For you folks calling media "Liberal", here is a response.

Media in general besides Fox is "liberal" why? As a former 7 year news director, I can tell you that most news writers, reporters, and anchors see it all. They are right there with the rest and see all the ugliness of America and the rest of the world. And by seeing it all, and reading it all, you cannot help but "become" liberal. Why? because they SEE IT ALL. I cannot get over media being called "Liberal". Then the BBC is as well, and that's not even American. But is totally unbiased news.

You will also find it interesting to know that most news media and media folk in general are democratic voters. Why? See the previous assertion. The authoritative news source, Associated Press is labeled as "liberal". I find that funny, because ALL news sources use it.

And please don't go there with the extreme cases or the exceptions to the rule. Media as it is taught in college is to be unbiased and all sources documented. As one investigates and researches events, it certainly would expose one to everything.

So as people go on and on about media, I would love for someone that actually WORKED in media to make the same assertion sans Fox. For all media sources to be neutral compared to ONE news source, I am finding it hard to swallow anything from that one source.

This is too funny.

"Palin Doesn't Know History of The Pledge of Allegiance" "Sarah Palin's 17yr old daughter is pregnant" "Palin is more experience because Russia is closer to AK" "Sarah Pain's Mother-In-Law may not vote for her" ...

Do you really think these are innocent headlines? Just for the sake of information?

OK then shrug
