So I was thinking that AJ was solidly anti, then this popped up: I suppose it all depends on who they pick up to fill the pages.

Some African-Americans say tighter restrictions on guns rob them of their civil rights


These are their last two gun stories:

Out of all the non-US based news reporting agencies, AJ is probably the most upfront, honest and unbiased reporting agency out there.

The problem for Americans will be the bias they have (I have it also) towards the muslim world and anything associated with it.

I have been watching their news and feel it is far better then any of the networks that we have the ability to watch.

I won't watch them. But I try to avoid watching news at all any more
