I've been watching a bit of PBS Newshour recently (easy, since full episodes are on Youtube), and if it's done that, it's done it to a far lesser extent than the commercial cable networks.
Also, you can't have a good news program without "delv[ing] into politics and political issues." Often times when I see similar criticism, the real issue is the programming is not 100%-yourside inoffensive, but you won't get that from anything that's not Yourside-Pravda.
