Random Rant: "Sunrise" on Seven: An Exercise in Bias and Spin

This morning I watched about fifteen minutes of "Sunrise", the Seven network's morning "infotainment" program hosted by two boring-looking Personalities. One of the startling things I noticed in this program was its bias towards John Howard and the Liberal Party. In 15 minutes, I saw 2 anti-Latham... well, I dunno what to call them, because they were like ads but intergrated into the program, and one news spot on the new Liberal Party ad, which seemed to have no reason for being in the news other than reiterating the points made in the ad.

By the way, the Liberal Party's ads about Latham's problems as Mayor don't mention the circumstances of the problems, or the fact that Latham will not actually be the treasurer.
Political advertising should be banned.
