Edit: know this isn't quite the 'right' spot for this...but seemed the closest we had here

I took a history paper on this sort of thing. It was called history for historians and gave a ran down of the different types of historians over the years, in that we covered media bias as newspapers/ record takers create a slanted and often incomplete view of history.

I haven't been able to watch or read much "news" since I took that class, it kind of ruined it for me.

Ignorance is bliss sometimes!

Man. My newspaper must be the bomb because our editors rail over ANY of this stuff happening. We don't print anything until it's been read by at least three different people to be screened for all this, and really major stuff has to even go through the owner/publisher.
