How do you figure?

CBS along with the other main 3 broadcast (ABC and especially NBC) are heavy left leaning....CNN is very left leaning, but not so much as MSNOW (used to be MSNBC).

So far, it appears the new lady in charge of CBS has indeed tried pulling them to at least center left rather than far left.

She herself is NOT a right leaning person....

We need some balance....everyone LEFT with Fox New being the sole Right leaning news in the US just doesn't work....I'd rather them all be center but at least balance out the left and right if that's the only option.

The non-Fox-News viewpoints of CNN seem to me to be worth preserving. And it's doubtful they would be if Paramount takes over Warner's portfolio, which includes CNN.

Look at what happened to CBS, in particular 60 Minutes, when the Ellisons' Skydance Media took over. One of the most venerable investigative-journalism shows in history has been run into the gutter.

Yeah..sad to see a lesbian liberal take two networks of "news" and try to make them more center based and less left leaning and try to report all news fairly....how dare they.

Well, we didn't have childcare provisions or maternity leave laws forty years ago when things were booming, so those aren't likely to have any causal bearing. It's also the same healthcare system; the difference is that there have been 30 years of legislative attempts to make it "more affordable". Interestingly, the only sector of the economy where costs have increased at a similar rate to healthcare is higher education, which has seen over forty years of "affordability" action. And please note the distinction between legal and illegal immigration.

Wish I had mod points....spot on everything.

What the fuck is a "net zero" HVAC?

A window. The top models come with a sunscreen.

Fuck that.

Living in New Orleans...with easily avg temps in the mid to high 90's with mid to high 90's % humidity too....AC is a necessity.

That's been long known here....can't fathom why EU is having such a problem simply using AC when needed.

This isn't rocket surgery , this isn't NEW.

Natural gas is common in many southern states....TN, AL, MS, LA, AR and TX.....I've lived and visited there most of my life and it is common.

I've only lived in one apartment ONCE didn't have gas and I will not do that again.....I prefer gas to cook on and is cheaper for heat and water heating than electric by far....

Thank you good answer.

We do not want "mob rule" here in the US...and if we didn't use the EC to more proportionally allocate vote weighting....then basically NYC and California for the most part would dictate who was president....and ignore the vast middle of the US.

Here in the US, you are a citizen of your state first and then of the United States....the state is what affects your life the most directly...and each state is diverse in its population climate, land types and laws....so they need to be more represented on a state level by the president...the Congress has a house with proportionate representations as a part of this too.
