I guess only the Times is allowed to slant news coverage!

I think the NY TIMES is the one who hires and publishes news stories from frauds as I recall.
So any who worry about new integrity should be ignore the fish wrap rantings.

ROTFLMAO! You can’t make this stuff up! The socialist presstitutes at the New York Slimes are worried about objective reporting from another fishwrap? Huh? Al Jazeera, Pravda or The National Enquirer are more “fair and balanced” than the NYT!

Given that the Wall Street Journal’s news coverage is very liberal (as opposed to the conservative-leaning editorial page), the Times is no doubt worried that the editorial page is going to become more moderate, and thus deprive readers of a valuable conservative viewpoint. ;)

ROTFLMAO! The liberal media have been vocally wringing their hands wondering if Murdoch is going to “ruin” the WSJ by inserting his politics.
YEP, just like he ruined FOX making ABC, CBS and NBC irrelevant in the news business - just like he will soon make the Times and Wash Post irrelevant.....no wonder they are vocalizing their worries.

As I recall, there was a study done that showed the WSJ’s new converage was the one of the most LIBERAL in the county, even more than the NYT...just the editorial page leaned conservative.
Wish I could remember what/when...it was discussed on FR.

“YEP, just like he ruined FOX ... “
Well, in my opinion he’s well on the way to ruining FOX, but for different reasons than the libs would say. I am growing very weary of Brittny, Paris, car chases and Greta’s search for the missing white woman du jour.
Now that they’ve consciously encouraged BOR to yell at guests and vice versa, it’s nearly unwatchable.

I'm sure Mr. Murdoch, the most successful media mogul in history, doesn't need business advice from a company that's headed for bankruptcy faster than Michael Moore can devour a honey glazed ham.

To: reaganaut1
I suppose, given the Times’ history, they would consider any coverage of Stalin’s purges, the Holocaust, or Castro’s repression to be evidence of “bias.”
Sometimes I really have to look twice to make sure these stories are not parodies.
But the truth is absurd enough these days!
