You should ask Hillary's protector, Debbie Washerwoman Schultz. She would never allow Hillary to be subjected to rigorous questioning and debate. She has severely limited Democrat debates, and has scheduled them at times guaranteed to limit viewership.
OTOH, Republican candidates have debated in unfriendly, even overtly hostile forums, such as CNBC, on weekday evenings when little else is going on.

I'm just wondering They are fair and balanced after all That's a great question. What do you guys that are politically informed suggest ?... I'm looking for unbiased , non opinion journalism in TV news. How is CNN ? Fox News is a complete joke and MSNBC can be pretty ridiculous too ( Al Sharpton ? ), although I enjoy the morning Joe Scarborough chat. So what's out there for guys like me, not interested in agenda bullshit ?

So what's out there for guys like me, not interested in agenda bullshit ? I have been thinking about this question and honestly I have nothing. Looking to a network for news is impossible in my mind. There was a time when I devoured the news with several newspapers a day, among other things. I had to stop as the more I learned the "unhappier" I became. I have to guard against being over negative. I hope you find the answer and share it with us. I would like to know too. When I was a kid, national news was 15 minutes a day of Walter Cronkite. Now we have multiple 24 hour a day "news" networks. We have come a long way but I would not call it progress.

In television, Fox News slants conservative and Republican, but has a wide array of liberal contributors, analysts and guests. NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN and MSNBC slant liberal and Democrat.
Talk radio is dominated by conservatives, although several are not supportive of Republicans.
The print media, newspapers and magazines, is dominated by liberals and socialists who support Democrats.
Internet news and opinion runs the gamut.
So, pick your poison.
I most often go with Fox News and talk radio.

So what's out there for guys like me, not interested in agenda bullshit ? Your question is a good one, while the answer is not very easy.
A Pew survey found that of the media, nearly 70-80% are either left leaning or hard left in their alignment. It's very difficult to find just news with no opinion built in.
FOX Business channel is pretty good, better than the sunshine pumpers at CNBC, although, in its day, CNBC was quite good with Faber, Kerner and Mark Haines.
Your best bets are to form an opinion from multiple sources ... 3x-4x the reading unfortunately.
