No, liberals, it's not your imagination. "Meet the Press" and the other Sunday political talk shows really have leaned more to the right in recent years........

LMAO! No doubt.
Fox News Sunday is an exception: where there is balance: Brit and Bill Kristol lean right, Juan Williams and Chris Matthews lean left--or Mara Liason...
This article is full of cr@p.
Old Leftist tactic. Make a completely wacko, unfounded accusation of "Right wing" bias. Then when the Right points out and documents the obvious Leftwing bias the Junk Journalists just dismiss the Right wing critics by saying "Oh we get accusations of bias from both sides so we must be in the middle". Just more hysteric calculated dishonesty from the Left.
They're going to have to lean a lot more to be upright.
Let me see... David Broder "expresses" an opinion while Fred Barnes "spouts off". No bias here. (/sarcasm) I instinctively distrust any statistics gathered by someone like this yutz. But if there are more conservatives than libs on the little-watched Sunday gabfests, maybe it's because libs are still too stoned from last nights drug party to appear. Or still hooked up to the bong.
Sort of like the courts claiming that they are biased against women and that dads get custody 70% of the time that they ask...
When the reality is that women get custody of the kids 94% of the time.
Are they kidding? Tim Russert has given up any pretense of objectivity and become and out right PR agent for the Political Left. This is just the whole Junk Media slime game. They have one of these morons go scream this sort of nonsense so when Conservatives point out the real and obvious bias on these shows they can point to columns like this and say "see we are objective, everyone complains about us" What nonsense as anyone who bothers to watch the shows can tell you.
Thanks for reposting this thread.
I see that I was pinged for it...but, I missed it.
I was laughing while reading this...it is SO WRONG in so many ways....LOL
I guess the person that wrote it doesn't actually WATCH the shows...just counts the (D) and (R) guests.
THAT doesn't tell the reader anything about the guests.
If they had Zell Miller or even Joe Lieberman on each week..then we might have a little more balance...but they don't.
