Liberal media? Not in local news!

I didn't listen ot tape the GOP CBS Foreign Policy Debate because I didn't know there was one ( It may not have mattered. I have a limit to hearing politicians out-and-out lying, and one 2-hour GOP debate a week actually goes way over the limit). So imagine my surprise when my local news stated that not only was there one, no gaffes were made. So after a few looks on-line, and a few hours watching the Sunday morning shows, I was so glad that these weren't gaffes: Bachmann said the China, with substandard pay, horrid living conditions, and dirty air and water since they have no regulations, is a great model for our country's future; Perry stating that foreign aid is bad to give a government if they're not our friend, so much for things like development aid, and the Peace Corp, I guess; and Santorum and Romney stating that we need to either attack Iran or ensure Israel does; some saying that torture should again be part of our interrogation procedures; and all but Huntsman saying that Obama has no foreign policy other than to capitulate to other countries and listen to the ACLU. These aren't gaffes? If the local news said these statements are mainstream and normal, the GOP doesn't have to worry about a liberal bias in local news. But maybe we should worry about our local news.
