Yeah, I'm having a hard time seeing how Sean Hannity's use of "New York Obama Times" is the same thing as saying it's okay to hack climatologist's email, but it's not okay to hack sarah palin's email.
I'll pose this question like Goatman does.
If you hate something so much that it puts a bad taste in your mouth, like Fox news, why are you watching it or looking for it?
If you don't work for one of the various media-watchdog-groups like Mediamatters, etc, then the only thing you're getting out of watching the nonsense on cable news networks is high blood pressure.

Sean Hannity doesn't apologize and probably doesn't even recognize what he does as partisan.
Not sure I understand if the goat-style question is rhetorical, but I don't watch television, have cable or a digital converter - just the Internet and occasionally I'll listen to Nova M (Air America) or Coast to Coast AM. That's pretty much it. I try to stream The Daily Show but my connection is weak and intermittent, so viewing depends upon network factors.
Radio commercials by The Ad Council such as their "feed the pig" campaign make me cringe - so radio is limited by show, host and topic.
Certain C-SPAN "floor debate" encourage yelling at the screen, so it's true that mental health might benefit by select un-connectedness.
I do look up a lot of recipe and food preparation on YouTube - Good Eats is a fantastic show.
