  1. There is no such thing as an "unbiased opinion." Pretty much an oxymoron.


  2. It's difficult to get unbiased information, since 95% of the media is owned by companies who have to consider thier corporate interests.  National Public Radio www.npr.org is a good one.  PBS's Newshour is a good one as well.  The BBC also is much better than any of the other mainstream sources.  Nearly every other organization has bias that you don't want when getting your news.  For instance there are reports about Fox News receiving their daily talking points from the White House.  They also lean heavily conservative as evidenced by hosts such as Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly.  MSNBC has leaned liberal as in their coverage of the DNC convention, especially the Thursday night after Obama spoke.  

    If you really wanna be informed, definitely read several different sources.  That way you'll get at least every different perspective and cipher through the information and develop your own viewpoint on issues and situations.  I hope this at least helps.

    Oh BTW you can go to each candidate's website:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_presid...

    You should be able to find every candidate you can vote for in 2008 at the website.

  3. YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN.

  4. The closest to unbiased you will get is Fox.  

  5. Just try to watch different news shows and read different newspapers that represent both sides and decide if one comes off as more trustworthy or represent your own views in government. If you're familiar with them and a source you trusts seems to support one candidate and explains why, you might get a better idea of which one suits you more.
