A poll today asked why MSNBC claims to be unbiased. I've never heard them say that.
We all know they are biased to the left, just as Fox is biased to the right. MSNBC doctors things just as Fox does (removing applause from videos).
If you want unbiased you need to go outside America. BBC, Al Jazeera or read the Economist. It ain't hard. For those who expect American news channels to be unbiased you're looking in the wrong place.

To answer your question though, unbiased is not something any media outlet is. For that matter, it is not something any human being is. That being the case, all journalists generally have to work with on any network is credibility. MSNBC is not very noteworthy because their bias is exactly what you would expect it to be. Most media, just like academia, is overwhelmingly left. MSNBC is just slightly more brazenly left that the norm.
If we are to measure credibility by something tangible like audience share and percentages, MSNBC fails miserably.
We need to do something about that.................
I prefer the rather dry, but much more direct, writing of the Wall Street Journal.
