Answer to the Media

Reader tomj writes in a comment below:
i figure i have one way certain to respond to the bias of the aforementioned liberal liars. i have cancelled my subscripions and get my news articles free via polipundit and realclearpolitics....
Many more people than you may realize are reacting similarly.

In fact the New York Times lost 5.3 percent of its readership in the last six-month survey, the largest loss among the top newspapers. The LA Times, Chicago Tribune and Washington Post all lost readers. Meanwhile the New York Post's readership jumped 10 percent. The Wall Street Journal and USA Today also gained readers. After the LA Times' carefully-scheduled last-minute hit piece on Arnold Schwarzenegger, it lost at least 10,000 subscribers according to its managing editor.

Fox News is soaring and has more viewers than all the other cable news networks combined. And Fox News' ratings are already comparable to the broadcast network newscasts, which are in ratings freefall. And keep in mind that Fox News is on 24 hours; so it has many more viewers who tune in for a specific program every day. In fact, 22 percent of Americans already cite Fox News as their primary news source and it wouldn't surprise me if Fox News ratings were to surpass network newscasts in a few years.

Conservatives today dominate the Internet, with sites like TownHall.com and right-leaning blogs like InstaPundit.com getting far more clicks than their liberal competitors.

Slowly but surely we're tearing down the left's Orwellian propaganda machine.

Thanks for more good news in your reply:

This warms the heart of an old capitalist: "In fact the New York Times lost 5.3 percent of its readership in the last six-month survey, the largest loss among the top newspapers.
