I would add Jon Stewart's The Daily Show as another program that uses humor to provide aa more honest look at the news than most of the networks - especially Fox. Justin is right on!

Fortunately, I have enjoyed real time with Bill Mahr on HBO. It has been enjoyable for me to find a program that takes a humorous yet serious approach to the political front. Sometimes humor is the best approach to this presidential race. It has been refreshing to find a program that has the ability to engage me in the races, rather then bore me or force me to change a channel because of obvious biases(fox news). Shit, real time even had Ron Paul on (even if he is whacked out)!!! Imagine that! So anyway, lets try and find an alternative, because our mainstream media has been off the mark for the last eight years or so.
