Id say they have a "liberal" bias, not a left wing one. Take that as you will

CNN supposedly has left wing bias. I've tried to spot it but couldn't. I don't know whether the version I get (CNN international) is the same they get in USA.

IMHO...
CNN = left-wing bias
FOX = right-wing bias

They have almost given up reporting the news at all soo...
It's all local news now. Upteen reports on whose screwing who, murders of blonds, who won the ultra hype dance contest, and who is getting richer.
This is also sadly true. No news of any real significance.
Oh, and don't forget the weekly American Idol update, which is on the news immediately after the Idol episode. Blah.

Why do people automatically refer to US media as CNN or Fox? Heck these two are zits in comparison to the exposure of ABC, NBC, or CBS.

IMHO CNN and FOX are the more blatant extremes.

The left or right bias of the media is dependant on your left or right bias.
As a righty, I see the media (in general) as extremely left balanced, and they do so on purpose to get the all important tv rating. I also prefer FOX news because they more frequently spin the news the way I like it spun.
I am fairly certian that a lefty would fell almost the same way, only with the lefty/righty bias being switched and they prefer CNN.
CNN=ABC=NBC=CBS for all intents and purposes wrt to bias.
