I don't know if all of their content is free but they offer a great deal of free content.
They do at least claim to be unbiased, however laughable I consider that claim (particularly when the guy covering the FL election in 2000, the first to call it for Bush, was one of Bushs cousins; it's remarkable how many people who said on election night that Bush won happened to be related to or employed by him. ) I don't think Stewart has ever made such a claim in earnest, though I admit I RARELY see much of his stuff since I won't pay for TV (in fact, I think I've overheard Rushs show at the quickie mart far more recently) and Rush spends too much time bashing "liberal" this and "liberal" that for any such claim to be taken seriously.
When I watch politics on TV (which is seldom these days since I'm so disgusted with all of them) it's usually the News Hour and Washington Week, but then I seem to recall the last administration thought PBS was biased (probably because it was the first news outlet under their management that didn't do as told) so I guess no one's perfect.
