Sunday Morning News Programs = Most Informative and Objective?
Does it change from week to week or is it possible to make any generalizations regarding which Sunday news programs are most informative and objective.

FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network)

MEET THE PRESS (NBC)

FACE THE NATION (CBS)

THIS WEEK (ABC)

STATE OF THE UNION (CNN)

GPS with Fareed Zajakaria (CNN)

Personally, I have liked This week recently, because Krugman really knows his stuff inside and out. However, this was not the case during the election when George seemed to just allow the pundits to trade talking points. I also like GPS with Fareed despite its international focus, and CNN's spooky way of focusing close up on Fareed's face. Fareed always has interesting guests, and he understands international issues. His guests tend to be academics, rather than the typical political operatives.

What's your fave?

4. I Agree, But Maddow and Olberman Don't Have A Sunday Morning Show...
...and football season is over. So, I am just looking for the least obnoxiously RW partisan news show.

3. Fareed Zakaria's show on CNN at 1:00 p.m. on CNN...
and sometimes ABC with Snuffy. (I know...but, Snuffy seems to be leaning Lefty, these days)

5. I used to watch most of them. Not any more.

I can't stand David Gregory, so cross MTP off the list.

And I boycott Stephanopolous because of his shoddy questioning in the one debate. And his round table is just annoying. So that one's gone.

Sometimes I watch Face the Nation... if I remember and they have someone good on.

Fox = NO WAY, NEVER!!! :puke:

I usually watch C-span. They often replay events that I missed during the week.
