Confronting media bias doesn’t work. Media bias was continually confronted this election. Not a night went by we didn’t hear about it in one form or another. “If Ronald Reagan had done this in Libya...” blah, blah, blah.
Instead of confronting media bias, conservatives need to find a new media better, faster, and more entertaining than the old media, or we need to own at least one more of the old media outlets.
Until that time, it will continue to be common that most voters think BenGhazi is a new icy-hot version of BenGay.
Confronting the media was not done by the candidates, they are the ones that can penetrate the media control (maybe). For example look at the way Newt parried a question about abortion by asking why ‘there are never questions about partial birth abortion’. If Akin and Mourdock had done the same it could have avoided some serious damage. Romney could have done the same about fast and furious and other topics. I don’t know how he avoided learning anything from Gingrich.
