I believe reporting should be an activist profession, one that does take sides and calls it as the writer sees it. Updated several times a day by a staff of writers, CNS covers a wide variety of beats including news in general from the US and around the world, politics, defense, culture and business. Like every good news service, it also offers cartoons and opinion pieces as well as special reports. Design-wise, CNS is hardly unique but it does work well for its intended purpose. The site is largely clutter free and easy to read.
Navigation is functional and allows one to move reasonably quickly through the site.
Yes, but that's hardly a problem. CNS acknowledges what should be a well-known fact in the late 20th century. The media is biased. At least CNS has the guts to admit it and still do their job well. All rights reserved.
