Running things against the president was popular on all networks when Clinton was president too. It's sensationalism and all networks do it.
Still, I fully admit that most networks either lean left or are just easier on the left. You have to think though, from a philosophical point of view, people like journalists who are reasonably educated, travel the world and witness the things they do; will tend to lean left.
At least they are not as agressive and belligerent in their politcal leanings like FOX.

I think a lot of journalists had a certain world-view lo-o-o-o-o-ng before they got into journalism. That's the reason many of them were drawn to the profession in the first place. Can you think of a profession that has a greater influence on the way people think and live?
One has to be careful and always question what people in the media pass off a news.
I DO think the CBC must be pretty close to being just as aggressive and belligerent as Fox. It's just that they're at other ends of the left/right pendulum from each other.
