So in all Larry Craig mentions over the last 20 years of news

If you really believe that Google News contains "all Larry Craig mentions over the last 20 years," then there's really no point in trying to take the rest of your analysis seriously.

1. My main point was that a more systematic approach is needed than the author’s. his anecdotes don’t have a lot of value.

2. I used the Google news archive as the handy compilation of MSM news that on the net free. A comprehensive study would examine examine how good a data base that is.

But doesn’t Google news cover exactly the kinds of sources the author accuses of bias and so isn’t that a good place to start?
