I like that Fox has chosen to stand for the conservative side. I can dig up Democrat issues there easier(if I choose to). I think having the ability to dig up disparaging facts is good and - taken together with a liberal site, can give a reasonably 'less biased' view of things. I abhor their focus on opinion and editorials.
That said, I think the BBC is probably the best news service out there today. The others I know about are definitely biased. BBC seems to uphold a certain journalistic integrity ideal.
The WSJ comes close, but I wish it would be independent from Fox/The Sun. It's standards are perceptibly shifting and moving closer to the Fox's ranting.
I deeply want to be able to read an online US Newspaper by Real Journalists and know that they have made best efforts at giving the full, factual story from all responsible sides. I don't want to see biases peeping in and editorializing away uncomfortable facts or preaching a point of view.
