No. They refuse to publish anything that contradicts liberal dogma.

The same is true of the social sciences.

We Tried to Publish a Replication of a Science Paper in Science. The Journal Refused.
Our research suggests that the theory that conservatives and liberals respond differently to threats isn’t actually true.

The politicization of the social sciences is partially due to the deliberate purging of even moderates in the profession. And it is driven by administrators in colleges who openly admit to discriminating against conservatives and Christians.

The same would apply to ‘the press’ - easily equally biased.

from link:

(1) Academic psychology once had considerable political diversity, but has lost nearly all of it in the last 50 years.

(2) This lack of political diversity can undermine the validity of social psychological science via mechanisms such as the embedding of liberal values into research questions and methods, steering researchers away from important but politically unpalatable research topics, and producing conclusions that mischaracterize liberals and conservatives alike.

(3) Increased political diversity would improve social psychological science by reducing the impact of bias mechanisms such as confirmation bias, and by empowering dissenting minorities to improve the quality of the majority’s thinking.

(4) The underrepresentation of non-liberals in social psychology is most likely due to a combination of self-selection, hostile climate, and discrimination. We close with recommendations for increasing political diversity in social psychology.
