stars.

Good
C-SPAN tries hard. It lacks the entertainment quality of HN, but does deliver in-depth and varied coverage and tries to include everyone and everything as best as it can. Its highlight (and garnering high viewership) was covering the Rally for the Republic which was held at the same time as the Republican presidential convention in Minneapolis. Four stars.

Great!
Falling just short of five stars, CNN Headline News takes flak for being "liberal", when in reality it is far more neutral in that while Fox News trumpets being "fair and balanced", Headline News actually is without blaring that it is. The problem far rightists (and far leftists, for that matter) is that it does include guests with a variety of viewpoints, each of which likely irritates some partisan viewers. I give Headline News credit for truly having the "fair and balanced" coverage Fox News seems to be deluded into thinking it has.

Awful
Fox News is simply awful. It's the same politically-slanted, shallow and untrustworthy news that CBS News has become notorious for, except from a different self-serving political ideological camp. Obviously aiming for male viewers like Spike TV, Fox News anchorwomen talk like they are serious newspeople, but they dress like Playboy centerfold models.
Fox News has its die-hard fans, but these niche market pseudo-news organizations usually have a loyal following of stubborn lap dogs.
