The Nation is obviously biased in favour of the Yellow Shirts and they are absolutely anti-Thaksin. Where do people here get their news on the political situation in Thailand?

The brief answer is that they don't. The internet is the main source of 'non biased' information. Apart from that 'word of mouth' is the option and unfortunately that is of course unreliable. The authorities have blocked thousands of internet sites that they consider 'undesirable' or 'not conducive to Thailands interests'

but they are wasting their time, blocked sites are easily circumvented.

Yeah but why bother to read about Thai politics.... :D .....one big group of primary school children, versus another big group of primary school children....Woops sorry...I am insulting primary school children.... :)

The operative phrase here is "to some degree". But I think the Nation has gone way out of its way to be anti-Thaksin. Some of the editorials written during the time of PAD's occupation of govt house supporting the "democratic process" were downright ridiculous.
