Hmm. I sometimes catch a bit of CNN or MSNBC over here - can't say I've ever come across anything that I would regard as 'spewing hatred'.
Maybe we're lucky to have the beeb. They sometimes take flak from both sides but that's probably a good indicator that they are neutral in their reporting.
Ever watch Al Jazeera ?
