Evidence Of A Liberal Media (Weekly Double Standard)...

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/05/28/opinion/main620207.shtml

"That liberals are dominant is now beyond dispute. Does this affect coverage? Is there really liberal bias? The answers are, of course, yes and yes. It couldn't be any other way."

any thoughts?

7. Here's a REAL counter-argument

which is more than that stinking pile of shit deserves:
Why is the political persuasion of EMPLOYEES evidence of an ORGANIZATIONAL bias? Would it not be a better indicator to find out the bias of EDITORIAL staff and thus OWNERSHIP?
This kind of crap is proof that you don't have to even be able to make a reasonable argument to get employ as a right-wing flack; you just have to to echo the talking point of the moment and throw in some filler that SOUNDS logical.

2. Doesn't say word one about who OWNS

the media.

Got news for Barnes--they ain't libs, and they CONTROL
the whole thing.

Jeez, how tiring.

3. Who are these "journalists" they keep talking about?

"Journalists" are employees of media corporations. The Corporate Media likes to hire employees that have college degrees and live in large metropolitan cities. Of course they are liberal.

Who writes the scripts that the "journalists" read on TV? Most likely, college educated liberals that know the way to make money and a career is by kissing rich people's asses all day long. Liberals are smart enough to do that.

If that's what you call a liberal press, okay...

6. Of course 'liberal' is never defined.

So is it really any surprise that college educated worldly knowledgeable people do NOT want to be associated with the NEO-conservatives?
