"The most centrist outlet proved to be the "NewsHour With Jim Lehrer."
This statement completely invalidates the study."

It does not. The premise of the study is that there is no rightwing news outlet. It ranges from centrist Fox and Washington Times to way left CBS,NYT,and WSJ.

billhilly, post 16: It ranges from centrist Fox...

But the article states "Only Fox News' 'Special Report With Brit Hume' and The Washington Times scored right of the average U.S. voter."Not identified as "centrist" by this article.

Also, the article states The most centrist outlet proved to be the "NewsHour With Jim Lehrer." CNN's "NewsNight With Aaron Brown" and ABC's "Good Morning America" were a close second and third.

Don't get me wrong. I too sincerely believe Brit Hume is centrist. But according to this article, Jim Leher is centrist which is absurd.

The study should have shown that Hume is the centrist and all other tv media is left of Hume.
