Biggest hypocritical douche bag on political television, see: Sean Hannity
It seems that every time i turn to fox (usually at night), i find myself on the verge of throwing shit at my tv when i hear hannity talk his normal nonsense. He seems to amaze me and stoop lower then i would ever think from day to day.
Give me your thoughts on this please, for the record, i consider myself to be an independent who is leaning to Obama due to Mccain's VP pick (palin)

Sean Hannity is easily the biggest douchebag on television. It's not much of a race, either.

If you think Hannity is bad, you should watch Fox and Friends. You've got 3 mildly retarded people parroting the same things Hannity does only they do it with certain amount of snide and style (Steve Ducey once asked how it could be legal to make fun of Sarah Palin). I've tried watching but can never get through an entire show without 1) laughing my ass off or 2) not being able to take anything else they say seriously for the rest of the show.

Here's a suggestion....turn off the tube until Nov 4th and only tune in for the debates.
If you're not willing to do that, here's a list of biased media personalities to steer clear of...
Hannity
O'Rielly
Olbermann
Maddow
Also, don't listen to a single thing that "strategists" or "campaign spokespersons" say.
Seriously, I've narrowed my tuning needle to Anderson Cooper (AC360) and David Gregory (Race for the White House) led programs.

If you don't like Fox, use this.
For the record, Keith Olbermann is the biggest douche on TV. He doesn't even invite people on his show that disagree with him and he doesn't have a conservative co-host to balance his show.
I also tune into Morning Joe from time to time in the morning, which is mostly tolerable while I half-listen and get ready for work.

I love that he got pulled off pre-coverage of major election events (speeches, conventions, debates, etc.). In order to hear his dribble, albeit funny from time to time, you have to tune into his show.
However, I think it's sad that MSNBC hasn't even attempted to hide its liberal bias since pulling him. They added the Rachel Maddow Show, or as I like to call it....the Late Late Countdown w/ a less-funny host.

I could be wrong but I think her show was actually included in his deal. I remember him saying something about his new show way back when it started and that there would be another show to be announced later on. I think it's pretty obvious he had a huge hand in picking her too.

Besides looking and sounding like a creepy child molester I think I agree. He's pretty damn good at calling it like it is.
Paul Begala is a favorite of mine, even if he is left-leaning. He is pretty damn funny.

I like him just where he is. I just wish that others who share his position had the same kind of neutral approach. I see it in David Gregory as well, but most of the other shows leave me disappointed.

I haven't been watching much of Gregory. I know him from his relentlessness in the White House Press Room. For that I think he's great. He never backs down.

From what I've seen of Gergen, I don't see a bias but I find his points lack a thought-provoking nature.
And I agree that Begala is the most entertaining of that "strategist" foursome that CNN puts out there for pre-election event coverage.
What are the thoughts on Gloria Borger?

Gergen has served in 4 or 5 administrations on both sides of the isle. He has more knowledge in his little finger about how Washington works than any of the others being mentioned here, but I do admit the combover is f-ing horrible.

How is that a bad thing? If I want to watch two co-hosts argue through the whole show I can tune into the Hannity and Combs show.
Just the fact that he calls out Billo for his BS is worth tuning in right there.
You can call Keith Olbermann all the Tpark nick names you want at least he is not scared to criticize Bush and expose the lies this administration has been getting away with, and to me it's worth putting up with his so called bias and lack of a co hosts.
Olberman is bad, don't like him, but come on don't compare him to hannity.
I used to think i hated bill o reilly, apparently O reilly's obnoxiousness is more tolerable than Sean Hannity's ignorant statements.
Yesterday he was chastising the media for being Biased to either candidate, and then said thats why obama gets off easy. If this little cretin ever heard him self he would know whos biased

You're right, there's no comparison to Olberman. He's positively unhinged. So much so that MSNBC pulled him and Matthews from certain coverage.

I mean, you are pretty well aware of his bias when he opens his mouth but most are aware of it before then.
I don't mind Matthews actually, though I have to say he seemed emboldened when teaming up with Olbermann on the coverage of political events. When he's the head man on Hardball he's actually not that bad.

I don't know about Darren but, I'm not on T.V. so, I'm not sure what your statement is meant to convey.
There's a butt-load of posters, in here, that comment on media bias. I don't know your feeling on FoxNews or if you ever accused them of bias but, just because the left can only find a right-leaning problem with opinion shows on Fox, whereas, the rest of us see the blatant bias in just about every facet of the other media outlet's programming...some of which has been admitted to by those outlets, doesn't mean I can't criticize obvious bias.

Wow. I actually agree with you on something.
There's nothing wrong with the Hannity's and Olbermann's of the world, as long as they don't represent their show as "news".
To his credit, at least Hannity as a left leaning cohort and will actually have people on the show to debate him. Olbermann just has people on that agree with him (and his cameraman).

Hannity does tell his audience that they get the best political coverage when listening to his show. It would be funny but ther are actually people who call in and tell him they only listen to his show for the 'real' news. The truly scary part of the talk radio backslappers is that hey are brainwashing their kids by allowing entertainers give them their news.

What I find ironic is that I don't listen to Rush Limbaugh or watch Sean Hannity and yet, I get accused of taking my marching orders from either or both of them all the time. The only time I really hear anything they've said is when it is repeated on the news or is posted in here.

Strangely enough, until Olbermann and Mathhews got demoted, I was getting addicted to their election coverage, because it was so OBVIOUSLY slanted. I loved Olbermann's analysis of Fred Thompson's RNC speech. Keith actually counted the number of times Thompson cleared his throat.

I think this was my biggest problem with MSNBC's coverage. At least on CNN they leave the "news" anchor to guys like Wolf "I say uhh every third word" Blitzer and have guys like Anderson Cooper and John King reporting the news.
On MSNBC they paraded Olbermann and Matthews out there, like they couldn't get credible anchors to do the job and had to go in-house to fill the job.
