Media Bias?

What I'll be doing is recording the top story at each 3 major news sites -- CNN, MSNBC, and FoxNews -- at one particular point in time each day.

This should give some insight into how each outfit approaches the news, and if they have any biases. It should be more illuminating during slower news times, as that is when each editorial department has the greatest amount of leeway to decide what, and how, to present to the general public.

I'll also include some personal observations as to what I think each site is trying to accomplish when choosing its top story.
