Let's Talk Media Bias

First, there was cBS, now there's the L.A. Times. Anyone that still thinks the media doesn't have a bias against Republicans, or more specifically President George W. Bush, simply doesn't want to acknowledge the truth.

Yesterday, the L.A. Times ran a story about a poll that had John Kerry leading Bush by 15% in California:

In California, Voters Stay in Kerry's Corner

California voters remain strongly in favor of ousting President Bush and replacing him with Sen. John F. Kerry ... With the election less than six weeks away, the findings suggest that California is all but locked down.

But on August 26th, the same L.A. Times ran a story about a poll that had George W. Bush leading John Kerry by 16% in Arizona:

Growing Arizona in Campaign Play

A poll taken for the Arizona Republic and released last week showed Bush ahead of Kerry, 54% to 38%. With 10 electoral votes, Arizona is one of the biggest prizes among swing states in the West.

The L.A. Times is showing their blatant disregard for journalistic neutrality and presenting their bias in their reporting. When referring to a 15% lead for Kerry in California (55-40), they call the state "locked down" and when referring to a 16% lead for Bush in Arizona (54-38), they call the state "in play".

What will it take for you folks to finally admit the liberal bias in the mainstream media?

Title is redundant. Please fix. Thanks.

The arrogant bias of the MSM has become unbounded. C^BS is just the first to be exposed. I posted this, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1226687/posts from AP via Yahoo. If we care about honest reporting with an objective presentation of the facts, then we must fight this at every turn. I want to see the MSM going down in flames because of their liberal bias.
