Yes, I think ratings and sensationalism still trump political leanings at the moment.

It astounds me that anybody who has ever read or heard a story they have some involvement or knowledge of, typically wind up frustrated about the accuracy of the story, and yet they continue to believe that all the other stories are in any way accurate.

A better indication of bias is probably found in what is not reported.
