Podcasts: Not an escape from spin

Blogs have one major problem, many either fudge facts quite a bit or fall into spin as part of their arguement. A few do try to avoid this, and thus tend to be good. However, especially with the political divide we are having, far too many give off inaccuracies of many kinds.
Podcasting is starting to overtake traditional radio, but falls into the same pits that blogs and radio have.
First, many podcasts are just distributing the same thing that you hear over the radio. NPR has many (if not all) of it's shows distibuted as podcasts as well.
If there is one thing a podcast can do, it's fill in a niche that one is looking for. Unfortunatly, I have yet to find the niche that I'm looking for. Looking on Podcast.net, much of what is in the politics section is very defined into one area of politics.
I decided to give at least one a chance, the one that tops the libral and conservative listing on Podcast.net. Both slots happen to be taken by one podcast (which shows there already is some inaccuracy in searching): The Jay Mcfarland Podcast. So I listened to his latest episode (9-22-05) to see if he's any good. Unfortunatly, no.
From what I heard, he isn't really libral. For at least the first half of the episode (Firefox bugged out on me on the second half), he was just on a rant blasting New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin. The main problem I had was that, while do agree the mayor does carry some blame, he uses the "guilt by association" arguement with linking the Mayor Ray Nagin with all democrats.
Although much of my searching is through reading summeries rather then listening, I can't give any recommendations to anyone. I would also like to remind people that because it is said or written, it doesn't mean it is true. Don't just try to find sources that you'll agree with, find those that give out the real facts, with spin.
