Not really. If I can watch some news organization without ever seeing them before and by the end of the shows I can guess which political affiliation the reporters belong to, it's biased. I can do this with regularity when it comes to Fox News, because they only preach one side and are blatantly unapologetic about it. I could only hit about 50% accuracy with the other news outlets.

You're not really being honest about your observation, especially with MSNBC, NBC or CNN.  ABC News had gotten a little bit better, but the bias is still clear if you're looking for it.  CBS News reporting isn't bad, especially some of their investigative reports, but here's the thing.  It's all about what they report and what they don't.

I highly recommend reading Stonewalled by Sharyl Attkisson for some insight.  I have a digital copy if you're interested in borrowing it.  She is a former CBS News Washington correspondent.

Many people, especially millennials and people on the left have the idea in their minds that FOX News doesn't report fairly and that they are biased hard right.  While they are biased to the right, they pretty much report the news as it happens.  Just keep in mind, the likes of Sean Hannity, Bill O'Rielly, etc. is NOT news it's commentary (much like Rachel Madcow on NBC).
