As the old media continues to wither on the vine, the tread has started for total bias in news collecting and reporting. It is the lefts response to the right's World Net Daily, Drudge Report, News Max, etc.: The problem with the left and the news is it is hard to be honest in protecting their agenda of deceit, i.e., global warming, the Constitution, euthanasia, fascism of communism, etc.

Arianna Huffington I'm delighted that today we are launching a new venture -- The Huffington Post Investigative Fund. This nonprofit Fund will produce a wide-range of investigative journalism created by both staff reporters and freelance writers.

As a result, all who recognize the indispensable role good journalism plays in our democracy are looking for ways to preserve it during this transitional period for the media.
