Biased?

So the other day I was flipping through the TV satelite guide and I saw that there was an Obama channel but no McCain channel.
Does anyone else find this to be extremely biased on Dish Networks part?

Well it's just that I think we should be able to hear both sides of the political campaign on satelite

Doesn't matter who you vote for, you'll be screwed either way, because we all know everything politicians say are lies.

the CEO(or whoever has the most power) over at dish network is probably just an obama supporter. dont trust any politics in the media, its all biased no matter how subtle.

That is quite biased, actually, but since I'm hardly into politics it doesn't matter much to me. Still, I bet some of the hardcore McCain supporters aren't too happy about that. x3

But yeah, as Aethean said, we're screwed no matter who wins.

Did it ever occur to you that Obama's publicity campaign might be the one funding the channel, so in a sense...
There's a possibility that Dish isn't being biased?
McCain's publicity campaign might not have thought of something like this,
and/or don't really care to have a channel specifically about/for him?

yeah, as previously said we're screwed either way. it seems that the obama extremists are just more loud and obnoxious than the mccain extremists.
