You must not watch much PBS!

Newshour (often in depth, nice, but biased)

Rose (who I like anyway)
'Need to know' (puke, obvious drivel for the brainwashed kids)
That lady that does the one on one
Frontline can be good, but when it's preachin', it really preaches.
Heck even National Geographic, instead of telling about the various points of an animal/plant/region, now it gets all Lion King circle of life bleech. That's a bummer, I loved it. Nova has gone somewhat the same way but not as bad.

News and, as the name implies, one hour long. If you mean by biased that it's not a pro-right mouthpiece, I guess you're right.

Well, the National Geographic (owned by Rupert Murdoch, by the way) isn't even on PBS. As for Frontline, it's in-depth analysis is often newsy and even political - but not always- so I'll give you half credit for that.

Nova is science, not politics or news. There's a difference, although the Right would like you to believe that scientific facts have a Liberal political bias.

Kind of a bummer, really. I don't have cable at home, so I don't get to see the National Geographic Channel. When National Geographic ran periodically on PBS, it was very entertaining.
